A Utah Solution to the Bachelor's Problem

I stayed up WAY too late last night watching the season finale of "The Bachelor." I'm embarrassed to admit how sucked in I was, but I have been all season long. Even Bruce was "contaminated" by me, and had watched enough to have a favorite going in to last night. What it came down to was (SPOILER ALERT! SPOILER ALERT!) was that Jason proposed to one girl, who accepted, but by the time the "After the Final Rose" rolled around six weeks later, he was dumping that girl to beg for a second chance with girl #2.

Kate was coloring next to me, and I didn't think she was even paying attention, but she soon turned to me and said, "He should just marry BOTH of them. Geez!"

Kiki is a magician. She dropped some dice while playing with a Yahtzee game, and when she bent down to pick it up, she picked up a Cheeto from under the couch instead, then held it up and shouted, "TA-NA!"

Liza had a happy reunion with her kids on Sunday night. One of Charlie's final acts was to smear my bathroom walls with fecal matter, then drag his butt across my bath mat to wipe. "...and with that, I bid you farewell," is what I imagined him thinking. I asked Liza if that's how they do things in Idaho, but she swears she doesn't know where he learned that. Her claims aside, I'll be bringing my own bathroom linens next time I visit. Bruce and I are making plans for our own "personal mini-vacay" and I'll be teaching my kids to puke with no provocation to exact my revenge as I exercise the babysitting reciprocity clause in my sister contract.
