formerly rosie *the unedited rantings of a fat 43 year old menopausal ex -talk show host * -married mother of four- read at your own risk - my spelling sux (add * ocd * adhd * lmnop * suv * dvd * y not me)
...otherwise known as the blog of celebrity thespian, lesbian, comedienne and talk show host Rosie O'Donnell, and it's surprisingly personal and intimate for an honest-to-gosh real live famous person blog. It's also pretty fascinating.
  • strangly addictive.
  • In the interest of balanced reporting, I feel I should add that the writing is unbearably awful. It's like grading homework papers in a middle school 'Creative Writing' class.
  • what...........stray.......said...... /spaces out
  • ten minutes in the woman behind me started singng perfect pitch i wanted to turn and look at her but was afraid she would stop then i realized there are speakers in the seats LOL
  • Uh, yeah.
  • reminsicent of this
  • The comments can be fairly entertaining too. Hundreds of people trying to get her to visit their blogs, leaving comments in her same quasi-poetic style, and acting like they know her personally.
  • Here's another neat celebrity blog, David Byrne of The Talking Heads
  • Ah, but did they diss my university a la Matt Good? I thought not.
  • Menopausal at 43? Isn't that a bit young?
  • fuyu: not necessarily "a bit young." If one is really lucky, it can start at about that age and last for a number of years. (Hot flashes aren't much fun, but I was really fond of my semi-conviction that I could use my copper-feathered wings to protect my kid from all the bad stuff out there. Just had to spread them around her each night, just before I went to sleep.)
