I hope she gets the help she needs. Her oldest daughter has reached the age Heather was when she experienced trauma as a child, and she's acting out all over the place. In my opinion. How did that little detail slip her mind?
I agree completely. Oh, the book - let's see Taking old blog posts and recycling them into a book and calling it "new"? Monetizing your daughter? Yeah, she's pretty predictable. I love this post. Of course, I don't wish any serious harm to her family, but if it's wrong to say someone is a smug motherfucker and to feel the Schadenfreude when she is having difficulties of her own making, then I'm right up there with you.
Interesting comment about her friend Maggie Mighty Girl, another worthless blogger with no real job egged her on to kick John out now that Maggie is single. BTW, Maggie is also quite smug and she was dumped by her husband, after many public declarations of how wonderful and perfect their marriage was And to the commenter above who keeps yammering on about how horrible and mean we are and who keeps bleating about the chee-ill-drun, thanks for the reminder.
Won't someone think of the children? Obviously, Douche was not thinking about her kids when she chose to have them when she herself is mentally unstable and she's in a questionable marriage. How completely selfish and mean of her. And generally, no, I don't feel overly bad for them. I feel bad for someone like my own mother, who was widowed at age 33 with three small children.
Douche has money and the children will still have two parents and will be provided for. It will probably be better for them to not see the drama and fighting of their parents trying to live together. And I'm also on Team John. Douche sounds as if she'd be exhausting to live with. Thank you for publishing what so many believe but are too afraid to admit in public. These women put their entire lives online, yet don't expect any criticism, only belly rubs.
Just desserts, I say. Personally, I think the breakup must have something to do with Heather's friend, Cami. To me, Heather seems obsessed with Cami and her rotten tast in clothes. Holy crap! I can't believe people are still reacting like this. Let it go, people! Ok, you have a hero worship condition and a problem with people who don't drink the same Kool-aid.
Merely expressing an opinion doesn't affect anyone, Rocky has a right to hers and so do you and they can differ, but getting all steamed up and insulting Rocky DOES affect you. Stress is not good for anyone. Calm down and let it go. I worry a little about the latest commenter. She shows signs of stalking Rocky. I love the crybabies bawwwwing about how mean and small and hateful everyone who took schadenfreude in this are.
So delicious, their tears of impotent rage as they shriek about their misguided ideas on karma and how much better they are than you for not ripping into Dooce, even as they rip into you because apparently that's hunky-dory. Such hypocrisy! Such laughable indignation! Don't ever stop, you magnificent toadies! Post a Comment. E-mail me!
You can e-mail me at rockycat24 yahoo. About Me rockygrace I was born in ; you do the math. See also: I'm too lazy to remember to update this thing regularly. I bought my first house in the summer of ; I share it with four cats and with the memories of The Runt and Little Girl, who both passed away in Rocky, the cat for whom this blog was named, passed away in ; I miss them all. I wish I lived somewhere where the winters weren't eight months long; other than that, life is good.
View my complete profile. It's free! Dooce is getting a divorce. And I'm glad. Sign o' the times Questions. I haz them. Wednesday, January 18, Dooce is getting a divorce.
Because evidently I'm a spiteful, jealous person. Look, I used to really like Dooce. She was one of the first bloggers I read regularly. And then she got famous.
And rich. And instead of blogging about her day-to-day life and the random shit we all deal with, she was blogging about flying to New York! And going to Africa with supermodels! And buying a new humongous house! And she was showing photos of her fabulous new furniture! And her incredibly, unbelievably expensive wallpaper! And I couldn't relate. It wasn't even interesting to me, because if I suddenly got famous and rich I would do things differently than she. Humongous houses and wallpaper so expensive it might as well be made out of hummingbird wings are just not what trips my trigger.
The same thing happened with Pioneer Woman. I used to read her every day, until she got famous and rich and became One Of Them. Instead of one of us And so when Dooce, who has blogged extensively about how her husband is the greatest man ever in the history of the world, and about how she loves him SO MUCH, and about how if your marriage hits a rough patch, you just need to go for counseling and everything will be ALL BETTER, God, didn't you already know that?
I was glad. In an effort to remain relevant, Heather published a blog post this week on burning shit down. Those friends had the audacity to be upset.
And that her current live-in love Pete Ashdown is also still married. Do I detect a pattern here? None of these alleged reasons makes this okay. It is just not okay. So why did Heather publish these things? There is speculation that she is trying to get out ahead of something. One of the betrayed women has a book coming out shortly.
