Guilty Pleasures

Don't ask me why, but for some reason I love watching reality t.v. I know, it isn't really reality when you have a camera in your face 24-7, knowing that millions of people the world over could soon be viewing what you say and do. Two of my favorites lately are The Biggest Loser and Deadliest Catch (I know......WHY???) There is something so fascinating to me about these people who go out on the Bering Sea, risk their lives to catch crab, working in some of the worst weather conditions imaginable, and hoping to make a great living at the end of the season. I know I wouldn't last beyond stepping on the boat in the marina, but its fun to live vicariously through them....sort of...? One night, my husband came down the stairs and said "What are you watching? All I keep hearing are BEEP every few seconds?" Now I don't go around beeping after I watch an episode of the Deadliest Catch (definitely should not)......nor do I go and work out like a maniac after I watch the Biggest Loser (probably should). The question I pose to myself is would I watch either of these shows with my kids? No on the first (BEEP) and yes on the second....We love the Biggest Loser! They don't seem to understand my fascination with Deadliest Catch.......
