Firstly, I promise I meant to wish y'all a happy Easter yesterday. Sorry!! I hope it was awesome for y'all, it was a good day for me too especially since I'm Catholic. You non-religious types were just celebrating a rabbit coming and laying eggs around your yard, while we Christians were celebrating Christ's victory against death.
When I was a kid, I LOVED milk. Couldn't get enough of the stuff, actually. Given the choice between water, soda, juice, or milk, I would choose milk every time and I have no idea why. Anyway, I grew out of that for a while. I think it was partially thanks to my choice in seventh or eighth grade to become a vegetarian. I learned that a cow actually has to be pregnant with a baby cow in order to produce milk in the first place, and that after the baby is born it has to be kept separate from its mommy cow so she doesn't try to nurse it. They're kept in tiny pens within the mother cow's sight, and she hears her baby's frantic and scared moos. Then I learned that you can get calcium from other natural sources besides milk, like from broccoli, nuts, etc. And THEN I found out that after infancy humans aren't actually supposed to be able to digest milk. A mutation makes that possible, so technically people with lactose intolerance are normal.
I've started drinking milk again, though. I'm such a hypocrite. Anyway, bye y'all!
Love from your dear friend and David's girlfriend,
Meridith
