Sweet Dreams

It is currently three in the morning and man am I craving chocolate. It is about to be day three of this journey I like to call, Veganism. And you know, I really did not think it would be this hard, but I am honestly struggling. Everytime I go downstairs I am reminded that I can eat approximately 2% of what we have in our kitchen. I was going to go buy some delicious vegan groceries this week, but alas I am broke for reasons I shall explain in an upcoming post. So I'm stuck eating pasta, pita chips, and an unhealthy amount of sweet tea. But anyways, back to chocolate.
One of the reasons I didn't think this would be so hard is because I was already a vegetarian (two years strong, whoop whoop), and basically I was just cutting out dairy and eggs from my diet. That proved to be a surprising amount of my daily consumption. And one of the things I can no longer eat is chocolate. But in the past couple years I have discovered that chocolate kind of makes me feel sick, along with ice cream. It's a sad life I live, because if you can't eat chocolate and ice cream, then what's the point of eating? Am I right? So when I turned vegan, I thought, "Eh, no big deal. I don't eat it that much anyways, and it makes me sick so there's really no big loss". I was mistaken. Because it is in the wee hours of the morning and I am craving chocolate like a recovering alcoholic. I could really use one of those nicotine patches, but in the form of a chocolate patch instead. Oddly enough though, as I have been writing this my craving has diminished. How wonderful. Well this is an obscenely long post about nothing of importance, but hey what can you do? When you crave chocolate, you just have to tell people.
