Enduring Vegetarianism

I got invited the other day by three vegetarians to a local restaurant. I think there was some sort of error in their thinking process and they thought that I too only devoured the local flora and not the fauna. I didn't know they had this affliction and it wouldn't have mattered anyway, it was a free meal as it were.
We went to a local Morroccan place, I immediately set my sights on a fine hunk of chicken breast with some feta cheese and other junk. There was kind of a quiet silence and obvious disapproval when I ordered this fowl dish. Then one said that they thought I was a pure greenery eater such as they were and he suggested I change my order. I replied that my ancestors hadn't spent 100,000 years fighting their way to the top of the food chain just so I could go back to grazing.
The shrub eaters were pretty quiet when the meals arrived, and I am not unsensitive and unaware of others feelings so I didn't point out how damned good the chicken was. I even went the extra mile as it were and showed I understood them. I said how sad it must be to be a vegetarian. After all some poor animal gave up it's life to feed them and then they don't even eat it. I could see by their expressions that I had made a comment that really hit home.
The place also had another feature that none of us were expecting: belly dancers. I was doing fine with the lovelies wiggling and shaking all over the place until a rather stunning blonde came out and danced for a while then draped a red silk scarf over me and pulled me to the floor. This was not an expected development. She seemed to expect me to learn this stuff in around 15 seconds or so. Her belly was rippling like a pond with a stone thrown in it and hips moving like they had a paint mixer attached. This was not something I could do on the spur of the moment.
She finally let me go sit back down and I dashed to my seat, both to get away and to find out if the shrubbery browsers had set me up. They hadn't.
We left a bit later and the tree fangers dropped me off at home with the admonition that I 'reconsider my life style'. I wasn't sure exactly what they meant but I did thank them, (after all they paid) and then pointed out that even though they didn't engage in any carnivourous activity, at least they got an assist on the night, since they paid for my meat eating. Somehow I think that kind of summed up the night for them.
I then went in the house and checked out the note the belly dancer had slipped in my pocket. I contemplated calling the phone number she had written on it (along with a rather graphic description of what she would like to do with me) but I resisted temptation. I am staying pure, after all sex is nasty and dirty so I am saving it for marriage, for someone I really love. Besides the price seemed a bit high.
