my alone problem

Well, I know I said I wouldn't really talk about myself too much in the blog, but I might make an exception or two. I was discussing with my ever needy smart and beautiful sister in law about my overall content with being alone and living alone. That's right. I enjoy solitary confinement. Of course, I miss my husband, duh, but I do a pretty good job of staying happy in an empty place. So how do I keep myself from going crazy? TV!!! That's right. Hit up ninjavideo, hulu, torrents, and just watch everything and anything.

Here's a stupid trend I've noticed. When my husband is away, I watch all these love stories and romantic shows. FYI, I just started Devil Beside You, it's a Taiwanese drama that Teedha is in love with (actually she's just in love with Mike He). It's an old show, but I never watched it. Plus, I think it's time to brush up on my Chinese, and dramas actually help oddly enough.

Well, so now I'm alone and watching cheesy love stories about girls and boys who can never tell each other "I like you". Why? BECAUSE ASIAN PEOPLE HAVE NO FEELINGS. That's totally not true, but I do think that they have problems being verbal about their emotions. Hence, every romantic drama is 20 episodes of beating around the bush, and the last episode features the first kiss. Wow...what a tease. If I watched nip/tuck after a drama, I might die of shock aka "aiya! shockuuuu! too much secksssy!" hahaha. (for some reason, fob humor has reappeared in my life, and it has never been funnier.)

update: I was wrong about the plot for Devil Beside You. Getting to 1st base every other episode is progress to me! Sigh...how did I get sucked into another drama?!

    I don't mind being alone either when B is away. TV is also my friend. And Netflix. And books. Mostly food. It's always a good time.

    Sadly though, no Asian dramas. I prefer my love story teases from Asian Karaoke music videos. Much more fun.

    Much more fun and condensed! That is definitely smarter and more effective. :D Don't ever get into Asian dramas, you'll be stuck to your computer and decompose. Really.

    You're not needy, stupid. It was supposed to be an ironic contrast to me being weird and alone, vs you and normal human contact.
    alone me=normal, normal you=needy.
