you know it happens too often when...

joe forgets to tell me about it.

what did he forget to tell me about? another person being taken from church in an ambulance during sacrament meeting on sunday. (i skipped with the kiddos. claire + yucky nose = no church)

and its not like this was something that happened all calm and quietly. guy starts to go down, people are jumping up to catch him, nurse in ward runs over, and meeting is stopped while bishop assists. he was a program passer-outer. nicest guy.

weird thing about this, the last few people weren't elderly. i have so many things that would be really funny to say here, but i just can't bring myself to do it. it would be mean. so just laugh to yourself at some old person/handicap pun that you can imagine me saying, k?

................

and i really need to get this off my chest. i am a little bit sick of orpah (oprah's nickname lindsay gave her) right now. she is a little bit (a lot) full of herself. don't get me wrong, she does a lot of wonderful things for lots of people, but no joke, the woman thinks that she has been through everything and can relate to every person out there. and beat their story. like today, interviewing keith urban, he is talking about his drug addiction and recovery, and then goes off on how she knows just how it is and how she has struggled throughout her life with food addiction.

really?

last i checked, we all kinda have a food addiction. like we all need food to live.

(if you have issues with weight, thats different. but don't think you're all special because you will "publicly battle" with it. we are all public, we all struggle with it. whether you need to gain or lose, you struggle. and we all need to gain or lose. k? and maybe some people have an addiction.... whatever. thats another topic. this was just a tangent. tangent over)

but it doesn't end there. she can relate to every bad relationship, every god relationship, being abused, being raped, being poor, being rich, having a bad day, being famous, having a freaking "AHA" moment, dealing with with rumors, being alone, having a teen idol, yada yada.

guess its a good thing this is the last season? oh wait, it wasn't enough to have her own show. she needs her own (no pun intended) network. all to herself. i don't think we will be getting it. and i think i'm okay with that.

and while i would have DIED to have been on her "favorite things" show, i think i would have sold half the stuff she gave out. like the brownie/lasagna pan? who likes side pieces best? HELLO the middle pieces are where its at. crunchy sides? ick. and the sweater.... oh my. so not a good color for everyone. not me anyway- pretty sure i would have blended into my walls.

and wait.... she had McDonald's food on the show today? weird....

anyone else feel this way or am i completely off my rocker? these feelings haven't stopped me from watching, but tomorrow's show might be one of the last for me. anyone else watch "sister wives?" i think it is so disturbing, but its kinda funny to watch these crazies that live not so far away get some attention.

and these are my thoughts for the night. its been kind of a yucky day. everyone keeps bringing up poop. it starts to get to you after a while.

*GAH! after publishing this post, what ad comes up on the confirmation page? an invitation to subscribe to O magazine. lets not forget the magazine with her face plastered on the front. full of yourself?

the best part about the church part is I totally helped out a little bit with it.... sorry I forgot to tell. A lot goes on at Church for me and believe it or not that kind of thing happens often enough in our ward that I don't think it out of the ordinary anymore.

Oh, Katie....you need some adult interaction...your husband is working too much. But I bet you could check with Oprah..I am SURE SHE has had two children, two and under, with a husband working all the time....I sure she would have some great "fix" and could really relate! I, like Lindsay, love it too when you blog "a rant".
Love, Shellie

"Don't they know it's time for the 'Katie Show'?" Who said that?Love it when that "middle child" speaks her mind!!

1) If you don't like Oprah, don't watch. I recommend programs about Alaska.
2) Sister wives is disturbing, not because they are polygamists, but because they emulate the church in so many ways-they really pick and choose which doctrines they live
3) Um, it's no co-inky-dink that an O magazine add showed up. Those giant computers in the sky constantly scan blogs for key words and then post ads that the bloggers and blogees might be interested in. So be careful what you post!
