What is your guilty pleasure? I have a few. Buying a candy bar and then sitting down to eat the entire thing, dragging the process out into nearly a half hour. Yum. This of course is something I rarely do because, well because I’m fat and I can’t be doing that all the time. Going to a movie instead of work and stopping at Target to buy a bag of rosemary popcorn and sneaking it into the theater. I really love to sneak food into the theater, it makes me feel happy crazy inside. I equally love to take a personal day from work and sit in a bookstore ALL day long picking out as many new books as I want.
My other guilty pleasures include:
Taking a bubble bath every night after work. Reading in said bathtub. EVERY NIGHT! Drinking Coffee whenever I want. Buying trinkets off of etsy. Reading the entire set of “Shopaholic” books when I was sick a few months ago. Sometimes scrolling the Internet is a guilty pleasure when I should be studying or writing a paper for school. I’ve just had a guilty pleasure weekend whereby I’ve done so little schoolwork it’s been awesome.
Â
I also have a long list of guilty pleasure telelvision shows. I do not watch “Lost” or “House” or any other intelligent shows. My brain cannot handle that stuff. When I do watch television, it is “The Gene Simmons show” (seriously my favorite show ever….I laugh throughout the entire show, I love that family and I was never ever a KISS fan!), “Tori & Dean”, “Denise Richards It’s complicated” (something I secretly call “The Fun Bag’s show because seriously when the hell does that girl do anything complicated?”), Rev Run’s show, Hammertime (stop with showing us your Twitters..it’s stupid) and the Kardashian show…the latter is really addictive, I especially love Bruce Jenner on that show, he’s always doing something stupid. Ahh you get my drift? I also watch TMZ with Rick all the time. It’s guilty television watching and I can’t help it. I like to be entertained and yet not committed to having to see every episode or being on a television viewing schedule. I don’t have time for that. I also love to turn off the TV and realize that if I mis something I won’t stay awake all night wondering what happened. I cannot stand any show whereby someone has to win a key, be chosen, be dismissed etc. I watched one season of Rock of Love and I watched all of that crapola with Flava Flav and New York big tit’s dumb girl. “Yah boy!” Yes, it’s not something I speak about or blog about because it’s total crap and its a total waste of my time, but..it is my guilty pleasure, that’s for sure.  I love crap television, let this be my confession. Oh yah, I also watched 2 entire seasons of Tila Tequila and thought for a few moments that I surely was gay because that girl is HOTT. Yes, there I said it. She’s hott. I have no idea why I think she’s hot because I do not ogle women etc. I have two lesbian neighbors and they are far from hott. I wish they looked like Tila. Screw Angelina Jolie, Tila is hott. Yes, with two t’s.
But more recently, my guiltiest pleasure was reading through “sTORI Telling by Tori Spelling”. I bought it last night and read it last night until 4 a.m. with Rick sleeping beside me. Ahhhh……bliss. I like Tori and I like her and Dean together and I think their relationship is really genuine and real. I could be being bluffed…but I don’t care. Her book was a relatively quick read and she kept me interested throughout. I realize she didn’t write it entirely herself, but that’s ok too. I was entertained and happy while I read that book, something I can’t say about some other highbrow novels.
Yes reading what some would consider trash novels…that’s my guilty pleasure. I bought that book and hoped that no one of substance saw me doing so. I wanted to hide the cover of Tori’s book, but I loved it. I loved every sentence and I am now trying very hard to stop myself from buying her second novel until it comes out in paperback. Oh….I’m going to hold back on that pleasure because sometimes waiting is the biggest tease of all.
Liam is adorable….Stella equally cute and the thing I love about watching them is that they truly seem to love each other. I hope they don’t get hit by the “reality tv show curse” because I personally might cry. I like their happily ever after story. I like how they cry when they have to part from each other. I am a sucker for it all. I like Tori Spelling and guess what….I never was a big fan of 90210. I really couldn’t stand Brenda ever. I used to watch “Jon & Kate +8″ and have now boycotted that show. I stopped watching regularly about a year ago when I got tired of watching Kate hit Jon on air, belittle him on the joint couch and basically yell at him every chance she got.  The more weird her hair got, the less I watched. I’m not going to watch that show anymore and I hope beyond hope they cancel it.Â
I’m a smart girl, I read tons of books every year despite being in college. I still read good for your brains material. I watch the Discovery channel, etc. etc. etc. I try to justify my guilty pleasures……but really they are just that. Guilty pleasures.
What is your guilty pleasure? Do you have more than one? Do share. What are you hiding from the world?Â
I tend to not hide my guilty pleasures. Ice cream is my guilty pleasure as is napping on the weekends. I am not sure if it is a guilty pleasure or an addiction but I watch America’s Next Top Model, Survivor, 24, House, Grey’s Anatomy and Private Practice (I am so glad these shows are not on in the summer so I have no desire to watch TV in the summer).
My niece is probably my biggest guilty pleasure these days. Doing anything and everything with her – even when she is in the midst of an “almost terrible two” tantrum! The sun is a guilty pleasure. I know it is not good for my skin but I would so much rather have a little pink to me than being pasty white.
I am sure I have more little “sins” or “pleasures” but these are my favorites!
Magazines, books, and occasional sun worship!
* Kipping on weekends.
* Twilight. *sigh* I wish I didn’t enjoy these books.
* Gossip websites.
* Cake batter.
* Chocolate. Of course.
