Confession Of The Day

B

I stole this from another thread. 

Is there anything you feel rather ashamed of having done or not done etc?

Mine is:

I have started but not finished The Remains of the Day, Never Let Me Go and Klara and the Sun (Kazuo Ishiguro books).

and many other 'worthy' novels. 

Anguished

I do have greater sins I might share at a later date.

  • I've never read any so called "classic literature", I tried reading and watching adaptations on telly and have never got on with them, but I am a voracious reader.

    There's lots of things peope think I should be ashamed of, but I'm not, as long as I can look myself in eye in the mirror every morning then why should I feel shame about anything?

    Anyway the greatest sin is leaving chocolate to get so old, it goes off and has to be thrown away, something I've never been guilty of!

    I don't like BBQ's either, it's nice to find I'm not alone, I can't even stand the smell of them.

    I don’t like bbqs either, not my kind of food, too unstructured.

    Buffets are a mixed bag, it depends on how busy they are with other people. If it's busy I will just say I'm not hungry or wait. If it's quiet I can normally manage, especially if it means not interacting with others at a party or just looking after my kids getting them something.  

    The walk up to a buffet is the worst part, that is terribly anxiety inducing and might stop me going up at all. (Will I find the plates? / go the wrong way? / take the wrong thing?). My husband might get me something then, if he's noticed.

    I am not fussy and will try things, so not the same issues as Roy! But I do know the walk of shame from trying to find anything for the kids to eat (and sometimes having back up food in the bag for them is really handy!) I will try things, especially if no one else has eaten it and it's veggy. 

    Where as if it's a set meal, I will generally eat much more as it's on my plate already and wouldn't want to waste it!
