Okay so we all know what "guilty little pleasures" are because we all have them, no need for me to go into some lengthy dissertation on the subject. Today I was presented with an award at work and I figured I would treat myself to one of mine, but sadly there were none to be found as I made my way through the day. The Thing I am curious about though is what exactly makes them so guilty?
In the case of yours truly, I know what make mine "guilty". For instance, I love Black Licorice Toffee and Pure Maple Sugar candy which any Dentist worth their salt will tell you will rot the teeth out of your head faster than Meth Amphetamines. When I find it, I will buy all that there is available and that my wallet can afford. My Maple sugar addiction is so acute that it is akin to heroin junkie status, so I partake of it only in small doses on rare occasions. I can make a single piece last 6 months if need be.
Another of my guilty pleasures is watching "Chick Flicks" and listening to songs by the band "Abba" (although I don't own any of their cd's). Being a fully functional and healthy hetrosexual male it is not hard to understand why this is not a subject I broach when hanging out with the guys. I also have one song in particular that never ceases to lift my spirits, and I will blast at full volume whenever I am alone, something were it witnessed would most definitely falsely set off the "Gaydar" of my male colleagues. It is a song that Gloria Gaynor might have made famous, but the band "Cake" made cool. You can watch the video of it below, but before you do, what are you guilty little pleasures? I am most curious.
Who am I? To make a long story short, I am just a guy, a simple "Joe Bag of Doughnuts" if you will. My Blog is simply a place to share my opinnions and anecdotes about the crazy people and
situations I have found myself involved in and with, told from the perspective of a normal guy living and loving life while in search of that elusive perfect cup of coffee and the woman holding it.
All the stories contained within are based on real life events and real life people, with just a splash of fiction to give it some zip, and perhaps make you laugh a little bit louder and longer. On
more than one occasion a piece may take a field trip to the gutter, and things will be said that will no doubt offend some sensibilities. So if you are the kind of person who goes looking for new
ways to be offended, chances are you've struck paydirt with me. If you get pissed off about what I have to say, well I hope you don't lose sleep over it because I know I won't.
