So many of you either emailed me directly or left notes here on the blog in the past day asking what my opinion was of THE BACHELOR season finale' with Jason. Of course I had peeked at the "say it ain't so" ending already but had high hopes that it was all just a sick joke. Unfortunately, it wasn't.
Do I believe that abc didn't know that Jason was going to do this? No. I think they planned it for him in order to promote ratings just like we've all heard. Do I believe that Jason and Molly weren't seeing or talking to each other when he was still with Melissa? No way! I think they had been in contact the entire time. Her giggles and smirks on the first 'after the final rose' segment confirmed all that. Their body language, their smiles, and his one slip up at the very end when he said something to the effect that "We are just hoping everyone will realize we are doing what is best for us." That word WE made it sound as though they had talked about this and they were in it together. I believe they were.
Here is my two cents if you want the brutal truth. I think Jason is a train wreck. I think Molly is an even bigger train wreck because she took the guy back after he dumped her on national television and even told her that he thought she was wrong when she said that he and Melissa wouldn't work out. I feel sorry for Jason's son. What a mess he will be part of someday. What a mess he is part of now actually. I feel sorry for Jason's ex-wife. I, like my friend Melissa mentioned on Facebook, think that they should pull his ex-wife on TV & make for some R-E-A-L reality TV material. I'm sure that there are two very big stories to their marriage and the demise of it. We only heard his one side to it all. How convenient! I'm embarrassed for Molly and the way in which she laughed her way thru last nights airing of part 2 of the after the final rose. A wonderful young girl was heartbroken (Melissa) by the way all this was handled and here that side pony tail chick Molly laughed out loud the entire time this was played back on camera. By the way, I must interject here and say that my girlfriend Krissie calls Molly's pony tail a back/side pony which I think is even worse girl. The crooked side/back thing makes it appear as though she formed her pony tail while out at sea when unable to keep her balance. Again, train wreck if I've ever seen one. I'll be real honest, the Christian girl in me left my body for a moment and I just wanted to slap her and him both as they sat and smiled, joked, laughed about it all as it went on.
And also, someone needs to tell Jason that if he is going to proceed to cry every two seconds, that he should at least shed a tear when doing so. I've never seen someone be able to cry so well and not even have one stream of a tear streak down his face while doing it. The boy has skillz! Call his agent. He doesn't need to be on the Bachelor. He needs cast on days of our lives or something. Seriously! As one of my blog readers wrote on my facebook page yesterday, after watching his repeated crying spells...it's possible he might have ovaries.
And lastly...for your enjoyment, I had to post the video of Jason appearing on Jimmy Kimmel the night after that first "after the final rose" segment aired. Pay close attention to around the spot about 9 minutes and 20 seconds in when Jason claims that he thinks he and Melissa will be friends again someday. (need I say it again...? train wreck!) Jimmy Kimmel's reply to that statement makes me fall out of my chair laughing hysterically every time I watch it. Thanks Jill - for posting this on facebook. Love it!
For now, I'm off to run some much needed errands. Enjoy your Wednesday. Hugs, Angie
OHHHHH BOOOYYYYY...next Monday nights "The Bachelor" episode/season finale' is going to be a juicy one filled with nothing but drama fo' yo' Mamma. For those of you who follow the Bachelor/Bachelorette, who are you routing for? Are you hoping for Deanna to come back and whisk him away even though she let him go last season?
Or are you like..."snooze you loose" with Deanna and now wishing for Molly to win his heart? (shown below)
Or...maybe you are like me and pulling for Melissa (in the picture below) to win him over.
What is your prediction? Who will it be? I'm secretly hoping that if he doesn't pick Melissa that he will go a second round with De Anna. I know - I know...I'm a real sucker for fairy tales. I'm just not feeling Molly for some reason. Her and those side pony tails she wears are really causing me some nightmares. ;) In my nightmares, I have visions of reaching up with a machete and chopping the thing off. Scary, eh? I thought so too. Molly said on one of the episodes that she "could" get ready in 5 minutes with a pony tail and lip gloss. Ummmm....yeap, that is apparent. We see that. Definitely see that! I realize that the side pony tails are supposed to be coming back but skinny jeans came back too. However, that doesn't mean we should all run out and buy a pair. I once heard somewhere that you should quit wearing side pony tails once you pass the age of 5. I would have to concur with that opinion.
I can't believe that they are bringing De Anna back to begin with. I'm sure it is a possibility that its just all for their ratings. Guess we'll have to wait and see come next Monday, eh? No matter what, it is going to be interesting. I'd love to hear what all of you are thinking will happen regarding who he is going to pick. Who is your fav?

PS...I apologize for not getting the new spring/summer sneak peek set up tonight. Kenidi's school called and had me come get her early today due to her being sick. I kept her home yesterday with a fever and vomiting. However, by mid-day yesterday she seemed to be feeling good again. Either way, she was home with me today and I didn't get the chance to photograph a sneak peek of the new set. However, good news is...it is supposed to be 50 something degrees and sunny here tomorrow. If she is feeling better, I might try to photograph the whole ensemble tomorrow and get it listed right away rather than tease you with a sneak peek. We'll see how it all goes depending on how she is feeling. Thanks for being so patient. :)
