Guilty or Pleasure?

There are things about human beings I can't stand. I know, join the club, right? I can't stand cliques (but then I thought do we have cliques because everyone else does? Isn't it really just a circle- we stick with people who want someone to stick with?). I hate crowds. And mean girls. And frat boys. And when people interrupt when I'm talking. When people only talk about themselves. When people cut me off when I'm driving. People. Ugh. But it got me thinking, there are things about me that need working on, too. Everyone has vices. But, I thought, some vices are ok to have (like eating my weight in cookie dough when I'm upset). So, I'm going to call them "guilty pleasures." The only problem is.. what is the difference? What things do I need to do away with and which ones are ok to keep? Thus, this blog post. I'm listing the issues, and labeling them vices or guilty pleasures. Bam.

1. Eating my weight in cookie dough when I'm upset: Guilty Pleasure- as long as I'm not upset for two weeks straight.. which happens sometimes. Friends, take the dough out of my hands!!

2. Crying when I get overwhelmed: Vice- this is a chain reaction..I get stressed, then cry, and then run for the cookie dough. Fail.

3. Listening to country music when I'm feeling lonely: Guilty Pleasure- mostly, because I secretly don't want to give this up.. Also, Hunter Hayes' song "Wanted" makes me melt. That's all.

4. Eat something sweet after everything else I eat. Without fail. : Vice- I can hear the fat accumulating.

5. Isolating myself when people get on my nerves: Guilty Pleasure- people drive me crazy. Me time is totally deserved..right?

6. Not letting people in because...wait why? : Vice- I don't like "new" people and so I don't open up easily.. or even difficultly. Ha. I give a minimum two years before I trust. This needs to change. Or so I've heard. 

7. Watching Katy Perry music videos: Guilty Pleasure for sure- that's my lady!

8. Saying things I don't mean when I'm mad: Vice- bad, bad, bad..

9. Never telling anyone I'm upset..and then blowing up one day from the pressure: Vice- I know this isn't good.. but people can't handle the truth. 

10. Taking obnoxious pictures all the time of my friends: Guilty Pleasure- hey, I know it drives them crazy, but who else can I take pictures of? 

I just ate lunch.. and now I want something sweet. Maybe one last time won't hurt... ;)
