Amen! I avoid setting people up like the plague -- if I think somebody might hit it off, I just tell them to check-out so and so and leave it to them. augh. Anytime I heard, "He's a really nice guy" back in my single days, I wanted to hide."<br /><br />It’s the Ides of March and she might as well have been Julius Caesar. awesome!<br /><br />And the calling her dad to tell him she'll need a bigger place to leave, ouch! but funny. She's a pretty girl, she's really not heavy -- just did that "I'm going to be on TV so I won't eat for three months beforehand" and got superskinny for her "slap-heard-round-the-world." I liked her. But I still laughed at your weight references!<br /><br />Glad to see this Boring Bachelor go away, and rest assured, Emily will be Some Single Gal in Austin really soon! Good luck!

Derek, thanks for putting the good word in for me with the boys. I'm happy you enjoyed a healthy debate over a few cosmos. Nikki, I'm in fear of isolating some rabid Texas football fans but against my better judgment I'll tell you that I went to the University of Texas right here in my beloved Austin. I don't get into the school loyalty debate with the exception of Thanksgiving week and during bowl season. Everyone is welcome in my book.

With that said, we had a chance to see Brad's twin and I read on a previous post the Some Guy has a twin as well. Me and the boys spent the night drinking cosmos and arguing over who would rather have which set of twins for a weekend getaway in Costa Rica. As you can imagine, my pick is Some Guy and his brother....and I don't even know what DP's twin looks like....nor do I care, girlfriends!!!<br />Love and laughs,<br />DerekAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2462526990120254693.post-49726755098959094152011-03-16T09:32:46.654-05:002011-03-16T09:32:46.654-05:00Great Recap - can't wait for the off season!Great Recap - can't wait for the off season!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2462526990120254693.post-79322012387024003172011-03-16T08:32:46.492-05:002011-03-16T08:32:46.492-05:00Great work DP...did you really make it through the...Great work DP...did you really make it through the whole finale without any Lone Stars?

You truly captured wh...Oh my goodness gracious, DP. You truly captured why I sit through 10+ weeks of this show's nonsense, aside from greatly enjoying your witty blog. It's all for that very romantic moment, when the contractually-silenced star of the show finally declares his feelings for the object of his affection, thereby restoring my faith in true love. At least, that is, until ATFR.<br /><br />Honestly, I thought Brad's proposal/Emily's response was a very touching scene, though I doubt the engagement will last terribly long. You probably won't need to embark on the Get Over The Brad/Emily Engagement Roadtrip (GOT BEER) after all, much to the dismay of your adoring fans here in DC. We were looking forward to a meet and greet, but it looks like Derek will instead be having all the fun! <br /><br />Thanks for a topnotch recap and for going light on Chantal ("coincidental" fat references notwithstanding). I really felt for her last night. But repeatedly telling a guy with Brad's issues that you love him was probably not the best idea. Taking it slowly, as Emily did, was the way to win his heart. Of course, it certainly didn't hurt that Emily was the best of Roberto (gorgeous, sexy) and Chris L. (sweet, grieving) combined. And her new look is even better; I hope your heart can take it!dp2noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2462526990120254693.post-52612357316372040592011-03-15T17:59:54.523-05:002011-03-15T17:59:54.523-05:00I thought you'd mention Brad's mom calling...I thought you'd mention Brad's mom calling Chantel "precious" for sure after your last blog!<br /><br />Also...Ashley for the bachelorette: UGH!
