Three years ago, I broke my addiction to “The Bachelor/Bacholerette” series. I was, before that, a weekly viewer who cleared my calendar so that nothing would interview with my show. I loved those shows and enjoyed watching them with friends, enjoying a social event where we would sit on our psychologist’s couches, analyzing each contestant and making predictions about romantic matches. But, I got clean three years ago.
The problem is, this week, a friend of ours (one wonders what sort of a friend would do this to us) told Devin about the delight of watching TV online; we don’t have a TV in our home and sometimes wish for something to watch on Friday night. So, Devin convinced me to watch an episode of “The Bacholerette”. I struggled, really I did, and made various protestations about the cheesiness of Chris, the host, and the danger of objectifying the show’s participants and the immoral behavior displayed at times on the show. But, it was to no avail. Because, we watched another show last night, and now I find myself thinking about next week’s show and suddenly I feel myself sinking back into my old bondage.
So, I confess that I am probably going to become a Bachelor/Bachelorette fan again. I will close my eyes at the smutty parts and shake my head in disgust but continue watching religiously.
With that said, what do you think will happen with Wes? Hee hee.
hey, at least there isn’t a barrage of commercials and you can fast forward the smutty parts. :O)
I just love you, Katie.
