Will Sam die? Who will be Sonny’s next conquest? What other mob members are going to show up? Can Carly deliver a baby? Who will be killed next? Who will die, but will still be on the show? If you haven’t guessed, these are questions that I ponder every time I watch a daytime soap called “General Hospital.” Dun! Dun! Dun! Dun!!!
First off, I keep myself busy, so why do I have to stop everything at 2 P.M. to watch this show? I justify it by saying that it is a good time to eat lunch, but lets face it…I’m hooked.
I’ve watched General Hospital for 30 years. Some of the characters have never changed. Others have left and then suddenly reappeared. Some characters don’t even look like they have aged. I sure have, so what is their secret? There are the heros that makes your heart throb and the villains that you hate. Some of the villains also make your heart skip a beat (or two). There are topics that I have not enjoyed (I don't watch) and others that I absolutely can’t miss.
Right now there's a new "mob" Queen that's making the story line really interesting. Sam (one of my favorites) has been in an accident. It could be four people that hit her. One is a surgeon who’s an alcoholic, another is a pregnant mom (who hates Sam), and then there's Elizabeth that's on painkillers and finally Nicholas who has a disease that makes him "black out." To top it off, there is a killer/strangler that is loose in the streets of Port Charles. Who will be his next victim? Can you see why I'm addicted?
Sometimes my girls and I talk about these characters as if they are real people. Such is the life of the soap opera world. Oh, look at the time. I need to go eat lunch (wink). Maybe I can write more another time. Stay tuned...

Oh yes! I just figured out who the "Text message killer" is, too, (I think). I agree, it's addictive! My husband laughs and rolls his eyes at me whenever we discuss the most recent story lines. I have to admit, however, that I'm addicted to it because I grew up with it (I'm 30...). If it were another soap, like "Days..." I'd probably be watching it instead!
That's funny about Jason. I actually laugh and roll my eyes whenever Yuni turns her favorite "novelas" (soaps) on. Forever I will have the name "Max Scorpio" ingrained in my mind. Plus, I always thought Felicia was hot.
Ah, the memories. I even get to do the eye roll! Mom and Alisha are more obsessed than I, seeing as I work full time. But, I do enjoy thinking about someone elses problems for a change. And soaps are full of problems. ;)
