Rewind to LAST last Monday please

You know, not YESTERDAY, but the Monday BEFORE that. Wow. I need to get my act together. Anyway, here are my initial thoughts and commentary on the guys on the new season of the Bachelorette. I vowed up and down and all over again I would never watch the show again because of how much of a sham and plotted story it is becoming. Anyway, I love Jillian and she dresses WAYYayyyyAYYYY cute, so I say I am just watching to check out all her wonderful outfits. But I admit, a house full of guys doesn't hurt, especially when they have more drama-drama than a house full of catty girls.

Here goes (and keep in mind this is ALLL prior to last night's show-all nicely recorded as I watched on a paper towel so I wouldn't forget....because I knew I'd wait forever to post about it)

My Bachelorette standouts -GOOD & BAD :
(there seem to be a lot of D-bags this season...some of the guys I've mentioned are developing into them after watching last night's episode, some of them came out of the starting gate this way. Bless their little souls.)

Juan- CA-UTE building contractor from Cali...maybe I just have a thing for building contractors? ehh, Mr. Dunn-dee?

Kipton- laid back surfer guy from Cali, not all that cute, but I might just have a crush on his name

Wes-Country twang-twang guitar playing sweetie from Austin, TX. Playing the guitar and singing country songs wins me over for sure, but that gold chain he had on was one big "oh no he didn't" (ps, thoughts on him have changed after watching last night)

Greg- eek, I can't even remember if he made it through the first round of cuts, but he seemed like SUCH an ego-maniac last week

Josh-once again, can't remember if he made it through cuts (I don't think so) but he was a lifeguard and he just creeped me out for some reason. and he was a mega cheeseball.

Mark-pizza shop owner-umm CUTE- does he deliver?!! Can't remember if he made it through round one either- I think so though.

Jesse-he was into details and I thought it was soooo cute. He was a winemaker (umm, fun!) and he had on the "aspiring Canadian" shirt. sweeeet.

Michael-breakdancer with a GREAT personality. he would definitely be one of my good friends. guess that's not the point of the show, though? he's so-so on looks, but he seems SO easy to get along with. may turn out to friend material for her too, though.

AND MY HUGEST CRUSH EVER (outside of Ryan from the season with Trista as the Bachelorette)
THE ONE, THE ONLY JAKE!!- WOW. what else can I say. I see him making it pretty far. He's super adorable, a pilot, and from TEXAS! does it get any better?

Ok, and as a sidenote, I need the jewelry that Jillian wore in the first episode for my wedding gown. Thanks. [[APPARENTLY, there is not a SINGLE photo of the beautiful diamond outlined flower with pearl center earrings and matching cuff bracelet that she wore.]] HELP PLEASE!!

Oh, and I found this website that tells where she found her fringed mini dress for the date with Jake (you can find a very similar one at Forever21 also) and the black & white mini that Mr. Dunn-dee fell in love with. He admitted he has a thing for black & white. I've noticed this over three years - everything he ever buys or picks out for me....black and white. always. Soooo, I might have to make the purchase on this black & white dress like Jillian's.
