"That girl" at the restaurant

Ever sit next to a family member, co worker or friend at a restaurant and they change the menu item a million ways before they order?  Doesn't it make you cringe just a little bit each time they do it?  That was me last night.  I looked over the menu 3 times and found nothing I could eat that was Vegan without any changes.  It was a little disheartening but not surpriseing for the restaurant we were at (a Sports Bar with a million kinds of hamburgers).  I did the best I could and ended up ordering the pasta with red sauce and mushrooms.  When the meal came and had cheese on the top, I refused to send it back and make a fus but instead scrapped the cheese off.  Given it was only day 2 on this change I didn't feel that I had earned the right to be too demanding needed to go with the flow as much as possible.  

While it was hard to go out to eat and follow a Vegan style, it was not impossible.  I have found (so far) that this change does not seem impossible.  Hard at times, but not impossible.
