Six Confessions
Recently Leigh-Ann & Kelly Ann posted their six confessions, and I couldn’t resist! I had to jump in, so here are mine (only I’m done five- one for each heart in my picture!)…
- After two years of never even seeing her leave the house, I recently made friends with the crazy cat lady who lives down my street. She has purple hair and feeds squirrels from her kitchen window… and she’s awesome! We have back lane chats and she’s really funny, and after the first time I met her I was so excited that I called Jesse- after two years of wondering who lived in the hoarders style house up the street it was like meeting a celebrity!
- I’m a nap monster. I love working super hard for 4 hours and then curling up into bed and drifting off to sleep for a while. I have my work/nap schedule every weekend, and it’s my favourite treat.
- Speaking of weekends, I’m a little weird about accidentally falling into routines that I like. My most recent lunch craze was having quesadillas every weekend from September… until December! I guess I just know what I like?
- I just caught on to streaming TV online, and I’m getting way too addicted. After years of rolling my eyes at the Kardashians? I watched the whole second season of Kourtney & Khloé Take Miami this weekend while catching up on my e-mail. I don’t know if I love them or hate them, but someone needs to pull me away from the computer!
- I haven’t spent an afternoon knitting since before Christmas, and I miss it! This Sunday I’m having a knitting marathon with beautiful crazy neon colourful yarn, and I can’t wait to post about the results.
Your turn! :)
ps – Since it’s Valentines Day & love is in the air, I’d love if you’d click on my new Google Friend Connect widget! It adds my blog to the “Blog’s I Follow” section of your blogger profile & shows your avatar on my blog- I would love to have you <3

I friend connected! Yay!
I love napping toooo. I definitely don’t allow myself to do it very often. Why not?? I am my own boss…I should! Sheesh! I should this weekend. Just for fun.
I take napping very seriously. Napping is one of my finest talents – an average nap for me takes about 2 hours, but, because of my novel napping skills, I’m always afraid to fall asleep during the day for fear I’ll sleep the whole day away.
I LOVE the kardashians!!! All their shows. Now I don’t have pay-tv I get some on Youtube when I can :) Makes me smile. I just love seeing their clothes and their hair and their fights and their love lives….. Kourtney is my fave by far. Go for it, watch it, don’t be shy. They sure do grow on you quickly.
xx
Naps are a definite must in my world, especially on the weekends. Such a fun post!
I too have been sucked into the Kardashian vortex….

agh! i mean ‘6 confessions’
trying to do too many things in blogland at once;)
Lauren, I posted five confessions in a post called six confessions. So my 6th confession? I didn’t realize I’d posted only five until about noon! lol I won’t judge you, I promise ;)
love the honesty of ‘8 confessions’. And streaming online… probably why I didn’t get closer to a 4.0 in university:) Oh well, I love me some pop culture.
Happy Valentines!
Here’s my confession: I am super excited about tomorrow because I have a nap “scheduled” after my afternoon class. :)
I love me some naps!
I was a nap monster in college. I’d snooze in between classes or for a few hours in the afternoon if I had only morning classes. I’m a big fan of them!
Confession: I wear cute undies all the time, even when nobody else is going to see them but me. I’ve developed an addiction to buying new ones from Victoria’s Secret every few months.
I definitely fall into food routines. I’ve been eating brown sugar and maple frosted mini-wheats from Trader Joes for what feels like months. It might be months. All I know is it’s a good cereal.
Happy Valentine’s Day to you as well. :)
2 confessions:
1) In the last few months, I’ve become insanely into professional wrestling. I used to be heavily into it as a kid but recently came back to it when my sister developed a crush on John Cena and I started watching it with her. It’s great fun but I find myself being a bit embarrassed by it. Though I’m always really happy to find another woman my age who I can talk to about the technique and the storylines AS WELL AS the hot guys.
2) I really want that Wonder Woman makeup line that MAC recently came out with. All of it. I don’t care that I never wear bronzer, gimme.
Happy Valentines!
naptime is the best in the whole world!!! ;)
happy valentine’s, kyla. <3
My life pretty much revolves around naps right now. It’s awesome.
i SO hear you on being a nap monster. if i could live my life by napping every 3-4 hours, and being awake for about 5-6 hours in between, i would.
my fun confessions include:
– i have a difficult time sharing with others. especially food. and especially baked goods or chocolate. and if i do share, it has to be ‘even steven’. (probably explains why i am so paranoid of being ripped off)
– i have a major addiction to the Gap. I have so many Gap clothes, that I actually have to plan what to wear if I will even be going *near* a Gap so that I don’t look like an employee, or like I am stealing any of the clothes they have for sale. (cause I WILL be pulled inside by it’s magnets of awesome-wait for it -ness)
-i have no problem eating dessert for breakfast, lunch, dinner and dessert. cause chocolate cake CAN have healthy ingredients in it… :)
I’m a world class napper, too. Nothing better than curling up for just a snooze.
Hi! I’ve been a quiet follower for a few months now, but I thought I’d join…Maybe I needed the invite. ;) Or maybe I”m just ridiculous. Anyways, my confession…I wish I had a huge aburn afro…this isn’t happening as my hair is blonde and stick straight.
i also watch the kardashians… I don’t know why but I just do. like I don’t have enought drama in my own life!!! lol this is really neat though Maybe I will write a confession. :)
I was skeptical of the Kardashians too, but now I love them. They are hilarious and have amazing hair!
Ooooh working really hard for a few hours and then climbing into bed to nap sounds positively LOVELY! I should really start doing that on the weekends rather than being so unfocused that it takes me a whole day to do 2-3 hours worth of work!
I want a crazy catlady neighbor!
Ohhh I luv the Kardashians too, Makes me want to have sisters :)
But in a bid to simplify we just dropped all our extra channels & land line..so I can’t watch anymore..how I do watch it online? Do you have a link?
I did my confessions over on L.A’s blog..such a fun idea!
I always develop weird weekend lunch habits (which generally spill over into weekday after work snack habits too)!
I would love to have scheduled naps. That sounds like bliss!
Try having Netflix! I’m a documentary dork, and they have so many interesting ones. I used to despise the Kardashians until my sister got me into it.. now I love them. Although Scott is a big goof.
I can’t wait to see the results of your knitting! :D
As someone who ate the same soup for lunch everyday starting in November until just last week, I think it’s safe to say I also love routine. I also love naps!
My confession: I’m slightly pouty today about the fact that it’s going to rain all week, despite enjoying 70+ degree temps for the past week. I’m a total California girl, what can I say?
nap monster…what a perfect way of putting it…i should have thought of that!
Confession: I have been reading devotedly and commenting not at all! Sad and sorry.
Happy Valentine’s Day, pretty lady!
Ooooh! Knitting with neon colored yarns sounds so fun. I can’t wait to see what you create! And, oooh naps. Mmmm. My favorite. It’s funny, I went on a sort of half day work schedule so now I have to be at work super early, but I’m off every day by noon. So there’s much more time to squeeze a nap in! I’ve fallen in love with the art of daytime sleeping. Haha. I can’t get too carried away though because I still have so much to do! Love this post, I may just have to do one myself. ;)
Well since it is Valentine’s Day I have sort of an embarrassing one pertaining to love… I can no longer sleep well without Knight next to me. That’s both good and bad if you ask me =)
My other confessions for today…
I have a bag of tootsie rolls in my car, as they are my newest favorite obsession.
I’m in love with 30 Rock Season 4 (thank you streaming Netflix)
I have worn my hair up in a ponytail probably 10 out of the last 17 days…
LALALALALALALA I can’t hear you! Don’t get me addicted to a new show! Dude Hulu is ADDICTING! We don’t even have cable (satalite in rural area we live) just HuluPlus and NetFlix on our Wii :) I’m slightly obsessed with American Pickers and Cake Boss (he’s got a reg cooking show on TLC now, weird) and Pawn Stars lol. DH hooked a computer up to our TV like a giant monitor lol.
I love naps too! I’ve never been able to understand people that don’t nap. It’s the best way to relax on a weekend!
That’s so sweet that you made friends with your “crazy cat lady” neighbor. Probably made her day too!
definitely make time for some knitting :) It’s my favorite passtime and I firmly believe it’s like meditation or therapy .. just plain good for the soul! :)
Ohhh the Kardashians are TOTALLY my guilty pleasure too!
I was/am obsessed with anything Kardashian. Like you, my feelings are unclear but I can’t look away! How much do you dislike Kourtney’s boyfriend, Scott? I keep telling her to dump him, but I don’t think she can hear me through the TV screen. ;)
