This Girl Talk Thursday, we’re talking about our vices.

Carbs – If it’s possible to be clinically addicted to carbs, then I am.  Chris was talking to me about the Atkins diet and as he continued to list things that I should avoid eating — bread, pasta, cereal, fruit — I finally threw up my hands and exclaimed, “That’s not a life worth living!”  Seriously, no cereal or toast for breakfast?  No sandwiches for lunch?  Fruit for snacks?  No rice or pasta as part of dinner? Who the hell does that to themselves intentionally?!

Swearing – I can’t help it.  I really, really try to swear less, but I use the words “fuck” and “bitch” habitually.  I wish I didn’t, Chris wishes I didn’t, and god knows I don’t want Maia to learn these words from me, but sometimes, no other word works.

Messiness – Ever since that GTT where we shared roommate stories and I cleaned off my desk, I have been trying desperately to keep it clean.  I’m doing an alright job, although it’s definitely got a few extra things on it.  However, my bedroom?  Messssssy. Dirty clothes shoved into one corner, clean clothes in folded stacks sitting atop my dresser, an unmade bed with twisted blankets…

Coffee - Throughout my pregnancy, the smell and taste of coffee made me nauseous.  Before I got pregnant, I used to drink a pot of coffee every morning; now, I drink a few cups a day, usually one or two in the morning, sometimes one in the afternoon, and a decaf at night. This might explain why I need to get my teeth whitened.

The Internet – Blogs, Facebook, Twitter, four or five different forums, the entire I Can Haz Cheezburger network of sites… I can’t get away from it.  I love the ‘Net.  I think I’m addicted to the social aspects of it, the constant exchange of conversation.

Procrastination - You see, I’ve been thinking about this week’s GTT post since Monday.  It’s now noon on Thursday and I’m finally typing it up.  Every year, my New Year’s Resolution is “procrastinate less” and … well, the fact that it’s STILL my resolution and I haven’t moved on to something else yet probably tells you all you need to know about how successful that has been!
