We are taking a vow of silence to mentally prepare for the season finale of the Bachelorette, the most dramatic season finale in Bachelorette history. Word is that something happens that has “never happened before” on the Bachelorette or Bachelor…so, consider this your last chance to get your predictions out.
To take bets on the Bachelorette. It’s down to two, and Frank is a tool. Below are the same photos Ali uses each week to decide who her one true love is and who to place photo side down. For whatever reason, Bachlorette / Bachelor cast photos always look somewhat different than the cast does on TV. However. The dogtags remain the same. Here is Roberto, and here is Chris. We ask you, dear readers, who will win?
This journey began on college spring break. (Think less fraternity cruise line and more girls driving to Stuart, Florida). This day, we were playing the game, “Which Sex and the City character are you?” The obvious victims were easy to spot…girl who has everything put together, lots of crew neck sweaters and a large stationary collection, Charlotte. Girl who is promiscuously overstated and LOVES to talk about it, Samantha. And then there were two. And in the same easy and flippant way the first two were labeled, friend was labeled the obscenely cute and quirky Carrie Bradshaw, and I was left with Miranda Hobbs. I mean, sure, I sometimes wear clothes that are too baggy; I have gone on some really bad dates where the outcome may or may not have been my fault; I can be a tad insecure and jealous of my friends’ relationships; I trend towards skinny guys with glasses; I notoriously spent a little more time studying than partying; I over-analyze relationships that are not real; I am a horrible flirt and am often described as “awkward;” and I have had some really bad haircuts, but I AM NOT MIRANDA! So my journeyto change my image began. I dream about being daring, edgy, sexy and a little irresponsible. I am not there yet, but I dream of the day when someone says, here comes Ace, she’s a total…
What about you? Which SATC character are you (be honest) and who do you want to be?
As we learned from our girls, Charlotte, Samantha, Miranda, and Carrie…”Sometimes you just have to get away with the girls”. It’s not Abu Dhabi, but Readers Elinor, Melby, Edykes and elaney are headed to Costa Rica for 8 days. But don’t worry…the elaney interns will take good care of you while we’re gone. Here’s what you have to look forward to:
Monday: Reader Ace Tuesday: Reader ct Wednesday: Reader Mo Thursday: Reader JLAL Friday: Reader Isa
We will miss you! And we can’t lie…we are afraid of being without bberry / email / elaney for 8 days…but we will take lots of pics and post them when we’re home. Pura Vida!
New season of the Bachelorette premieres Monday! As requested by Reader Betsy Metcalf, you wanna know all about it. Here’s the trailer from ABC…Ali is BY FAR the coolest girl that has been on the show. Vicious Vienna and Disney Princess Tenley are so out, and Ali is in!! The fellas look kinda cute this season (little cheesy…imagine that). Apparently they really try to find guys that they think the girl will like, so here’s to hoping for Ali!
So, reader survey…are you still wrapped up in the Rose Ceremony or are you over it like Jake was over Elizabeth’s attitude?
co-worker bff (with slight disdain): ”elaney, are you okay?” elaney (with subtle teardrops in eyes): ”yes! listening to “Imagine” and “True Colors” from the Glee soundtrack. Can’t wait for tonight!!” co-worker bff: ”Okay, well you might want to get it together…”
