I blather on this blog about the ways that I save money, but there are also a lot of ways that I am *not* frugal. I don't feel badly about these, either, as I figure that if I ever need to cut out more expenses I will be able to do so. Hee! Let's hope these things don't get me shunned from the frugal community.
1) I have expensive phone/DSL service and love it.
2) When I am at home, I keep the temperature between 70 and 75 degrees and I am *still* cold. I also sleep with an electric blanket at night.
3) I will drop hundreds of dollars to go on trips or to conferences that I think look interesting, provided that I have the money to do so.
4) My cat eats expensive food and does not use the cheapest litter.
5) I drink organic milk only.
6) I am currently undergoing an expensive "medical spa" procedure (NOT plastic surgery of any sort, thankyouverymuch).
7) I get my hair cut every five weeks ($25 a pop) and there is no way on God's green Earth that I would EVER consider letting any friend/boyfriend/husband/child/grandchild/dog cut it for me. No. Way. I did cut it once myself to great success, but the last time I attempted it...disaster. And this is part of the reason why my hair is short today.
So, now you know the ugly truth. In what ways are YOU not frugal??

Hmm, I do #1 (plus we pay for dtv/tivo), #2, #3, #5 (about half of the time), #7 not every month but twice a year I get expensive highlights and about four times a year pay $18 + tip for a decent hair cut.
I also am a sucker for Clinique and Lancome when the bonus time rolls around.
