Reality TV

I know it sounds pathetic but I love reality TV. I love coming home and watching something completely mindless. I spend my whole day talking about violence so I like to come home and have nothing to do with it.
I tried to start watching the news, but all they ever talk about is people being killed and more violence. So I gave up on that. I tried to start watching drama shows, but the majority of them are about being killed and violence so I also gave up on that. And I realized reality TV is my favorite

While I know some reality TV has violence- it's the funny kind. You know women screaming at each other, people getting drunk and doing stupid stuff, fighting over a man, etc.

Some of my favorites:

Real Housewives. I don't care which city they are from, I love them all. I love watching how they treat money like it is no object, I love how they fight all the time and I love how they are such bitches.

The Bachelor. I began watching The Bachelor with the first season. I remember Alex, the first, and I remember that the girl he picked is from Chanute, KS. Now, if you know anything about Chanute that should say enough about this girl. I forgot watching it while I lived at Alpha Chi, mainly b/c it was hard to fight over the TV. But rest assured I began watching it again as soon as I moved out of there. It is on every Monday, and I have to bribe my husband to let me watch it. He sits there and complains the whole time but I don't care I love it. And yes, I know that most of the relationships won't work out but I still love the idea of it.

Top Chef. I LOVE COOKING. Every night when I get home from work my favorite thing to do is cook. I kick Paul out of the kitchen and I cook. Sometimes it is something simple, but shows like Top Chef inspire me to do more. Of course my husband doesn't complain. Last night Paul told me that when he was little his dad told him "find a girl that can cook". And Paul is lucky that he did. I think he knows how lucky he is. :-)

What I know today is that no matter how difficult your day may be, TV can truly turn your day around and make you forget all the negative things that happen. While some of the reality tv has violence- it is not as violent as the stuff I hear about all day long. Sometimes I just need a break from all of that and let my mind be filled with pure Crap.
