I mean, if vegans can't have a sense of humor, who's gonna want to be one?"), but the blogger never published it. <br /><br />The Ben Does Life website was new to me--I'd never seen it before. But after reading that post it instantly went into my RSS reader. <br /><br />And yes, Kitchen Mage is a very skilled writer. That was an excellent post. Thanks as always for the feedback and for reading. <br /><br />DKDanielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02388302796031288076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37886248.post-84804442706505381752011-11-12T22:34:56.321-08:002011-11-12T22:34:56.321-08:00That Vegan Ideal post sure is, um, something. Ahe...That Vegan Ideal post sure is, um, something. Ahem.<br /><br />The food stamp post was really moving. Thanks for linking to it.<br /><br />The Ben Does Life one. I know of the hiding and the regret and the justification, not just with the addiction I beat last year, but with food and more recently with cigarettes. I quit smoking (yeah, again) two weeks ago after coming clean to Steve that I had been using my inhaler again AND smoking. More like using it so I could still smoke without him thinking my breathing was getting bad again. When I was honest, the solution also seemed more obvious and I had helpful, loving support. It's that honesty step that's so hard, because of shame. All of us have to keep fighting that.Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12439733116558336290noreply@blogger.com
