Thursday already. NaBloPoMo day 1.
I am only mildly ashamed to admit that I completely opted out of Halloween this year. There was no trick or treating, nor did we hand out candy; instead I turned out all the lights and cuddled in the dark with Carter watching The Family Guy. Perfect children’s show. Yes. I know.
Once I started to talk about how the nausea was fading and I was mildly feeling like myself again, I knew I had jinxed it. Oh, had I ever. Last night I was on the verge of weeping I felt so bad. Bedtime couldn’t come fast enough for me (since Carter and I have been going to bed at the same time lately).
Why is it that when you take a moment to profess the Good News that you’re feeling better, or the baby is sleeping through the night, there’s been less tantrums and the house is finally clean that they all crumble to shit before your very eyes? Crumbling so fast that in an instant, you feel like shit, the house is a mess, the kid won’t stop screaming and he refuses to go to bed.
Luckily only the first two happened to me last night; if the kid also had a meltdown and wouldn’t go to bed, I may have just lost my shit all together.
Speaking of losing their shit. Um Britney lately? Wow.
I am seriously and genuinely worried about that chick. Call me a weirdo, or stupid or whatever. I am worried about her. Latest reports are saying that the day after losing custody of her children she had a huge party at her house where she offered some guy the opportunity to snort a line of coke of her chest.
What more could possibly go wrong for her? From losing her children, a huge custody fight with her loser ex-husband, hitting cars and being charged with a hit and run, driving over paparazzi, parenting classes, and constant public scrutiny, how has she not completely lost her shit. Granted, she’s completely high and/or drunk most of the time. I think I would be either dead, in a padded room, hiding in the corner rocking back and forth crying or possibly a full blown agoraphobic or social phobic.
And when I think about how fucked things are for her, I am grateful for the fact that my biggest complaint is morning sickness. So Britney, I thank you for that.
Yet, no matter how fucked up things have gotten for her, she remains number one with her new album release.
I don’t know how she does it. All I can do is shake my head.
And add Blackout to my Christmas Wishlist.
It’s Britney bitch!
true….looking at celebrities lives sure make our own look decent. And why is she number one on the album release? Most likely because of all the media focus on her. People want to know if she sounds bad or not. Any publicity is good publicity.
Poor girl. She has some serious issues. I feel bad for her kids.

I really don’t have anything to say about Brittney, but I haven’t come by and comented lately. I figured the first day of NABLO whatever would be a good day to do it. Hi.

She’s a drug addict. They do crazy and irratioanl things. She needs help far away form Hollywood. So sad. Such a beautiful and nice girl (without the drugs)….wasting her life away.

I just feel sorry for her. I know plenty of non-famous people with screwed up lives, and snarking on Britney just makes me feel like a hypocrite. Not enough to stop me from watching the trainwreck…

somehow, as messed up as she is…everyone is still watching what she is doing, they are still buying her records…so, regardless of how screwed up her personal life is, it’s helping to fuel her stardom. as much wrong as she is doing, she must be doing something right!

I’ve never like “her music” or anything, but since she became a fellow-Mother and developed all of these problems, I’ve surprised myself (and my husband who still goes-off about her) at the empathy and sorrow I feel for her and her little-ones. The oldest is almost the same age as our boy. The way I look at it, I think it’s fairly obvious that she’s suffering from extreme post-partum depression (probably psychosis at this point), I mean 2 babies BACK-to-BACK like that, with someone she basically barely knew, who had a lot of young-ones already and had JUST fathered a baby w/someone else, her fame, the constant scrutiny, problems w/her mom, the throng’s of Photographers/media, etc. AND THEN add in serious drug and alchol use which quickly turned to addiction/abuse and her young-age. Good-Lord, she doesn’t stand a chance, I know she loves those babies dearly, it just shows how evil and awful drugs are, they can make a Mother’s love (which we all know is SO strong) go on the back burner for the drugs. SO sad. I just saw a magazine at the grocery checkout yesterday that said she may be pregnant AGAIN! Lord I hope not. But yes, it makes one feel much more appreciated of your own life doesn’t it?!
