I really am very, very sorry....

...but I am now a fully-fledged Big Brother house addict. I watch it at least once a day. See what being incapacitated for a fortnight does to you?

Anyway, the sad thing is that BB-related psychological trauma is now kicking in. This always happens if I allow myself to get sucked in. Usually towards the end of a series, I get unhealthily involved with one housemate or other. This began many moons ago, as I felt distressed on behalf of an expelled Nasty Nick......

I am now emotionally attached to Amy. She seems very eager to be liked (sniff) and a little bit dim. She's ended up being blamed by everyone for recent 'semi-evictions' into the Halfway House. (sniff, sniff) Carole is trying to make everybody hate her. (waaaaiiiilll!) And Liam - EVEN LIAM - is being a stereotypical male chauvinist git to her. I had liked Liam. I am so let down. (boo hooooooooo!)

Really, I think it's a good job that I can't follow the lives of my actual acquaintances in the amount of detail that Big Brother allows. Being party to all the tiny social complexities of a person's existence turns me into a hyper-empathetic nervous wreck.

Enough time wasting. Must get back to the telly.......
