Bachelorette Thoughts

So, I have not blogged about Jillian's Bachelorette season yet. Which, if you read my blog, is abnormal for me. But, alas, there is so much going on in our lives. But that is a whole other post. 

To see something funny, go to my Facebook and see Sadie chose the color of our grout. It is pretty funny. I would post it here, but it is on Ryan's computer at home. 

Okay, now to the Bachelorette. Hmmm. Here are my current thoughts. 

1. One thing I have noticed about this season is there are a lot of "dark horses". I think that there is only supposed to be one "dark horse" in a competition, but I think in Jillian's case, there is more than one. I think both Reid and Jesse are her dark horses. What a weird sentence. I like both of them! Reid reminds me of Chandler Bing, and there was one moment last night where he was joking with Jillian about having two wives, and it reminded me of Ryan and myself. So I think I like him because he reminds me of my husband. Nothing wrong with that, right? I also like Jesse cause he seems to be genuine, like Reid. 

2. When the show first started, I liked Kipton and Jake. I still like them. They are both good looking, and seem sweet. But for some odd reason, I am just secretly wanting a relationship (besides Trista and Ryan's) from this reality show to work out. Because otherwise, I feel like a loser for wasting my time watching it and ahem, blogging about it. All that to say, I think Jillian and her man have a better shot of making it if she chooses Reid or Jesse as opposed to Kipton or Jake. Reid and Jesse have both seemed like easy-going, down-to-earth guys who really, really like her. Chose one of them, Jillian. For the love, please make a relationship work for this franchise! (I really doubt this will happen, but a girl can dream....)

3. Wes is slimy! He keeps playing that same song and talking about his CD and I think he is bad news. I don't like him, and if you watch the show, they make it seem like Jillian is the only person who can't see through him. Ugh. Go away, Wes. I will NOT buy your CD. 

4. Ed left for work. Okay, so he had to go because his boss gave him an ultimatum. He said he could stay there and "find love", or he could keep his job. I bet that boss got a hard time at work this morning. The women in the office are probably glaring at him behind their coffee cups and talking about him when he uses the water cooler. Jillian was SO upset about Ed. Overly upset, it seemed. To me, logically, he should have left (as he did), because he didn't know how long Jillian would keep him around, and when she dumps him later, he would have no career to go back to. But honestly, to my girly-nature, I see how Jillian would see this as "Ed would always chose work over me." And, if you are going to start a family with someone, they need to have their priorities in line. But it is a little different, because it is a reality show, and if I told my boss I was leaving to go "find love" for 6 weeks (if I wasn't married to the love of my life, obviously), I would get SOO made fun of. If not from my boss, the other ministers would have a field day. I would never hear the end of it. Wow, this is a long paragraph. Let's move on. 

That's all for now. Hopefully you are still awake. 

Much love, 
Allison

  1. I completely agree with you! If Monday's weren't so busy for me and I could actually make it home before it was time to turn on the TV and sit to watch, I'd say we should watch together! But alas, this is becoming a blog in and of itself! I completely agree with you about Ed. He was one of my favorites and I was sad to see him leave - in the moment it would be disappointing to leave that experience, but it is way different to say "I choose work over you, person I love and know I want to marry" than it is to choose work on a COMPLETE love-gamble. 'nuff said.

  2. Oh we should TOTALLY watch it together! If you could come over, Ryan and Michael could entertain themselves in the movie room...or something. I am glad we see eye to eye. Next time I see you (Sunday lunch, maybe?) we should discuss. :) Have a great Thursday!
