We made it. Although this morning's snowfall makes it seem as Spring is still far away. At least we hit it on the calendar.
I have been a terrible blogger lately. I've been incredibly exhausted from various things and I find turning on the computer during my off-time quite frankly, depresses me. I don't know if it is all of the bad news, or just the fact that I sit long enough in front of a computer 5 days a week. But the moment I sign on, I feel any energy I have left completely drain out of me! But here I am...
I know I didn't post my annual review of The Bachelor. The only reality show I watch for the past 5 years. For some reason during my totally-single days I got very into this show - Mainly to see the awesome locations they would go to on super-romantic dates. I always thought it was insane how girls would claim to so quickly fall in love with these guys. I mean, they are taken on the most romantic dates in the most beautiful locations on the planet. How couldn't you fall for it all?
But then, as this latest Bachelor couple said. There is reality. Coming back to real life and trying to make a relationship work, like the rest of us. It is, let's face it...hard.
I had trouble watching this past season. The girls seemed catty and well, strange.
The one he chose seemed to be sweet, but something was a little off. I really think the best part about watching it was N.'s imitation of Brad's annoying slooow Texan drawl. (Points for Brad though, I did read in a magazine that he himself thinks he has the most annoying accent).
I thought Jake was blah in the last season. But Brad surpassed the blahness. Same with the girls he chose. The whole season really was one big snoozefest.
But I continued to watch til the end. Knowing this is the one time I can rip into characters on TV, since for some reason, this show brings out the absolute worst in me.
They both admitted to being incredibly stubborn. Sometimes, like in my own relationship, I wonder how two such stubborn personalities can work into a happily-ever-after life together. But I guess that's the thing I was talking about before - relationships take a lot of work.
I have a feeling they won't last. But what do I know. And either way, I wish these two dull love-birds the best.

"dull love birds" that's hysterical.
Hi TCG, I'm glad that you're well nevertheless. It's Spring up here too. Crocuses are still coming up. Daffodils look stunning and the buds on just about everything else are coming along nicely. It's been wet and cold so Spring has been late.
i love this show A. i love it and i really enjoyed this season and hope they can work through their issues. i try not to get too into it because i know it's just a show but this year was really refreshing because it did cover the real life realities of relationships.
