My New Addiction

Hannah came home for the weekend.  That was a bit of a surprise as she's never come home for a weekend before.  I think there were three reasons she came home.  First, it's Easter.  Second, she didn't get any quality time with us over Spring Break since she was off with her friends.  Third, her sorority is on social probation.  That last reason is probably the biggest factor in her being here but, even so, I'm OK with that.

At lunch time today, I fixed a plate and headed into the family room where Hannah was watching TV.  She had on "Million Dollar Listing - New York."  I'd never seen it before.  Now, after watching two episodes, I can't believe I've not been watching it.  All I can think about is that I need answers to the following questions:
  • How did Harsh and Purvi Padia get all that money to buy the top 5 floors (!) of the new condo property that Fredrik was showing?  Believe it or not, I found myself googling Harsh Padia so that I could find out exactly what he does.  No surpise, it's something esoteric in finance.
  • Will Fredrik and Michael be able to get along as they jointly list 949 Park?  I'm putting my money on "no."  And, why would a Mexican fiesta theme party really be that big of a draw for real estate brokers in New York?  Don't they have anything better to do?
  • Is it possible for anyone (other than Fredrik, of course) to be more annoying than Ryan?  I can't imagine that it is.  But, I think I'll keep watching to find out. 
I have to admit that I feel a little dirty admitting how hooked I think I may now be on this show.  Michelle Kleier is going to be so upset with me.  I hope she knows that there will always be room in my heart for her.
