Guilty!! Uh, Guilty pleasures I mean

So, we all have our "things". You know what I'm talking about, right? Of course you do -- you know, the things we like, but don't like to admit we like too much??



Well friends, I'm going to share my "things" with you.. some my habits, some my guilty pleasures. These may or may not surprise you, but here they are...

DIET COKE: It's my coffee of choice, and I don't know any other effective way of starting my day, than with a nice spicy diet coke!





BUTTERMILK PANCAKES: Most of the time, I really try to eat healthy, but when it comes to yummy breakfast, I CAN NOT pass up buttermilk pancakes -- especially when they're homemade. They are so delicious, and can only become better when smothered with butter and syrup.... It's only like 2000 calories... that's not bad, right?





CAMERA: I try to keep my obsessive picture taking under control, but usually fall victim to what I like to refer to as trigger finger... the finger starts pushing, and just can't stop. I can't get enough of capturing the moment, and then the next moment, and the next....





FACEBOOK: Do you love this website as much as me?? It is so silly in concept... to know when people are eating, mad, exercising, working, listening to music etc etc etc. BUT, that being said, I love it, and I love that it's a free ticket to put in my two-cents on anything! (NOTE: The games on FB are equally enticing... one word... Farmville)






YELLING: Okay, this is one I'm not most proud of, but I'm trying to keep it real. I have an unusual sense of patience. I'm very patient, until I'm NOT. Which means, I go from being rational and understanding to this...




SINGING IN THE CAR: I am a compulsive car-singer. Doesn't matter what genre it is.. Country, Rock, Rap - oh, and I even belt it out to the kids music (doesn't everyone love nursery rhymes and Backyardigans??) And just to take it to a higher level -- I'll dance. Oh yeah, I've got some insane car-dance moves. It's best when someone busts me dancing AND singing... I just figure it made their day :)





Concessions: My favorite part about any movie or sporting event, would definitely be the concessions. My hubby always teases me that it costs more in concessions than for an actual ticket. What can I say, doesn't everyone love a big drink, some popcorn, nachos or a hotdog on occasion and an ice-cream to make watching a game/show more enjoyable? I suggest they do!




STIRRING THE POT: In general, I live a no-drama life. But on occasion, I like to "mix it up", thus, I add to my "THINGS", stirring the pot... Now, I really don't think I'm the only one who does this... push someone's button, get a reaction?? Like I said, it's like a special trinket or treasure, I only take it out on special occasions, but when I do, it's thoroughly enjoyed!




I SHOULD REALLY BE....: Famous words, right? To be followed by... "cleaning the house, doing laundry, making dinner, ta-da-ta-da". Anything productive, but sometimes, don't you just need to VEG?! The smile on this girls face says it all!




SOME OF MY FAVORITES: Everyone has their favorite shows, right? I have a bundle, that I love to unwind to at night. Most of these are MUCH to my hubby's dismay... he keeps himself entertained by commentating on my shows, and he's pretty brutal too -- Like when we're watching Bachelor(ette), More to Love, The Hills, The City... and the following

Hallmark: There never was, nor will there ever be more SAP in a show than on Hallmark movies





PROJECT RUNWAY: I love this show!! There is nothing else out there that is more drama involving scissors, fabric and every sexual orientation. I highly recommend... and sometimes they come up with really crafty stuff. Makes me feel like I could sew anything myself!





HOUSEWIVES OF...: Okay, this one really is aweful, but I just love the drama. There are all sorts of seasons, Orange County, Atlanta, NYC, NJ etc. It's funny to see that people live so ridiculously! Catfights & backstabbing galore!




Now that I've shared some of mine -- I want to know, what are your guilty pleasures????

I loved reading that about you! And seriously I think you are the most patient person I know, you are so good with your kids.

K that was an awesome list, I thoroughly enjoyed it! Thanks!

I think this is my favorite post ever!! I was totally reading it while drinking my DC! :) My other really awful one is my inability to tell myself no when I see fabric. Even when we are out of household budget, I'll still buy it and enter the recipe into Quicken under the "medical" budget. There is always money in that dumb category!! :) {I'm pretty sure that my husband knows I do this and just doesn't say anything, because I've blogged about it before!!} :)

ooo.. I LOVE this! I can totally relate to this, and I'm with you on the yelling. I try and try again... but it just happens sometimes. I'm loving the Diet coke addiction (me too) and most other things on here.
