Line dancing.

I know. I will hang up my boots in shame.... But it keeps me fit, I tell you it's good for me!

*Crawls back under my rock now*
Don't be ashamed! I've always wanted to try line dancing, but I'm not good at just picking up dances. I've never been to lessons or anything, which I'm sure would help... but when we go to the country bar and they all start line dancing, my friend just joins in and picks it up like that. I just walk away looking very confused. I much prefer two stepping, because its not a different dance for each song. And, if you have a good male lead, all you have to do is be lead. I like that!

I don't know what my guilty pleasures are. It's hard to think of guilty pleasures because it's hard to be pleased when I'm feeling guilty.

I suppose candy is a guilty pleasure of mine. I love gummy candies, like gummy bears or gummy worms. If I have them, I usually won't stop eating them until they are all gone. :lol:

Oh I use to love gummy worms (sour) to be exact, but I would eat the whole little pouch and I got really sick one time :shock: , so I've cut back on my gummies quite a bit...if my bro's or Bob and Budster have some then I will sneek a few from them :wink:

I love that film! Shelly Winters swimming, and Gene Hackman saving the day! What more could you ask for in a film?

I can't just pick it up either, I go to the instructed sessions at our local club. It's good fun, and she goes slowly enough for me to keep up!

hmmm my guilty pleasures. i watch one tree hill which is a pretty good show, i like to read chick lit especially when i need something light to read after being bogged down for the semester, i have an infatuation with office supplies. I have more pens, paper clips, post-its and what then i know what to do with. when i go to a store i have to completely avoid the office supply section because I am bound to buy something that I don't need.

I do the same thing. I love to go to Staples and Office Depot and just go crazy. When I was little I LOVED to go back to school shopping. No idea why I like it so much...

Now you're talking! Themes! I love it!

Speaking of Holidays, I get so excited when I have Christmas at my house! I go nuts with decor and planning the food.

I love to plan events! I did all my wedding planning by myself..I love it!
