Stupid Writers

Alexis' guilty pleasure #154 –– I enjoy watching soap operas. In fact I have watched Days of Our Lives (AKA: DOOL) since I was a kid.

My days are so busy (and well I would feel a wee bit guilty watching soaps all day long) that I have grown addicted to Soapnet. Let me stop here to say that Soapnet is an insomniacs answer to prayer. Hanging out in Salem or Pine Valley is so much better than watching all night marathon's of The Fresh Prince of Belair (sorry Will).

Somehow I have moved from just watching DOOL to also watching General Hospital and All My Children. I am trying really hard to not get all caught up on One Life to Live, but the whole Rex and Gigi storyline is making it hard.

Anyways, I digress. Back to the whole purpose of this post. What are some of these writers thinking? I mean come on... let Sami finally be happy. As much as I like listening to EJs sexy accent, she really belongs with Lucas so I can watch more shirtless Lucas scenes. And John, please if I have to watch him do his who tooted look one more time I may vomit. And on All My Children, are these writers insane?? Finally Babe and JR are back together. JR has lost the anger, stopped drinking, has made amends with his past and they KILL BABE OFF. Nuts I tell you. Completely. Crazy. And General Hospital, Carly & Sonny, Carly & Jax, Carly & Nicholas... $10 says within the next year Carly will have a night with Jason too. Just let that poor woman find a man and hang with him. And Laura –– crazy not crazy, crazy, not crazy. It switches so quick I am going crazy figuring it out.

And no before you ask. I have never once eaten a bon bon while watching these trash shows. Matt won't let me eat in the bed. (However this could be a benefit of Matt being in Japan and me still being in the states.)

And These Are The Days of Our Lives

One thing I remember about staying home with my mom when I was little was watching Days of Our Lives. I can easily remember when Bo finally proposed to Hope after she was shot, and when Jack & Jennifer got married, the first time. And all the characters that we fail to hear about now.

Days of Our Lives is one of the guilty pleasures I have at night when I can't sleep. And I read recaps and spoilers every week. Hey, I have to find out if Sami and Lucas will finally get together or if once again they will be torn apart. If Shawn and Belle will ever live happily ever after with Claire, or will Victor and crazy Philip keep them apart. And what is up with Marlena and John. That storyline is really weird.

So when I have missed an evening or just want a recap of what has happened, I have found myself looking at this really good site with Days of our Lives updates. And to let you in on a little secret, that site has all the soaps. (which has been great with my All My Children addiction too).
