Blog Reading for Voyeurs

I’ll admit it—I’m a voyeur. Not the stand in your bushes, peer in your window type, but the naturally curious type. I position myself awkwardly in coffee-shop couches to “overhear” and interesting conversation. I read Oprah’s Book Club books over strangers’ shoulders on the subway. I even look in shopper’s carts at the supermarket and evaluate them based on their picks (my cart usually says “I will not apologize for my chocolate addiction and my consuming preoccupation with my cats.”)

My voyeuristic tendencies spill over into my online life as well, as evidenced by the blog reading I have bookmarked. Take a peek at some of my favorite strangers—borderline internet-stalking is more fun when shared!

College Call Girl

If you’ve ever had one of those weeks where you’re late on the bills and are contemplating selling your body so that you can pay off your magazine subscriptions, this one is for you. College Call Girl is a sassy hooker, and that’s just how I like it. The unapologetic and extremely candid writing will have you obsessively refreshing your browser, begging for more. If you’re the type to scream “T-M-I!” at your best friend when she details her latest hookup, stick to something more PG-13.

Bobby Burgess

Bobby is like that wacky friend you have who’s always off living in a different country for a few months, alerting you as to his whereabouts with a postcard once in a while or with a knock on the door when he’s looking for a place to crash. He’ll remind you of that guy who always makes arbitrary, random comments under his breath. You try to hate him, but really you just want to have his babies.

Boarding Pass

If, on the daily drive to work, you’ve ever contemplated just missing your exit, driving to the airport, and hopping on the next plane to a country who’s name you can’t even pronounce, this is travel-writing blog will be the kick in the ass that makes you do it.
