Living with a woman can is very rewarding. I enjoy it on every level. I have made some peculiar observations about my woman that I think are very strange.
Lets start off simple. Televsion. A great invention that I use as an escape. I watch sports and movies to my mind of the fact that I have a huge amount of debt and a whole lot of inconsistent work. I watch the discovery channel a lot. My favorite show is mythbusters. I enjoy the science and it makes me feel smart even though most of the time I find myself completely zoned out of the science portion and am really just waiting for them to break or blow something up, which they usually do.
My girl watches cooking shows, do it yourself home improvement shows, and reality shows that are as real as the fake breasts on the women in them. I have come to enjoy the cooking shows to a degree. My favs are throw down with that Irish guy and iron chef with that Irish guy. Paula Dean's shows are ok just cause the food looks so good that a single serving could cause a lifetime supply of calories. I don't like when she talks to her guests and makes them sing or tell uncomfortable stories. Mostly because I get worried that she is gonna burn the Donut Burgers. Rachel Ray is annoying. I find myself oddly attracted to her but I have a feeling her food doesn't taste as good as she pretends it does.
As far as the home improvement shows go I tend to find them close to unwatchable. Mostly because they make things look so easy with magic budgets appearing out of nowhere. I hate that shit. I wouldn't care about these shows if they didn't make people think that by watching them they could do the same stuff. Painting isn't bad, but anything beyond that is a pain in the ass. Especially when they tear down walls and do major additions. That shit is hard and I know they made it look easy on that half hour show but they don't show you actual labor just before and after because no one wants to watch a husband call his wife a "heartless cunt" because they accidentally put the new windows in backwards.
Finally the reality shows. My girl loves the Hills and The Girls Next Door and The Realhouse Wives of NYc and Orange County. I find her enjoyment of these shows so odd because she wouldn't want to be friends or even come in contact with these women at all in real life but she will follow their lives through scripted reality tv bullshit. The Hills bothers me the most because they have that show filmed like a movie. They are actors and are doing takes. Thats why they have shots of everyone from a million angles because they tell them what to say. People like that aren't that interesting in real life and I pray for illness to come to them.
