Do you think he looks like them? I do! I have thought Jake and Hubby looked similar since Bachelorette Jillian. We watched Star Trek this weekend and I don't know what it is, something in the face is similar. Watching Bachelor last night and Ali said, "I look at him and think I would be so lucky to have him as my husband." I have always felt lucky to have Hubby as my husband. I know if he went on the Bachelorette or Bachelor all the desperates would be lining up. So of course snuggling into bed last night I told Hubby how lucky I am that he is my husband.
Ok, let's talk Bachelor. Did I miss him asking for Gia's hand in marriage? Because he asked for everyone else's. Someone's heart is going to get broken. Gia's mom and Ali's mom are so sure he is going to pick their daughter. Newsflash! Not going to pick both of them! I loved Jake on Bachelorette but I am not such a fan now. 31 never been married, cries pretty frequently, wear purple...worries me. To me he was saying the same stuff to all the girls and their families. I love your family especially your mom, blah, blah, blah. Ali, do you think we didn't see Bachelorette? We all saw when Ed did the same thing in the same room and yes he came back and they ended up together. But Jake was on that season! He saw it! Did you not? I have never asked my job for time off to be on a reality tv show but I'm guessing they let you take whatever time you already have or say sure go for a month or something. Do they really call you and say you have to decide its your job or the reality tv show? If it had happened several seasons ago I would call her bluff for sure but I don't think the producers think we are that dumb that we can't remember 1 season ago. I was team Ali and Tenley from day 1. Ali was losing me after all the Vienna drama. Now she left I'm team Tenley all the way! Her dance...to the wedding march? not good. But I don't really care who he chooses.
Star Trek was really good! Kind of confusing though. I never thought it would be funny. My dad is a total trekie so I knew some of the people's names and I can do the vulcan hand thing. Hubby enjoyed it to. He liked it way better than Mama Mia! So ladies, if you tortured your husband recently with Mama Mia, I recommend taking one for the team and renting Star Trek. There is a cute guy and it is interesting!
Edit: I made the trifecta mad! Oh no! Sorry, I met Hubby at 19 and was married at 25 he was 21 and we got married when he was 26. I think I know once person over 30 that has never been married, so I looked up the stats.
