I am not a girly girl...so shopping, getting nails/hair done just doesn't do anything for me.

My guilty pleasure...MTV! HA! I love it! Jersey Shore, 16 and Pregnant, Made...I love them all! And the great thing about MTV is that you don't have to really watch it all the time, they repeat so much that you can keep up.

Reading romance novels! I know it's ridiculous, but at the same time, it's a cheap and easy way to escape mentally from the stress of the day.

America's Next Top Model, Gossip Girl! And I am NOT guilty. Sometimes we need something a little less intellectual to space out on, between motherhood, working, homes, significant others, doctors, school, homework, projects, soccer, etc, etc, etc. NO GUILT, watch with gusto!

I can't stand MTV. I grew up when it meant Music Television. Now it just has filth and I can't remember the last time I surfed by it and heard music.

My pleasure is Law and Order: SVU. It never fails that when I have a paper due for class, they are having a marathon on...lol. I end up going to bed at 1am after I finally finished the papers.

I love GOSSIP GIRL and 90210 and Melrose Place (I am 36 so was an original 90210 and Melrose fan, the new ones aren't as good - hahahah!) Jersey Shore is like passing a car crash, you don't want to look but have to. I have to watch when I see it more for the reason that I am a LOCAL here...and it just CRACKS ME UP to see these people all over the town that I grew up and still live in. (my friends and I are beach girls) but I'm all to familiar with the club scene from back in the day and those Jersey Shore cast members are to funny!
