Jimmy was kind enough to bestow this award on me, but now I have to admit some guilty pleasures. Fortunately, this is the internet and I won't have to face any of you in the morning.Wasting Time - I have been known to sit in Panera or Starbucks for two to three hours, nursing a latte and chit chatting with a friend or two. I always wonder if the employees get annoyed by that or if they really don't care since they aren't waiting on tables?
I'm a Real Housewife too - Speaking of time wasters, I'm a total addict of Bravo's Real Housewives series. Doesn't matter if they are from D.C. or the OC, I'll watch their antics. I find them more entertaining than any sitcom with a laugh track. And it proves that being rich and beautiful doesn't make you happy. It's like a life lesson!
Sniffing Candles - I know this is weird, but.........you don't want to go with me to a Yankee Candle store. I will insist on smelling every candle in the place. That's my aromatherapy.
Tanning - I don't go as far as tanning beds, but I do find immense pleasure in getting a tan. Yeah, I know, skin cancer, etc. Considering my area gets about 60 days of sun per year, I'm going to enjoy those rays when I can.
For all my Blogger friends who need a post idea, please feel free to grab the award and give us some revelations. No rules, just fun.
I DO have a tanning bed (blush), but hey, cut me some slack, it only ever rains here on Craggy Island.. where else can I grab me some sunshine?
ReplyDeleteI am so totally with you on real housewives.. it leaves me feeling all smug and superior!
I'm a sniffing time waster, too. You want to really feed that addiction? The Yankee Candle Store is right next door to the Starbucks at the mall I work at. Right there together!! The scents! The time wasted! You could absolutely OD there!
ReplyDeleteShrinky - You get the Housewives over there?? Awesome! And I feel for you with the weather.
ReplyDeleteFADKOG - Ok, don't you love coming home from Starbucks and your clothes still smell like coffee?
Ah alluz suspected you wuz a Candle-Sniffer. . .
ReplyDeleteCocotte....?
ReplyDeleteWhat if you stumbled upon a candle, say at a Big Lots, and the scent was..Dingle Berry!!
Would you give it a sniff?
Just askin.....
(Thanks for finally visiting me)
I never feel guilty about my pleasures
ReplyDeleteI always have to smell all the candles if I'm buying one unless I'm certain its a scent I don't like (almond, say, or vanilla). I always end up with a bit of a tan without trying - we get many, many days of sun.
ReplyDeleteCraig - Word.
ReplyDeleteG-Man - I know I've wished you a happy birthday in the past; doesn't that count as a visit? And to answer your question: yes.
JK - That's why bloggers love you!
Agent - Thanks for rubbing that in.
This is why I try not to go inside any candle, lotion, smell-this place. I have to smell everything.
ReplyDeleteGlad to know I'm not the only weirdo.
Queenie's a house-wifer too also. And a class-A sniffer, there's almost always a candle burning at home too.
ReplyDeleteMe? not so much .... but you knew that :)
Happy - Weirdos, unite!
ReplyDeleteX - For some reason, I didn't picture Queenie as a Real Housewifer fan. Sort of imagine her as more 'no nonsense' but maybe I am wrong.
Um, wow, I mean I don't say lots about Queenie anymore but if I ever gave that sort of impression of her well, um, well, uh, just no!! 'no-nonsense' would just not be her. At all. And that's all I have to say about that ...
ReplyDeletetoday.
Oh don't feel weird - I was caught in the act of my favorite olfactory obsession yesterday: sniffing hand soap. I always have to smell to see what scent the hand soap I've pumped into my hands in a public washroom is, otherwise I know I'll smell it later on, not know what it is, and look like an idiot asking everybody what smells like oranges only to discover it's my own pair of paws!
ReplyDeleteTatty - The same thing has happened to me with new deodorant.
