Lost in transmission

On Saturday night, I sat on my couch and looked at the re-run of the new Bachelor reality show on ABC. I watch the show sporadically - depending on who the bachelor is and I had watched the entire seasons with Brad Womack and Matthew Grant. So I remember Deanna and I watched a bit of her turn as the Bachelorette and when she dumped Jason for the ski/snow board dude. Bad move, Deanna.

Anyway, Jason is hot and so I will be watching this season. Plus all my other shows seem to be jumping the shark so might as well. Desperate Housewives was so boring last night. My God!

In any event, they need to have a Trini Bachelor - with some lil rough neck Trini hood rats and some stuck-upWestmoorings bitches. I am always amused while watching shows like these, cause I always imagine how a Trini woman would handle certain situations. Like yesterday, there was a movie on Lifetime about a woman who found out her recently deceased husband had another wife. So she goes to Ireland and meets this woman who knew the nasty man had a wife and a child but married him anyway and bore him 2 more kids. And homewrecker wife is talking to the first wife with a kinda attitude I could not understand, dread. Talking to wifey like she is some kinda boss, and as if she had the pussy to end all pussies. I mean, I know it's tv and all but I find Wife #1 was real calm and accomodating with this homewrecking heifer, cause if that was me, I woulda done scramble that bitch by her hair and drop 2 kick in her ass.

But tv - I get lost in some of these shows. I am what you call an emotional watcher. I get vex with you, I laugh with you and I cry with you. The crying part is always embarassing - not too bad when you're home alone but when you're with other people and you're leaning your head back so that the first delinquent tear does not come down - yeah, a bit embarassing. Marley and Me - it keeps coming back to haunt me. lol.

So anyway, I always watch The Bachelor and feel sad and a bit envious - even though it is crap scripted pseudo-reality, but it's a show about falling in love and which girl does not want to fall in love? And when the love pickings in my crap unscripted reality seem really slim, and hopes for falling in love seem so distant, well...let's just say I live vicariously through some of these dumb hussies who have nothing better to do but go on tv and make assholes of themselves.
