Guilty Secrets
The morning news was full of guilty secrets. It's that time of year--election season--where all secrets are outted.
Sometimes I think it's hilarious because hypocrite are reveals. Many times I find it revolted because people's privacy is invaded.
This morning I was amused, but I won't dwell on that. Why gossip about others when we can gossip about ourselves? I have a guilty secret. I just realized it as I was talking to an author friend about mean reviews on Amazon. We all know better than to go read our reviews there.
But I'm guilty. Yep, I am a Closet Amazon Checker. I'll check my numbers and look for reviews way too often. All the while telling other authors not to do it.
Sheesh, I'm a hypocrit :-)
What about you all? Any guilty secrets?

hmmm, a guilty secret? Not I :)
Cele I always knew you were perfect!
Considering dh won't see this...okay so we always buy waaayy too much candy for Halloween. And I always whine waaaay too much about the horrible temptation of that leftover candy being around the house.
So dh says to me on Halloween night (after which we had only 2 trick-or-treaters) that I should take a good look because it will be gone by morning.
Huh?
Sure nuff. Morning comes and the really-cool-black-cauldron-that-I-won-at-a-recent-raffle is now empty. Dh has hidden said candy.
That night, he walks out of the garage door to the kitchen with the stashed bag of candy.
I lasted only two days before I was out there in the garage hunting down that damn candy!! I was about to throw in the towel, telling myself what a ridiculously childish thing it was of me to be sleuthing for Snickers!!!
I had convinced myself to leave the premises and I was doing just that when, I turn around and, on its own volition, my hand reaches over and lifts the lid off of a 5 gallon storage bucket. BINGO!
But I was a good girl--I only took three Snickers...that time. And I've only been back once since then.ggg
They say confession is good for the soul. Now that I've confessed, shouldn't I do penance or something?
ha haha perfect? no, I just have a big mouth, so they aren't secrets. I can keep others secrets...well except from my husband, but I can't keep my own secrets.
Gillian, I'm with you. When you're sitting in the living room and it is screaming your name to loud to be ignored.
well, girl, you just have to answer the call.
