Guilt Trip

by UnknownMami on September 30, 2009

No matter where I am, I always seem to be on the same trip.

    Guilt Valley is my fav place to hang!Who knows, we may have crossed paths there and not even known it! :)

    I've been lost in that neighborhood many times before.

    I used to ask my mom when she started in on me "Do I need to pack a bag? Will this be an over night stay or just a couple of hours?" And now I finally know where it was she was sending me too! I needed this map!!

    I don't know if there is a day that passes where I don't visit that area!

    Last time I was there, I walked up through Mission Guilt, and up to the antenna on the top of Guilt Peaks. The view across town was spectacular. Guilta Vista was a favourite!

    Lol. My Mother in law invented this country…

  • Steven Anthony

    I think I own land in that territory…

    I totally didn't realize we were neighbors! :)

    My mother is the mayor of Guilt Town – I try not to visit but you know how it is.Try to get out of there as fast as you can. Only take responsibility for what is truly yours then get out of the past and travel on over to today and tomorrow. That's the only place to live anyway.

    I tried to get a place in Guilt Heights, for the view. But the only thing I could afford was just South of Guilt. View there SUCKS.

    I have a condo in Inner Guilt. It's nicer than my house. I feel kinda bad about that.

    OMG! I love your slogan!!!I lived in Guilt Valley forever. I think I moved out this year, I think?xoxoxMs. Wanda

    I think I live in the next county of guilt over. My mil and mother are the landlords. Great post. Have a wonderful day and take care.

    I will sometimes commute between Guilt and Excuses. The latter makes me feel better about myself.

    Aww, what are you feeling guilty about, Sis? Have a margarita. You'll feel guilty about that too, but what the hell.Did you notice the guilt got worse after having a child? Ugh.

    As my mom always says…"parenting is spelled g-u-i-l-t"

    I was just thinking about this today. How I always, always feel guilty. Every. Single. Second. Work and family and everything…

    I am so glad to know that I live in such a populated place. At times, I feel like I am alone in Guiltville.:-)

  • http://www.blogger.com/profile/10084619026794128825 Stacy (the Random Cool Chick)

    Well at least it's well-populated… ;)

    Aaaaah, mothers. They are showing up in so many of the comments!I rarely feel guilty anymore — this despite the fact that MY mother has the biggest realty agency in Guilt City.

    Love the map, don't travel there often myself, too much still to see in Hecticville and Beating-Myself-Up county.:O)

  • http://www.blogger.com/profile/10836376588710862173 Joanna Jenkins

    Maybe I'll drop a few family members off in these neighborhoods and give myself a break :-) xo

    I love it! Well, not that you're feeling guilty but your way of representing it. Very creative! Hopefully you can let go of some of the guilt.

    Guilt Smilt! It is such a wasted emotion! The older I get the less guilty I feel. I do have to admit that Guilt Gate Park is so pretty this time of year though!
