I have an uncle who went through a mid-life crisis, divorced his wife to marry a wacky younger lady. It lasted a couple of years. She cleaned him out then left.

He just kind of floated aimlessly for a few years and then just showed up at his old house. That was 20 some years ago. They've been together ever since, but they never remarried.

Interesting line, you find it incredibly "awkward" to think of him as anything but your husband.

As long as your together he basically still is. It's tough to get your mine to let that go when the other person is with someone else.

I'm facing a major fear tomorrow....I'm going to a casting call for The Biggest Loser. It's about an hour from here. One of my friends originally was going to go with me but she was called out of town at the last minute so I'm on my own. SCARY! I don't like going places outside of my bubble on my own so this is going to take some courage on my part.

I had to have pictures to take with me to put with my application. I HATE having my picture taken in any situation so that was torture. Gabe took them for me this morning in our living room. I hope they are ok.

Please, if you are a praying person, please pray for me. This would be such a literal life saver if I could get on that show. Honestly, the motivation for being on the show as nothing to do with the prize for first place. It has everything to do with wanting to live. I know what is going to happen to me otherwise.

So nervous!

It was a good experience. I met several nice people in line and we had fun chatting. It was hot hot hot yesterday and the line is outside so i'm now sunburned in a couple of spots where I kept sweating off my sunscreen. I'd reapply and off it would go. UGH. Couple of blisters on my feet too!

There were so many people there that they didn't get to see everyone in the 8 hours they had. I got there at 8:30a and they opened the doors to start the processing at 10a. I finally made it out of the sun at 1p and had my group interview at 4p. They sit you at a table with 9 other people and the casting director is in the middle. They ask you one question, same question to everyone, and you have about 30 seconds to make an impression on them with your answer. The question was awful....What is your greatest accomplishment? UGH!

They had nearly finished the call backs as of 2am this morning. They posted that they had a few more to do and would advise when they were completed so we could all stop sitting on pins and needles. They only take 30 from each of the casting calls. Considering there were 1000 there, my odds frankly stink. I knew that going in though so no big deal.

I am just so proud of you! Last night I thought I would at least be in the area when s16 got off work. I had to runto the store but when I was done he wasn't finished yet. So I went over to Barnes snd Noble and looked around. They had a collection of inspirational magnets. There was one by Eleanor Roosevelt saying to do one thing you are afraid of every day. I thought of you.

Wether you get on the show or not, you faced a big fear. That is a big step for you. The more often you do that, the more confident you will become. Good luck hon.

Hi Mish. Sorry to hear you've been having a lot of drama while I was gone.

Good for you on auditioning for the show!
