It’s been awhile since I’ve been to confession. So here goes…<\/p>\n

Confession:<\/strong><\/em> I am totally ashamed to admit this but I absolutely LOVE the new Robin Thicke song<\/a>.<\/p>\n

<\/object><\/p>\n

I know. How\u00a0embarrassing\u00a0is that?!?! Am I the only one that thinks of Alan Thicke whenever you hear the name Robin Thicke or one of his songs?<\/p>\n

\"Alan+Thicke\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The song is catchy and sexy–reminding me of Marvin Gaye<\/a> and Earth Wind and Fire and I find myself dancin’ a little bit whenever the song come on. {hangs head in shame} And doesn’t he look like George Michael in the above video?!?<\/p>\n

Confession:<\/strong> <\/em>I have a 14 year old girl crush on JT<\/a>. Like I’d probably be in the first row of his concert screaming like the other 14 year old girls if I didn’t want to keep SOME shred of my 33 year old dignity.<\/p>\n

Whenever he hosts SNL I get ridiculously excited and squeal like I just won the lottery. Fat Kitty’s eyes get super big and I’m sure he’s looking around for the mouse I must have seen… Michael gets sooo annoyed. But, I know his confession would be that he loves JT too. \ud83d\ude42 He’s FUNNY on Saturday Night Live! The skit he does about the Vegan Town is hi-larious.<\/p>\n

To all the other 14 year old girls with crushes, you’re welcome for those photos. MOVING ON…<\/p>\n

Confession:<\/strong> <\/em>I have sung karoake exactly ONE time in my life. I have zero singing talent, can’t carry a tune, have no sense of timing and hate being the center of attention. So karaoke has never once been something I aspired to do. One time I had a friend who was a drag queen (and awesome performer) who\u00a0serenaded\u00a0me at a club with Dancing Queen and managed to get me on stage but I surely did not sing with her! Anyway, so back to the one time I sang…<\/p>\n

I met my friends Jackie and Kathi at this total dive bar in Milwaukie (Oregon). It’s a steak house and definitely not the kind of place mid-20-somethings would ever go to but they wanted to sing and picked out the place. I drove from my place in SE Portland to what I thought was the boonies (at the time) and met them at this super dark, weird restaurant. It ended up being a cowboy bar. After several hours of drinking, eating fried foods and watching cowboys get up there and sing, they FINALLY convinced me to get up there. I agreed but ONLY if the two of them came up there with me. So the three of us got on stage and sang this song:<\/p>\n

<\/object><\/p>\n

It’s a girl my lord in a flatbed Ford slowin’ down to take a look at me! Yep, I sang my favorite Eagles song. You should have seen the evil glares from the half dozen patrons in the bar…the nerve of us…singing an Eagles song in a cowboy bar…<\/p>\n

It was just as awful as you imagine it to be. \u00a0\ud83d\ude42 But I did it.<\/p>\n

Confession:<\/strong> <\/em>I’ve started watching two shows new to me: Hung and Homeland. I’ve heard great things about both but so far I’m on the fence. I don’t feel like my life would be missing out on something if I stopped watching either show, but I’m hanging on to see if they get better. Especially with Homeland–so many people talk about how it’s the best show on TV (I have to disagree, Breaking Bad or Walking Dead are the best) that I feel like I’m missing something.<\/p>\n

Another couple shows that Michael and I tried but gave up on were The Americans and The Following. The Following had such potential. I love Kevin Bacon, I like those types of shows…but it got absolutely ridiculous and predictable and I was SO ANNOYED that everyone on the show turned out to be a secret member of the cult. Give me a break. Lazy writing if you ask me. So we gave up half way through.<\/p>\n

Since I’m confessing about TV shows, I just have to say this…<\/p>\n

Confession:<\/strong> <\/em>I love Modern Family and think it’s one of the funniest and smartest shows on TV right now. But I absolutely loathe Lilly. She ruins the show. She’s a horrible actor (yes I know she’s just a kid) and I feel like the writers are crowbar-ing her into the show to give her a bigger part than she needs to have. She seriously ruins the show for me. I can’t be the only one<\/a>…<\/p>\n

\"FitBloggin13\"<\/a><\/p>\n

C<\/strong>onfession<\/em>:<\/strong> <\/em>I’m pretty bummed that I’m not attending Fitbloggin <\/a>this year. I’ve wanted to go to a blogger conference for a few years now but the cost of the conference and a plane ticket discouraged me. This year it’s in Portland! Sounds perfect right? Except it seems to be sold as a package deal –including the hotel–which makes it just as expensive as it would be to go to one out of town! So disappointing. \ud83d\ude41 I really wish they had an option for people who don’t want to stay in a hotel. \ud83d\ude41 BUMMER!!!<\/p>\n

But on a positive note, if anyone wants to meet for coffee or something, or needs advice on must see and must do things in Portland, let me know! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
