Great...just what I need! A couple of new TV shows to watch, as if my DVR isn't busy enough!! I have 3 new addictions... Celebrity Apprentice, Cashmere Mafia and Celebrity Rehab!!
First up, Celebrity Apprentice, just when I thought that show was dead "The Donald" comes up with something that catches my attention. But I have a few issues with a couple of the "celebrities." One of the contestants on the show is Omarosa. Is she a celebrity? I don't think so, she's a reality show has been! I don't know how she wound up back on the show? She must be really good for ratings and in-fighting!!
Next, Cashmere Mafia. What a terrific guilty pleasure. It's a show about the lives of 4 powerful New York women. It's a tad bit lacking on the drama, but it has enough to keep me interested. Let's talk about the women for a minute. First, there's Mia Mason (Lucy Liu) she was just promoted to publisher of a magazine chain, upon her promotion he fiancee breaks up with her because he can't handle her success.
Then there's Zoe Burden (Frances O'Connor), she's a successful financial banker, wife and mother. She is constantly at battle to be everything to everyone all the time. Her plot line interests me most right now because her secretary was having an affair with one of her peer's and her peer promoted her secretary to Associate and now she is trying to get her fired. Very juicy!!!!
Next is Juliet Draper (Miranda Otto), she is the COO of a major hotel chain, soon to be ex-wife of a philanderer and mother. Juliet just kicked her husband out of the house for consistently cheating on her. She is in the middle of a major hotel deal with a very handsome french-man. I see an affair in the works.
Finally, there is Caitlin Dowd (Bonnie Somerville), she is a top marketing executive for a cosmetics company. Caitlin is an extremely confused little girl. The series starts off with her breaking up with a man then she starts thinking about her choice of men she dates and decides she might be a lesbian after meeting/interviewing and hiring a woman she finds attractive. They begin to date, but after a few episodes she is starting to question her lebian-ess.
Last, but not least let me re-cap Celebrity Rehab. This show is a god-damn train wreck!! I can't keep my eyes off of it!!! It's wonderful. There is a terrific cast of quasy celeb's...they are....
Jaimee Foxworth - from Family Matters
Seth "Shifty" Binzer - from the band Crazy Town
Ricco "Suave" Rodriguez - need I say more??
Daniel Baldwin - again, need I say more??

Man cheats on wife and mistress
December 9, 2007
Dear Abby: I was the other woman for seven years, involved with a man I thought was perfect. His wife knew about me. It was never an issue until he fell in love with me. After that, things changed. He began making promises and told me as soon as his wife got herself together and found a job and a place to live, he'd divorce her and be with me forever.
Two years became three, three became five. Finally I realized he'd never do what he promised, so I ended it. The problem is, he's my boss. He was my best friend, and I still had some hope. We see each other every day because of work, although I am considered an independent contractor.
A year after I called it quits he finally filed for divorce. A few months later he met this new woman. He says he loves her, but I still hurt. Every day is another day of holding back my tears, another day to hide my pain.
Today I met a woman who is a member of a group I belong to. She mentioned she knows a man who would be "perfect" for me. She said they had dated a few times over the years. Abby, the number she gave me was his. While we were together he was seeing this other woman! I am devastated.
I am still in love with him. How can I make myself forget him when we still work together? Please advise. -- Weeping in Chico, Calif.
Dear Weeping: Forget him? People only learn from the mistakes they are willing to remember. Dry your tears and get out of that office NOW. As an "independent contractor" it's time to declare your independence. Finding a job with better benefits should be a breeze, considering that all you have to show for this one is heartache.
Now, here is what I would have written...
You're a stupid whore and you deserve what you get!! You were stupid enough to let him fool you for 7 years and how could you not think that he wouldn't cheat on you too?? Move on with your bad self. You know you deserve better, you just need to believe that!!
Now here's a blog with a lesson!!!
Dear Abby!!!
This "Dear Abby" was posted in the Herald News...I thought it was sooo funny that I felt I needed all 3 of my readers to have a laugh as well!!!
Teen's nudity perplexes neighbor
December 31, 2007
Dear Abby: I have lived next door to the "Smiths" for 18 years. They're nice people. When problems have arisen, they have helped me out, and I have done the same for them. We're good neighbors and friends.
I have known the Smiths' children their whole lives. Their daughter is now 17. Their son was born a year later.
My question: Is it normal for a 16-year-old boy to walk around the house naked, in plain view of family members? No one seems to notice or care. There are no looks or comments.
In the morning he gets up around 6:45. He walks into the kitchen and fixes a bowl of cereal. Then he stands at the counter, watching the morning sports shows while eating his breakfast in the nude. There is absolutely no evidence of arousal of any kind. When the bathroom becomes available, he goes in for a shower.
I have never seen any of the other family members naked. This boy has no compunctions about being seen by his father, mother, sister or next-door neighbor. He's been nude in my presence dozens of times. I know it's common for little boys to run around without clothes on sometimes, but, Abby, he's not a little boy anymore. -- Clothes-Minded in Wisconsin Dear Clothes-Minded: Standards regarding nudity vary from family to family, and obviously the Smiths are casual and open-minded on the subject. It's possible that you have been their neighbor so long that the young man considers you part of the family.
Because he has matured sufficiently that his nudity now makes you uncomfortable, you should hang curtains on your windows that face the Smiths' kitchen -- and before dropping over there, call to ask whether he's presentable. If he's not, then don't go over.
The next time you think you aren't being watched in your own home, you probably are!!!
