Pic Of The Day - 07.01.14 - Tuesday Night Pleasure

My Tuesday night pleasure is watching The Real Housewives Of New York City.  And...my favorite housewife is Carole Radziwill.  If she lived in Houston, we'd be best buds!  I can't afford to live in NYC so she would have to move here.

Addictions

I know I have addictive behavior.  Shoes.  Clothes. Mardi Gras Beads.  Vodka.  Food.  Shopping at Nordstrom & Whole Foods Market.  It could also be that some of my behavior could be considered being stuck in a rut.  When all else fails for dinner ideas, I go to Whole Foods Market. 

So...once again, last night I went to Whole Foods Market on Waugh Drive and ended up just buying a slice of King Cake because I forgot I had some layered enchiladas (from Whole Foods Market) in the fridge at home.

Anyway...when I walked in I noticed that flowers seemed especially bright last night.  I'm sure it's the lighting and it's some retail trick to get people to buy flowers but anywho...these flowers really caught my eye last night.
And maybe it's just because it's that time of the year but they sort of look like they belong at a Mardi Gras party.

You know you're gonna have to face it, you're addicted to Facebook

So here's the funny thing, I found this article about Facebook addiction on Facebook.  I don't see Alcoholics Anonymous handing out flyers at the liquor stores.  Just sayin'.

And...if you're going to give the signs of addiction, shouldn't you put the cure into steps?  All good rehab programs make it simple for the addict to seek help.  Just sayin'.

I do admit that I have a quasi-addiction to Facebook.  I wake up and check to see what has happened overnight.  Sometimes I fall asleep at night while on Facebook.  And if I'm bored standing in line at Starbucks, I'm usually checking to see what is happening.

You must also know that part of my job is to be on Facebook for work.  I'm also on Twitter for work and for personal use.  However, my latest addiction is Instagram!  I could be the next Ansel Adams.

So yes, maybe I am a bit too connected but for all of the quirks of being too connected, I will say it really has helped me keep in touch with friends and family.  And get this...I still pick up the phone and call people AND I still go out and meet with people.  It's called Striking A Balance.
