.sucker.

okay, so i don't watch reality tv for the most part, because i'm usually using tv to escape reality. i'm also a bit behind the times and end up watching old reruns of csi las vegas, ny and miami, so i can't contribute to conversations about Lost, Heroes, 24 or The Office. BUT. as i channel surfed during a commerical, i came across the finale for the bachelor. i watched a little bit to get the gist of what was going on, and then switched back again when jason mesnick had turned down molly, and molly's monologue in the car. okay, so at this point, i felt for the girl, and she didn't get all crazy on camera. they pan to jason, and poor thing, he actually feels really bad about what he did to molly. aww cute, tears...then the sobbing. o_O. really? that's...not needed. maybe if his child, or parent or sick cancer ridden dog died, but really? so then melissa comes out, and he finally reveals to her that he's fallen SO in love with her, and that's when i changed it, thinking, okay, yay. LITTLE DID I KNOW! so yesterday, our class had a pizza party (it sounds like we're in 4th grade but i have little energy to explain) and i hear some of my classmates talking about it. well i thought i could put my two cents in when my girl broke it down to me. shocker! it was a lot of me with my jaw dropped with a couple of "no way"s and "shut the front door"s. which got me thinking today,
Jason Mesnick, thank you so very much for perpetuating the fear in a single woman's heart that something IS too good to be true, and that a guy apparently has a 30 day return policy on engagements. thank you so much for parading your son as a litmus for your love life, and i hope you are saving up enough money to send him to therapy one day. or maybe, the two of you could start a running tally of how many psyches you will continue to break down. that would be some great quality bonding with your son who doesn't know WHO to call mommy anymore. you are a true inspiration for all men who were teetering on that line of whether they should commit or not. you grounded them real well, and i'm sure they will feel so much better just staying on that line. that's great. after all, you did show them that they don't ever have to really face any consequences in love, just do what you want to do without concern about how it affects other people. you should be an inspirational speaker. today i do wish you and molly well, but who knows, i may change my mind about that tomorrow.
