I spent half an hour tonight, like I do every Monday night at ten, getting wrapped up in the lives of a group of friends that live in LA. Or more specifically, The Hills. I found myself empathizing with a boy that Audrina broke up with, feeling irritation toward Spencer for how he treated Stephanie's new boyfriend, and making predictions about Lauren and Brody's relationship. I engaged in a debate about Lo Bosworth's positive and negative qualities like I knew her personally. I gasped out loud (twice) when I saw the teasers for next week's episode- and I was not alone in doing so. What makes their lives so interesting that I will spend half an hour of mine just observing? I don't know, but what I do know is that Audrina needs to get her stuff together.
I mean, really. Justin Bobby? Bad choice.

I agree! I sometimes wonder why I care so much about these people who I don't know (though sometimes I swear I do!) because I know they'd never be even half as interested in my life! Shows you how powerful MTV and the timing of camera shots are: ) Your post made me smile!
Ha-ha! One of my favorite bands was on "The Hills," and a few of the girls were in the studio while they were recording. One of the girls YAWNED and said she wanted to be elsewhere, and I was just like, "YOU SPOILED BRAT!!" As if this person could hear me. It's not hard to get wrapped up, but I try to avoid it at all costs. Ha-ha!
