This was going to be yesterday’s post, but I woke myself yelling because of a disturbing dream I was having, and it really stuck with me most of the day. I don’t remember much of it, but what I do remember was this ominous presence that I could only feel (kind of a ghost like feeling) and I was trying to yell at it to go away. At first, I could barely get the words out because my mouth was so dry, like trying to talk with a mouthful of crackers. I finally yelled “go away” and I woke myself up. I’m not 100% sure that I yelled out loud, but I’m pretty sure I said it as I was waking. It’s a wonder I ever close my eyes some nights 😳.
But let’s not dwell anymore on my idiosyncrasies (damn, I almost spelled it right – thank you spellcheck 😁). Instead let’s turn to my new favorite reality show and it season 2 premiere – I’m in Love with a Mama’s Boy. Hold on, someone’s knocking on the door…
I’m back, just some new neighbor children looking to see who has kids on the block. Nice kids, I’ll have to find time to meet their mom, who is a doctor and former gymnast. Now I feel inadequate, SSSSIIIIGGGGHHH 😆😆😆.
I know you’re wondering, why should you watch such a strange show and I’m going to tell you why – for the shadiness of the editors! They will interview peripheral people that interact with the mother son duos (and sometimes the SO’s) and watching them struggle to be polite about how awkward the situation is priceless. And sometimes, they will say exactly what we are all thinking – TV gold in my book 😁! There are many other shady moments, but those are my favorite.
The red flag warnings are also useful for any woman considering a relationship with a mama’s boy. If the mom is as hardcore as these moms are, you may want to rethink dating the guy. I mean seriously, rethink it 😬! The fact that some of the women came back for season 2 has me wondering (and worried) about them 🤔.
Lastly, it serves as a cautionary tale. I texted my sister and said if she acts like these mothers, we are going to have a serious discussion, which may or may not involve a smack upside the head, just saying 🤷🏼♀️🤣.
It’s as annoying as it is funny, but I like it. Also, I think I’ve come up with TLC’s new tagline “Putting the dysfunction in dysfunctional (I kill myself 🤣🤣🤣).
Reality TV – It’s my thing, let it go 😜.
