Six of My Guilty Pleasures – Total Social

This month’s topic for Total Social is Guilty Pleasures, so I decided to link up and play along.

Helene in Between
1. Cheeseburgers
OMG – why do cheeseburgers have to be SO bad for you, but taste so darn good? This was a really tasty burger I had the other day at Burger Dive, in Somerville, MA, at Assembly Row.

2. Fruity Beer
What goes perfect with a burger? Beer! The scale is never going to budge if I don’t stop drinking full calorie fruit beer. Blueberry, raspberry, watermelon….I love it all!

3. Shopping
As you know, I started up my own business and I am living off only a part-time marketing associate salary. I am not doing so well at saving for the wedding, a house some day, etc because I always end up shopping for clothes (who am I kidding – just my uniform of dresses), food subscription boxes, beauty products, and who knows what else. I just love new things; what can I say (insert sigh here).

4. Reality TV
Geez – I should really spend my free time doing something a bit more worthwhile then watching ladies cat-fight it up on Bravo channel, in one of the many Real Housewives shows I am addicted too but love oh so much!

5. Pop Music
Really I don’t know if there are any rules about who should listen to what, but is it lame I know all the words to teeny bopper / tween favorites like Miley Cyrus, Katie Perry, and Demi Lovato? Definitely a guilty pleasure of mine!

6. Gossip Mags
When the magazine rack at the gym or in the waiting room of an appointment has gossip magazines, I seriously get giddy! What did Kim Kardashian wear….who is John Meyer dating now….did Dean cheat on Tori again? …how did Kirstie Alley lose weight yet again? I love it all and NEED to know asap even if it is really all crappy and mostly made up! Ha.

    Where do I start?
    My guilty pleasures are so many that I’d have to plead guilty if I stood before a judge.

    On the food front, before I give you mine, I just think you should get your cholesterol checked. You eat a lot of cheese burgers and they’re not the healthiest thing on this planet.
    Me, I luv fried clams… but I can’t eat them everyday.

    Music for me would be heavy metal…Van Halen, motor head, Metallica, zeppelin, …
    And hair bands like Foreigner and Journey and Bon Jovi. .. a friend of mine went on a 80’s Hair Band cruise and luvvvved it!!!!!!

    I also like racy Web sites like extreme restraints, 3 wishes and kink.com…they can be fun and some even have deals on the Hitachi Wand which is truly a more than guilty pleasure.

    I also luv all those movies made by John Hughes like 16 candles, Ferris Buehler, Breakfast Club and Home Alone.

    Cheeseburgers are SO good. Why???

    I never buy the gossip mags, but I totally check them out when I’m in line at the grocery store. I can’t help it.

    I hate Kim Khardashian!!!
    She has a lot more bad things than cellulite… How about being stupid and slutty?

    She’s a disgrace to all of us normal and real girls..and her family is evil too!!!!!

    Make a sx tape, make a phony marriage to some basketball player and device him two minutes later and then marry a rapper at some palace in Europe.

    I’ll give u a guilty pleasure and dream.. To punch her ugly face!!!!!!!

    Ever have a banh mi sandwich? They are delicious Vietnamese sandwiches; you should try one. You can get them all over Chinatown and Dorchester.

    I read that your future father in law fired your fiance from the pizza business. Maybe he could open a banh mi sandwich shop near your apartment on Revere Beach. Anyway the sandwiches are my favorite in food..

    For drink, I like Vietnamese iced coffee. It’s strong coffee mixed with a spoon of sweetened condensed milk and then poured over ice…yummy and better r g an anything you can get at drunken donut. Those places are so overrated. ..

      Noooo he was not fired 🙂 They closed down the restaurant so his dad could retire !

      I have had the banh mi sandwich at the food truck https://www.bonmetruck.com/menu/ really tasty!

    I also see that a few of the other ladies enjoy pleasuring themselves with erotic toys… so do I

    And I got started by going to a sex toy party that one of my besties had.
    It was so much fun and now I do them too.

    Michelle, you ever go to one? You think you could have one and then write about it.

    You’d get a discount on your toys and a free vibratory that looks like a tube of lipstick so you can travel with it discretely
