What are your "guilty pleasures".....
I have to confess....

I LOVE the song "Magic" by Olivia Newton-John....

There, I said it. Anyone else feel like sharing? We'll make it through this together...

1. Good question! My answer...
Nice to be away from GDF for awhile and chill....


I can watch The Andy Griffith Show and I Love Lucy all day long. Barney can always make me laugh.

4. Buying more shoes and coats than I can..
possibly have an opportunity to wear. Not to mention the new suede skirts and pants I have accrued. Bad Kahuna! Bad! Ah, but what a woman won't do to hold on to some remnants of her youth. :crazy:

7. I "throw away" about ten bucks a week
on the Lotto. At this point I'd almost have to win the big one to break even.

Just think of it as "a voluntary tax." It makes you feel better.

23. the Coney Island
As in a hot dog with chili and onions was invented in Detroit. They picked the name Coney Island because it sounded exotic.

11. Trashy novels...
not just romance novels either (though I have been known to indulge in those). I'm talking books with a rose and bullet on the cover. Anything about our intrepid hero and heroine fighting the Nazis, or the "commies", or a plot to blow up the world, and falling in love. :-)

17. Yeah!!!! I'm not the only one
I love romance novels. As far as anyone knows, I read award winning novels with "deep, and meaningful" messages. Pulitzer prize, Booker prize...all those books fill my bookshelves but the ones I love and get excited about, pun not intended (:.. maybe.. are my novels filled with gorgeous protagonists searching for love.
Life's hard enough , I figure a little fluff is good

33. hooked on fluff
It's my most guilty pleasure. The gift shop at the hosptial I work with sells used paperbacks for 75 cents and some of them are pretty hot. I exchange books with one of my friends so I know if its worth reading the whole book for the trashy scenes.

32. If you must know....
.... I really enjoy John Hughes movies. The mid-80's teen angst ones. Especially if Molly Ringwald is in it.

Hubba hubba.

Did I mention I am now in my early forties?
