My girl Allie (are you cool that I call you my girl, or is that a little weird and stalker-y and if I have to ask, do I already know the answer?) did a post awhile back about Confessions, and it appealed to my naughty nature, so much so I decided to join in on the fun. Granted, I’ve seen another ten confession posts since then, but I’m copying off Allie. And, since she just got back from Jamaica, I thought I’d share this twist on a Marley classic. Truth, I’ve been wanting to share this song for a while, but I had no real segue into it, so hopping off her Rastafarian trip seemed like the perfect intro, or at the least a semi-decent one. Go with it; it’s just easier.

- I don’t use protein powder, not even a little bit. In fact, I go out of my way to avoid it, although the Hubby occasionally indulges. I’d rather just eat an egg or a bowl of beans and be done with it. This confession might be worse than my non-love (and certainly not one love) of all things pumpkin, but it’s true. I don’t get the obsession.
- Whenever I take a nap in the middle of the day, I drool all over whatever I happen to be sleeping on. Why does this not happen in the middle of the night?
- During my massage yesterday, they greased me up like a pig in shit (nice visual huh?), and I didn’t shower afterwards. It’s so dry here in Ohio that I’d consider bathing in baby oil at this point. Desperate times call for desperate measures.
- I like cheese a little too much, but I suspect you already knew that.
- At my Super Bowl party, I ate some store-bought cookies brought by a friend. They had a zillion ingredients in them, and I couldn’t pronounce more than five of them, and yet I still liked them. Damn you artificial flavors and red dye 12, 13, 14, and 72. You evil bitches.
- I had a weird dream the other night where I was smoking cigarettes again. I woke up feeling like an addict and jonesing for a smoky treat. Don’t fret; I didn’t actually suck down a Marlboro (my brand of choice back in the day), but man those dreams are vivid and seem to come out of nowhere, even after all these years.
- I started watching Shahs of Sunset (Erin, this is all your fault) and now I can’t look away. It’s a total train wreck. What happened to Little House on the Prairie and simple, yet educational and moralistically upright shows? I have sunk so low.
- I threatened to send my kitten, little Oscar, to the glue factory after he did this because I kicked him out of our bedroom on Saturday at 6 a.m. Silly me, I wanted to sleep in. He’s such a little shit.
- It would appear my potty mouth is in full force today. That should make work interesting, especially since I stopped checking my office email at around noon yesterday and have over sixty messages to deal with now.
- My neck is one of my favorite features. It’s also what will betray my age in years to come.
Sigh…Back in the blonde days.
Now it’s your turn. What’s your favorite feature? What’s something you’ve been dying to confess? Or maybe just wanted to share? You don’t have to be so dramatic about it.
In my defense…I first saw that show at your house!! You got me hooked by simply flipping around on some leisurely Sunday. Also, I miss our “Cheese Sundays!” haha
I miss our cheese Sunday’s too. You bring a movie, and I’ll bring the cheese.
Love your patriotic look, Meghan!! I like the confession idea. I did a post called True Confessions recently, but it wasn’t like this. Don’t actually remember what it was about, only the title. It comes with age…
That picture was from the fourth of July; I was in the parade. It was such a good time. Plus, they gave me a crown. Or a tiara. Or really a cardboard headpiece. Whatever; a girl can dream.
Haha ohh my gosh I would have killed my cat if he did that. Not really though because he is my little love child. Still a shit though. My favorite feature is my collar bone area across my chest. Love it. As you know I have recently shared some confessions as well, but I will add one more here: I love eating beets because it turns my poo red.
If I chewed gum, I think I would have just choked on it. Best confession ever.
What the heck is protein powder and why would you need it? Isn’t there enough protein in the world?
This is why I love you.
Ha Ha Ha, I cannot stop laughing at your confessions. I swear we would be the best of friends if I lived in Ohio… but I don’t, so yeah that about sucks!!
p.s. I would have have killed roxy if she made a mess like that. I would do whatever I could to teach her how to clean the house from there on out.
Why don’t you get Joshua transferred to Ohio already?! it sure would make it easier for us.
Imagine if we could teach out pets to clean. It would be like the mice and birds in Cinderella. How amazing.
I would SO consider bathing in baby oil at this point. Chicago is just as bad. So. Dry. Also totally dont get the protein powder thing either..
I know, the air is so dry my skin is practically peeling. I can’t handle it anymore.
Sometimes I read your blog and I’m all, “Hey, we’re sort of the same person.” And then sometimes I read your blog and I’m all, “Holy shit there’s another nap-drooler/night-non-drooler out there.”
You can totally claim me as your girl for similar drooling habits alone.
At least I use protein powder, or I’d be worried that there’s a me-brain doppelganger on the loose.
Yes you are a protein powder girl (sorta like a power puff girl, and I mean that as a compliment), but I completely connect to so many of the things you write about. Like all of your confessions, and your Jamaican trip and nude beaches (and now it’s awkward).
Wait, what’s awkward about connecting on nude beaches?
…Oh.
Couldn’t help but laugh at the difference…I swear I throw protein powder in EVERYTHING! In my defense, I do try to use the most natural ones I can find with minimal ingredients. I don’t know if it’s a mental thing or not, but it just seems to keep me full for longer than say eggs or beans…hmm, maybe I’m just weird though…wait, I know I’m weird, but…eh, you get what I mean! 😉
I love my shoulders…actually, I never really thought much about them until recently. I posted a pic of myself on IG a few weeks ago and a couple of people mentioned that my shoulders look toned. Then I posted another pic the other day and got a few more comments about them…then I actually LOOKED at the picture…and I’ll be damned, I DO have a little muscle in there! Probably the only two in my body right now, but hey, I’ll take what I can get! Lol
Confession: I’ve recently become addicted to…grape tomatoes! I know…the horror!!! Hahaha! But seriously? I just went through a TWO POUND container in two days! o.O
Grape tomatoes are a pretty good addiction to have. You do use a crapton of protein powder (to each their own, right) and I always wonder what I could substitute it with, but I don’t want to be “that commenter” so I don’t ask, but I still want to know because your food always looks so amazing and drool worthy.
Your shoulders are fantastic; you rock those things girl.
Girl, you could NEVER be “that commenter”! Puh-lease! We be tight…aiiiiiight? <- Just a little gansta love for ya there! 😉
If you want to sub for the protein powder in the pancake recipes you could use 1/2-1 tablespoon of coconut flour OR you could add a bit more flour and decrease the liquid. But please, if you EVER have a question, ASK ME! I usually make each batch about 2-3 times to make sure it's good enough for the blog…and well, sometimes I get a little distracted and forget things…like when I made the last batch and totally FORGOT the protein powder! I was like, wtf…there's only 4 pancakes today, but there were 5 yesterday?! Haha!
Good to know about the protein powder. I feel a little sheepish for not asking sooner, but I didn’t realize we were gansta now. I’m good with thug love, so it works.
