The Bachelorette Recap: Week 1

I never really talk about how I watch The Bachelor and The Bachelorette, mainly because I used to be one of those people who judged the women who watched this crap. But for some reason (probably my blog and twitter friends), I decided to start watching a few seasons ago. Even though I realize it's stupid and unrealistic, I can't help but enjoy the mind numbing drama. :)

I've decided that I'm going to try to start blogging my thoughts as I watch the episodes each week.

This seasons Bachelorette is Desiree...

• The recap of her and Sean reminded me just how sad it was when she was saying goodbye to him. I liked that she said she just wants to make someone happy.
• What a lucky girl driving that adorable cute blue convertible!
• I don't think they've ever showed the Bachelorette out and about the town enjoying the area by themselves! How many outfit changes was that? 4?

.

• Watching the guys backgrounds always makes me do facepalms and shake my head.
• Woah...I was just asking Michael how long the sign spinners have been around and now this guy is saying he is the man behind it and it was started a couple years ago. *Twilight Zone Tune*
• Gotta love awkward introductions! I love when people do stupid things to stand out.

• OMG. Seriously, dude? You gave her a "fantasy suite key" as your "hello"? What a jerk!

• Abs guy...gag. Plus it looks like his creepy face was Photoshopped on someone else's body.
• The tie his shoe/proposal fake out was funny.
• Okay seriously? The guy with the little boy was too adorable!

• Hashtag guy is #annoying.
• Ben gets the first rose! Good choice, Des. (He's the one with the kid.)
• An impromptu soccer game in suites? Only on this show. Only to impress a girl!
• Drew seems cute.
• Again with the fantasy suite guy? So glad she gave him the boot.
• Why did she keep the creepy shirtless guy?

Overall thoughts? I like Desiree and so far I agree with the weirdos she sent home but I kind of wish she had sent more of them home that she obviously wasn't into. Then again, I always think this about the beginning. If I were the Bachelorette I would probably send home a ton of guys in the first two episodes and then really get to know the rest of them better. Why waste time on the losers? Haha! Hey, I got married at 20 for a reason. No games here! I knew what I wanted and went for it.
