10 Guilty Pleasures

No judging now-they're "guilty" pleasures. I know they're silly...

1: Family Guy. I know I'm a grown up and all, but I love this show. Even while I'm thinking "this is the stupidest thing ever", I'm laughing. And, I could watch the same episode 10 times.

2: Celebrity Gossip. I don't know how to explain this. I don't exactly care-I know it has no effect on my life, but I'm fascinated anyway. I really love www.dlisted.com the best. I've gotten better as Britney Spears has become more sane. It's just not as interesting.

3: Prime Rib. I know it is bad for me, but I love it. It hurts my stomach within minutes. But a greasy hunk of meat that's pink all the way through, dripping with aus jus, and fat just glistening on top. I want some now.

4: Terrible taste in music. I have a pretty bizarre set of musical interests. I never realized this until I started adding music trivia to my trivia night. People always complain about my musical taste. My favorite songs, in no particular order: Love Shack (B-52s). Tainted Love (Soft Cell). Ol' Black Water (Doobie Brothers). 9 to 5(Dolly Parton). Famous Blue Raincoat (Leonard Cohen). Roses (Outkast). Anything by Sublime. Kiss Off (Violent Femmes). Who Will Save Your Soul (Jewel). You Know I'm no Good (Winehouse). If you'll notice, there isn't a real theme here. I love Itunes, because I can easily buy one or two songs, which is typically what I'm interested in.

5: Letting my wonderful husband do things for me that I can do for myself. I've always been independent, and I've never liked for people to do things for me. Except in college, I liked it when Allison did the dishes. Sorry about that, Allison. But there are lots of things that Jon does for me, and I love it. It makes me feel luxurious and beautiful, and kind of like a queen. It just makes me so happy to see that it makes him happy to make me happy. It's a cycle that results in us both being happy a lot.

6: McGuires. I don't get it still. I don't drink. But I love to go there. I think it's because I love that everyone knows me, and I know them. And, sometimes it makes me feel like a pretty pretty princess.

7: Coke/Caffeine. I'm supposed to be off the juice, but every once in a while, I sneak a little and don't tell a soul. Silly, since my irritated bowels are the ones who I should be keeping that info from.

8: Attention. I love it. Especially when it is because I'm leading a group, or because I look lovely. I've tried to analyze my constant need for attention, but I've recently just decided to go with it.

9: www.dooce.com. I check it constantly to see what's going on in her life. Why do I care? I don't know...why do you guys care what's going on in my life, I guess?

10: Laying on my couch. I love it. It is in the top 4 of my favorite places. I know I shouldn't spend so much time there...there are always things to be done, but it's so nice there. If I were a rechargeable battery, I would plug into the couch.

These are all guilty pleasures. Except for the dishes thing. And I can't watch the same episode of family guy twice. It's just not funny anymore to me.
