I have been vegetarian since march 9, 1993---to be fair, i probably ate fish for another few months before totally going vegetarian. My mom told me that if i did not eat fish, she would not sign my papers to play soccer. Then she went to India mid-season and I stopped eating fish. I love fish. The taste of fish is the best taste ever.
anyway, it has been 16.5 years and I am debating eating fish again. I have been vegetarian longer than i at meat....but I am overwhelmed with the desire to eat fish. It is so strange. I identify so strongly with being vegetarian. I am not an asshole. I would NEVER care if anyone else ate meat, and I get pissed off when people ream me for not eating meat---but I do not think it is a righteous or holy lifestyle. I do not think that eating meat is wrong--it just makes me personally sad. But I am beginning to think I am not so sad for the fish. Not that their life is worth less than mine or whatever, but they sure taste delicious. And i like good food.

And getting caught is not much worse than getting eaten by something else in the ocean. Unlike the situation for most meat animals with legs. Let me know if you're ever ready for me to roast you a Polyface chicken.
