Life's guilty pleasures?
Most of us have a few guilty pleasures.
Name some of yours.

I have to admit I do rather enjoy one of these each night...
My guilty pleasure has been pot or as they call it in Wales mwg drwg, pronounced moog droog, since I was about 14 and I was never really free of it. Quite literally a guilty pleasure because it's illegal. Problem was I was effectively disabled. Super anxious all the time, and a shocking shocking short term memory. I could often not remember what I was thinking about half way through thinking about it.
I quit last month and to say life is different would be the biggest understatement ever. I can think, I can remember, I can articulate. My anxiety is almost non existent. I'm finding pleasure in the simplest things like talking to the bat **** crazy Irish lady who lives round the corner. I used to avoid her before.
That said, I'm a bit ott atm and maybe need to reign it in a little. It should come with time.
Don't do drugs kids.
I actually noticed a difference in your style & tone of posting in the last few weeks. Might be coincidence, but I really sensed it.
I am hugely anti-drugs, but having said that, there but for the grace of God & all that it would be me. The main reason I've never touched them is that I know once I started I knew I would never be able to stop. So I got lucky really.
I did do cigarettes most of my life, that's a drug too, the difference being cigarettes - which kill us - are legal. Go figure.
I have read just about every rockstar biography, including the big smackheads such as Anthony Keidis, Keith Richard, Steven Tyler, Duff McKagen, plus I'm Joe Walsh's biggest fan, and it's weird, I loathed that they all took drugs to such excess, but I ended up admiring them hugely when they eventually managed to get clean. Seems dead easy to get hooked, but incredibly hard to get off.
Warning - it's an hour & a half long, but a truly fabulous story & well worth a watch. Sorry about the sub-titles, but the video is all in spoken English.
I'm still hooked on the nicotine, but via vaping, which I think I can live with for now. One thing at a time.
I'll watch that documentary tonight. It'll be therapeutic, no doubt.
Please watch it - I'm quite sure you'll love it. The first 10 minutes is a bit flat, but once it gets going it's some story.
Don't really have a guilty pleasure, as it's been everything to excess of late. Maybe revisit this after a few months of the health kick and see what little cheats have crept in.
Not about the one @kapowblamz is referring to btw, it's got more benefits than others of course and I personally use a variation of it myself.
Ahh, NOW we are getting there. Jaffa Cakes, Ambrosia Rice & Maple Syrup. Hardcore stuff now. Bring it on.
