Guilty Pleasures!

I love Veggie Tales! I'm so glad my son,10, will still watch them with me.

Picking more fruit than I need all summer long. Then making stuff and giving it away before the husband notices. I make stuff for us too, especially jams and pies but Gary is not a fruit eater so he gets annoyed. Hence why I make things to give away also.

Heehee..the "online friends" dealie. I struggle with this one, too, but not nearly as much as I used too. I can completely relate to the feelings shared by 3894, Ponine & LSPE. When I talk to my boyfriend or any of my "real life peeps" (i.e. people I see on an almost daily or weekly basis) I will refer to anybody that posts on the LoT by their real first name (if I know it) and will, for example, say "Oh, my friend (insert name) told me about you know, this or that".

Why I feel funny saying that is that I probably annoy most people here and I'm calling them "friend" when, you know, they think I'm the suckiest thing to ever suck. Hee hee!

Plus, my boyfriend has never belonged to a message board. However, he knows that I enjoy posting on one. It took me awhile before I admitted that I was hooked!

Can somebody be our friend if we don't know their first name or have never met them in person? I never would have thought so until I joined a message board, but, you know, pen pals existed long before the online dealie. The internet has become the tool I never dreamt it would become in my life. To be honest, I've met so many incredible people that I would be empty and lost without thanks to online communities (I know I sound shmaltzy, but it's true!)

I used to be the person who was TERRIFIED of online communities. Coming from an all Law Enforcement family, I've been trained non-stop, even as an adult, to not trust just about anybody. I needed to have my arm twisted to put up a myspace page! It took me a long time to join the Pad. Forget Messenger- I just suck at using that thing. These days, I'm not online nearly as often as I used to be, but I still need that dose of LoT to keep me all happy & balanced.

Even if you all think my screenname should be changed to "The Suckiest Thing That Ever Sucked".

You know, that is not necessarily a pejorative moniker! Could be high praise...

Heehee! You know, that might be right up this Ally's ally!

RStar~ Trust me, it's better that you don't know what I'm into these days. That's a whole other guilty Thread...
(I kid, of course. I think. Maybe. Okay, a little. A lot. Let's not go there)!

My boyfriend surpised me at my office today with one of my gultiest pleasures, Pinkberry!! An original topped with fresh strawberries, blueberries & fruity Pebbles! I haven't felt well, so I'm just now havin' a bite! I'm diggin' in as soon as I log off after this post, lock up my office and head out!

One more guilty pleasure before I say farewell for now...

*My Boys
