chasing amy

i rushed home from my parents house. 'temptation island' was on last night. i was appalled and intrigued last week watching 4 couples get thrown on an island with a million single, sexy (sort of) men and women looking for some action.

i watched the opening intro and heard the rules of this 'game'. my heart broke. why would any couple knowing go into that situation? to knowingly meet other people and flaunt it in your significant other's face? my god, here i am trying to figure out the why's and wonder about the what if's in my life, and there are these people willing to risk it all for reality tv.

i changed my mind about what i was going to see that night and popped in 'chasing amy'. i'm a sucker for kevin smith movies - plus i miss living in monmouth county and i wanted to see some of the old sights.

the most profound moment is when silent bob speaks. forget all that bullshit about threesomes, because that just doesn't apply in this case. but take a listen to the very end.
she was the girl, i know that now. but i pushed her away. so i spend every day since then chasing amy - so to speak.

so that's what i'm left wondering. am i doing the chasing amy bit? (insert male name in place of 'amy') or maybe i'm still looking for the one - who happens to have all the attractive qualities i've found in all of my 'amys' past.
