Yep, it's finally hit me. I wondered how long it would take and now I know. I want meat, lots of it. Not just any kind of meat but RED meat and I wouldn't trust myself around any sort of roaming livestock right about now. I can see the scenario now...a pasture, some red vino (of course) and a simple cow. Doesn't matter the cow's color or political views...just a cow and just sayin' it wouldn't look too good for the bovine. What do they call that delicacy? FRESH steak tartare? I'd probably be arrested or contract mad cow disease. Serious though, I'm an animal loving kind of gal so no animal is in danger of little old me unless of course they are hanging out in the grocery case...yep, here we go again...I want meat. I've got the glazed look in my eye and there's saliva dripping from the corners of my mouth. But, wait, a deal is a deal and I'm sticking to it - no worries my dear, Cosmo! Serious, I think that the idea that I CAN'T have meat right now is what is driving me crazy.

Excuse me while I go eat a granola bar and imagine it is a juicy, rare cheeseburger...ugh! Wait, a minute, is it too early for a glass of vino? :)
