Recapping the last month through bleary eyes
Posted by Natasha on February 25, 2007
It is hard to remember EVERYTHING and the truth is I have been watching the O-lady only sporadically, but this is what I have to say about it:
The Secret show–I love the idea behind it. But I felt like all those spiritual pundits were fighting for O’s attention. It was like watching all the smart people in class trying to prove how smart they are to the teacher. All the spiritual people were trying to prove how spiritual they were to their Goddess O. A couple times when Oprah would exclaim, “I have never heard of that before!” and you could almost see the ones who didn’t say it racking their brains trying to come up with something extremely zen. Maybe that should be their next book: Extreme Zen.
O disses Rosie??? Do the kids still say “dis”? My kid only says “SCREEEEEEEEEEECH!!” She’s a big Saved by the Bell fan. But I’ve gotten off track. I don’t know why O has a bug up her bonnet (that’s right; mixed cliches are more powerful) about Ro but I would ask her to STOP. Sure, Rosie called her after Columbine in a crying fit when they really didn’t know each other. But you know what, if I had Oprah’s cell phone I would be calling her after I ate too much Cake Batter ice cream from Cold Stone Creamery and my tummy was very upset. Oprah seems like she could make anything better. So what, I’m NOT going to let her soothe me? Exactly.
Finally, Ro proved her cachet to the View when she wasn’t there for a week and it was as boring and annoying as it was before she ever got there. The truth is I could only stand it for three minutes before turning it off. I started to feel mysognistic when they were all talking over each other and I wanted to save myself from myself.
Hopefully I will stop having insomnia and begin updating more. Our 4 readers wouldn’t have it any other way!

Carol, I certainly appreciate it, but I already counted you as one of the four from the previous post. But five, it seems we DO have five readers!! Woo hoo!

Guys, I know you are busy, but you need to come back to this blog so you can talk about DR. OZ DOING YOGA WITH HIS WIFE, or what was surely the skeeviest two minutes of TV this week. Kate, I know you are yogacrazy, but even you must admit it was gross and weird.

I didn’t see this!!! Is it on today?? I’ll have to see. But apparently Rosie’s wife loves Dr. Oz and has a crush on him, clearly proving she is a lesbian.

It was on Monday’s episode — the “Letters to Oprah” one. Please find it and watch. Try not to vomit as he does Warrior II pose.
