More Cursing. F*&%$#@* PMS.

I just finished watching the Today show spot on Mommy Blogging and I for one am very disappointed in Ms. Dooce. I was planning on watching this because it featured a group interview that included Mir , but when I found out it would be Kathie Lee Gifford interviewing Heather? I was all over that shit. I wanted a severe smack down, WWf style. Gifford in red, white and blue spandex, Heather in slimming and chic black, maybe a little silver and pink in there. I don't know.

But no! Perfectly civil and nicey-nice. Hoda and Kathie were all, "I don't know, doesn't it bother you, putting it all out there, won't your daughter resent you, blah blah, blah." Heather did a pretty good job of defending herself, but it bothers me that she had to. I had a bit of hope at the end, when Kathie Lee stepped all over a point Heather was making, but no. Not one smack. Not even a slap. Though when Heather slapped her own forehead and rolled her eyes, it was pretty great.

And here's my question for Kathie Lee: How is what we are doing any different from you blathering on about your children, showing photos and bringing them on camera over national television for 15 years? I would think someone like Kathie Lee would be a little less likely to judge another woman after all the flack she's taken over the years. I think this is at the heart of why the woman drives me nuts. She just doesn't see the connection.

Okay, no more posting until I have my PMS in hand.

Maybe she knows something about what her kids went through that we don't.

But I still wish she'd have gotten the smack on her head instead of Heather. Get with the program, old-timer! Blogging is where it's at!

I guess I missed it but DON"T believe things in the news. I used to write for NBC news in Los Angeles. My job was to instill fright and to twist the truth. With the power of editing who knows what was really said. Also Kathie's lines were completely scripted by someone else...and it really has nothing to do with what Kathie would like to ask her.

Welcome to My World

It's a crazy one. Here's the guide.


Mr. Clairol: My darling husband and love of my life. He's a mechanic, dyes his hair platinum blond and drives to work on a Vespa. I swear he isn't gay.


Drama Queen: My fourteen year old daughter who is frighteningly brilliant and gorgeous to boot. Of course, I am her mother.


Missy Hoohaw: The four year old daughter. She loves animals and roughhousing and earned her name by being a 28 year old Marine in a preschooler's body. No, she doesn't swear and drink. But she can run twenty miles in the rain and give a mighty Hoo-rah.

Big Red: Our toddler son, who is redheaded and proud of it. He's got a healthy temper and the sweetest smile this side of the Mississippi, so it evens out. I was worried about defending him from his sisters at first. Now, I worry about the girls.


The Beast: Our dog, who is a mutt, heavy on the Great Dane. He's named after a heavy metal guitarist in my husband's all time favorite band. This says it all, believe me.


This is my life. Try not to be too jealous.
