I always love the Hometown Visit show because I think you really learn a lot about the suitors. The only letdown was that they all went fairly well....where was the one trainwreck visit like they usually have? Freaking adorable Jillian - no one can hate her!
Let's start from the beginning. LOVED the visit with Reid's family. He is just the cutest thing (especially with those glasses....YUM). I'm really liking him the more I see them together and it looked like she'd fit in perfectly with the family (although, to be fair, she did seem to blend with all of them).
Next she was off to see Michael's family. I loved how quickly she shot down Michael trying to play himself off as his twin (were they really identical? I could tell them apart). I thought they were fun and I know he was smitten, but could he really provide? I mean, doesn't he work as a breakdance instructor? I'm just saying. Do you think the show paid for his sister to come home?
Kiptyn's family seemed a little hoity toity at first, but then I kinda got used to them. The hot tub joke was hysterical (but the mom reminded me of the roommate on There's Something About Mary - I don't know why). I was concerned by his comment about not getting engaged. 
Jesse's family visit was OK, but I was far more interested in his delicious tasty treat of a brother, Jacob (who just happens to be good friends with my dear friend Pants - hook it up, my friend!). How YOU doin', Jacob? There's always been something lacking with Jesse...I can't put my finger on it. I think he's sweet, but he was just missing some component with her.
Wes....oh Wes. What a freaking slimeball. Seriously. Originally I couldn't figure out why she'd still keep that lame-o around, but after watching the whole thing, I've got some theories. I think she believed him (over Jake?!? Dreamy, noble, future-father-of-my-children, Jake?!!?) because of the following reasons:

I think she believed him (over Jake?!? Dreamy, noble, future-father-of-my-children, Jake?!!?) because of the following reasons:
1) His accent/Southern drawl. For some reason it makes everything sound more plausible (even coming out of his lying mouth).
2) He was a VERY good liar....even challenging Jakey-poo.
3) He's got three sisters and a mom who all defended him. Jillian seems like someone who could be swayed by that many women in a room. Also, a guy who only has sisters comes across as more sensitive for some reason. I can't explain it.
4) Oh, Jillian isn't thinking with her brain. Yep, that's the only logical conclusion.
The big surprise, of course, was having Ed back. Welcome back, dreamboat! I loved how she said, "I can't handle anymore surprises" and then he knocked on the door and said, "Surprise!" Too funny. I know it probably seems unfair to the other guys for him to come back, but it was also pretty courageous. Plus, had he stayed to begin with, there's no way would Michael and/or Jesse made it this far. You know it's true. Michael skated in this far on a prayer.
I think the previews look good. I'm going to make a prediction: Last two standing (thanks, Jesse, for also having this opinion) will be: Ed and Reid. I could be wrong, but I'm going to hope she pulls her head out and kicks Wes the Slimeball to the curb. It's going to be a great finale! :)

Now, I wasn't a huge Punky Brewster fan....I mean, yes, I watched it, but it was my sister who LOVED it. I just kinda tolerated it. I did see Soleil at Sundance a LONG time ago, but chickened out at asking for a picture. I'm so glad we were able to cross paths again and I could get my courage up! :)
I actually waited on her brother, Meeno Peluce (who I recognized from being in People magazine, as well as some Traveler show when he was younger), once in Morro Bay. He was really nice, too (and cute!). It must run in the family. :)
Solange Knowles much have loved the Power Rangers and/or Rainbow Brite growing up. I have no words.
Hey Jude, sweetie, you appear to have forgotten your shirt. You see, what you're wearing is called a VEST, which should be worn OVER a shirt. Now, I love to see your hot bod anytime, don't get me wrong...I just thought I'd try to help. Smooches!
Now, what is the biggest thing to notice in this lovely family portrait of SJP and Ferris? That's right - they finally cut that kid's hair! Glory glory! :) Wahoo! Finally!
Has Rihanna been taken over by aliens? I mean, really. What other reason could there be for this attire?
Dear McDreamy: I love you. That's really all I wanted to say. Oh, and you're delicious. Yum.
In case it's hard to read, it says: "I want a boyfriend who is sensitive and caring...but they already have their OWN boyfriends!" :) Too true!
You see, we've got this "secret society" of picture hounds and we all talk and say who we've seen, what they were wearing, where we last saw them, etc. (stop judging). Anyway, I was pleasantly surprised to go into a film and have someone say to me, "Did you see John Krasinski? He just walked by." Score! I knew celebs don't usually stay for the Q&A session after the film (when it's not their film, that is), so I made sure to go into the lobby area as soon as the film ended and sure enough, there he was. Hooray! Now, you'd think that since I anticipated his arrival that I'd be somewhat prepared. But, I was not. In fact, I was a bundle of nerves - completely star-struck, unable to speak, shaking (always classy), and fumbling around for my camera which had mysteriously gone missing into the deep recesses of my purse. Luckily, John was, not surprisingly, the nicest guy ever. He was like, "Hey, no problem, take your time." Love him. What a sweetheart. Now, if only I'd had the nerve to pledge my undying love. Oh, wait. Now that might be crazy (who, me?).
Does Megan Fox know she's got a tiger on her shirt and some sort of spider webs on her feet?
Oh, Beyonce. It was so nice of you to stop by the BET awards before heading to your prom.
Excuse me, Lady Gaga? I believe you've got what appears to be a donut of some sort on your head.
My favorite part about this picture of Mariah (sporting one of my dresses from Junior High - bless her heart) is the crazed fan open-mouthed and screaming. She might pass out. Check out her rainbow bracelet - such a dedicated fan! I wonder if she's got a butterfly tattoo in honor of Ms. Carey? I wouldn't put it past her.
Oh, look - it's White Trash Barbie.
I ran into him on Main Street while he was being interviewed with Randy Quaid. He was as sweet as can be (although I'm still not sure why he was rocking this ridiculous quasi-mohawk. He's much cuter than that).
The problem is, I can't fall asleep to save my life. I thought the problem was the loss of my beloved pillow, as the replacement just hasn't been cutting it. Yesterday I bought another new pillow (a Joe Boxer pillow that I already love with all my heart), which I can tell is going to be awesome. Still, sleep eludes me forever and ever. Last night I think I finally fell asleep around 4 a.m. Ugh! What's wrong with me? Why can't I sleep? While I'm no stranger to insomnia, I kinda thought my neverending, all-encompassing, life-crippling depression would trump stupid insomnia. Apparently I thought wrong. :(
Fergie Ferg's puffy sleeves look like they might possibly take flight at some point. At least she's got some serious shoes on - if they were red she could click three times and return to Kansas.
Is Lucy Liu's dress made out of some sort of flowers on top? Or is it more of a cloud-type material?
Do you think the Madden brothers compare tattoos to see who has the most ink? Who would win?
Mischa, sweetie, you seem to have forgotten your pants again. Nice tights, but they're NOT pants. MMMm, K? You might want to go home and change.
What is Kristen Bell wearing? Is it a corset? Is it some castaway dress from Dancing With The Stars? Does it make a cha-cha-cha sound when she dances?
