The Wolf and The Butterfly

      

I have been watching I Love Lucy non-stop for 5 days. I used to watch ILL with my older sister at 5am before school when we were younger. I’ve seen every episode more than once and know the plot to every one. Seeing her again is like seeing an old friend, a good friend, but good friends get annoying after a while. You love them but they get under your skin and you need some space from them. I know that’s the case with my real friends, especially the ones that are as close as family. The whole cast of ILL is like this for me. I could strangle Ethel and Fred sometimes, especially when they get greedy. And Lucy and Ricky are worse! Now that I’m married, their antics are even more tiring. Watching the show literally stresses me out. I know its absurd because its not real but my blood pressure rises when they fight for stupid reasons. Sorry Lucy, I do love you but I can only take so much!
