I am currently experiencing a particular bad bout of insomnia, having laid in bed for hours getting more and more frustrated at the lack of dreamscape. There's so much running through my head but I'm not actually awake enough to do anything productive, so you get some memes instead. I was tagged for these by
avariael back in January of this year.

The Rules: The first player of this game starts with the topic of "5 Guilty Pleasures" and people who get tagged need to write an LJ entry about 5 Guilty Pleasures as well as state this rule clearly. In the end you need to choose 5 people to be tagged and list their names.
1. Googling the names of people I used to know a long time ago, sometimes for hours.
2. Watching -- and enjoying -- bad television movies. Especially if they star Alyssa Milano, Tori Spelling, or Shannen Doherty.
3. Trying to step on pigeons on the sidewalk. I really fucking hate the nasty disease-ridden flying vermin.
4. Taking showers that last between an hour and a half and two hours.
5. Being addicted to music video channels.
