I Heart The Bachelorette



So at the end of every weekend, when most people are dreading a case of the Monday's I am secretly excited as Monday evenings have become more or less a very entertaining night for me. Why you ask? Well, you see, there is a chick named Ali who was looking for love from a pilot named Jake in the Spring of 2010. She ended her pursuit of Jake to go back to her career (something in Advertising blah blah blah), immediately regretted it and tried to woo him back and fly to St. Somewhere in the Caribbean to beg for his undying love and Jake would not have her back. He was too interested in Vienna, the Dub-T girl named after a mixed-minced-meat-sausage-thingy who I am convinced must have a VIP Shoppers Card at Forever 21 and Wet Seal. But enough of her.

So here we have poor Ali. Unlucky in Love for the ump-teenth-billion time of her life. She is absolutely, undeniably cute.



So in the MOST SHOCKING SEASON EVER she became this summer’s sought-after “Bachelorette”. And I am infatuated with this show almost as much as I am infatuated with Dog the Bounty Hunter. At 7pm each Monday evening my dear friend, we'll call him Tivo, and I bond for several hours of the newest commercial-free, absolutely fantastic, surely staged episode of this show. I love it. Each and every minute of it.

While the show is appealing to me I'd also like to point out a few of the things that are not-so-very-but-not-enough-to-make-me-not-watch appealing. Let's talk about a few of this season's lowlights according to me:

• The guy who introduced himself as Shooter in Episode 1 - dude, if you ever get a date again you must have found her under a rock!
• The wrestler named Rated R who is an all-around idiot
• Oh poor weatherman - you were entertaining while you were on but I do believe your career forecast is going to endure severe thunderstorms moving forward.
• Dear Canada - you stole the Gold medal from us in Olympic Hockey this year. Please steal your people on the show back too. And please keep them.
• Cape Cod Chris – while he is one of my favorites I do wonder who picks his shoes for him. Whoever it is should be fired.
• Kasey – whoever told you that you can sing clearly did not know the proper definition of talent.

To be honest I am not 100% sure what lures me to like this show. It makes me laugh, roll my eyes, say OMG out loud to myself and I’ll probably even cry at the final episode too. But I think all-in-all the real reason I love this show is it makes me appreciate my sweet husband even more to know my own personal Bachelorette journey is over.

And I’m proud to say he didn’t even have to wrestle half-naked men drenched in Olive Oil to land me.
