I'm sad to say that every Monday night I have a little ritual...a guilty pleasure if you will (and I know you will). I put the kids to bed and then I make a tub of popped corn and I crawl into my covers and watch The Bachelor! I love it, I seriously could watch this stupid show all day long. Why??? I consider myself to be intelligent and above this sort of nonsense... but clearly that's not true. This season is the single dad bachelor which in itself is so wrong..why is he flaunting his lips all over TV for his son to one day see??? Oh, well not my problem!! So it starts out with 25 crazy women and I say crazy because the majority of them are educated and beautiful but there is always a few cracked eggs mixed in just to make it fun. I love it when they are clearly stalkers, I love it when the write songs to the stranger...er bachelor and sing off key like they're in an Opera House. OOOh how much to love it when they get soooo wasted all they can do is vomit???? He always has a "connection" with the women and it's always "the most dramatic rose ceremony yet" My favorite is the end when the girls who are kicked to the curb are left crying and talking about their cats at home and how HE just made a big mistake!!! YOU'VE KNOWN HIM FOR 10 MIN. KNIT WIT!!! It's comedy, drama and a study in self-esteem all rolled up into one.
So he now has them narrowed down to 4 needy gals and went to their hometowns to meet the families. Here's the part I don't get...really. What kind of parents agree to this weirdness? They all meet him at the door with hugs and kisses like he's part of the family. UUUHHH, do they not know that their perfect daughter has been drinking wine by the gallon and tickeling his tonsils every time the camera turns her way...for 5wks at this point?????? Now, granted I don't have parents anymore, but if I did and was dumb enough to go on this show...I assure you this is not how it would go down! mmmmhhhmm..no way. I would be the girl last night...rightfully named Melissa whose parents opted not to be humiliated on national television. I hope he chooses her, with her dark tan and massively white teeth because clearly she's the most normal..someone in her immediate family said "ahh, I don't think so". Thank God!!!
Melissa did indeed get a rose last night which means she gets to stay to see how long it will be before she finds out the "connection" just wasn't strong enough! He sent the girl home that couldn't seem to move her lips over her teeth and her mother made him bury a dead dove 20 seconds after meeting him..this was probably a good call on his part.
Is it wrong of me to laugh at these pathetic women who are in competition for a man???? NO, because I'm married now and not out there tanning and bleaching my teeth and working out like a mad woman....wait those are all things I should be doing anyway...hold on...maybe this Bachelor show isn't such a bad idea! OOOO, I can't wait until next Monday night!!!!
