Guilty!

Our latest Look Who's Blogging column in the Sun's Current section, which comes out on Thursdays, had us confessing our most guilty pleasure. Suzanne had a big ol' list including, but oh-so-not-limited to, Twizzlers, tequila and hot-off-the-grill burgers at G&O. Love all those! Patience talked about the calling of the Kirchhoff's cookie — the Cowboy (my fave), the Laura, the lemonade one, the Chess Bar. My take was a little different. I didn't understand the question. Pleasure, yes. I'm very familiar with that. My husband's beautiful blue eyes. A big, fat martini with three olives. The newest issue of Vanity Fair and a long plane ride. Watching the river barges. An amazing gospel choir. New shoes. Guilt? Hum. Lemme think. There's gotta be some guilt up around here somewhere. OK, got one! I'm definitely guilty of not handling every situation just right. But guilt and pleasure all together, all at once? As long as nobody's hurt or offended, I don't see how guilt has any business gettin' itself all tangled up in anybody's pleasure. Pleasure's pleasure. And I'm incredibly thankful for every bit of it. If you've got a guilty pleasure you're willing to share, unburden yourself via the comments button — and receive a free, guilt-free iList Paducah T-shirt! By the way, our question for this coming Thursday: "The song that defined my summer '08 is...?" Anyone have any ideas?
