WARNING: Multiple Rants

I'm frustrated with a couple things...

1. My dad is dating. He has been for some time and he's on his second lady friend right now. She's from Arizona and they've been dating for 4ish months now. She was just up here for the past weekend for the second time, but I still haven't met her. I don't know if I want to. I HATE HATE HATE that he's dating! I already get so little time with him and now this chick is taking more of it. Yes, I want him to be happy and yes, my mom told me he's probably remarry, and yes, it's been over 2 years BUT I AM A SELFISH/SPOILED BRAT and I don't want him to! I don't want a step-mother, I don't want things to change anymore in my life. I want our holidays and traditions to stay the same. I want the house I grew up in to stay the same! And honestly, I'm jealous of the attention she gets and that my dad has a more active social life than I do. BAH HUMBUG!!!!!

2. John & Kate + 8...I'm SOOO disappointed with them, TLC, and the media/tabloids. I haven't watched the show since the season started because I don't have cable anymore and because it's just so over-publicized now. I read online a bit ago what this "big announcement" episode was about and I guess they're getting divorced. I have SEVERAL issues with this. 1. Less than a year ago they did 2 whole episodes where they renewed their vows and made it a point to say divorce is not an option for them. That's one of the reasons they renewed their vows they said, to let their children know they were serious. What a load of CRAP!!!! 2. In the article I read, Kate said that things had been tough for 7-8 months. Yeah, you know what?! Life is HARD! Suck it up!!! Have you tried counseling? Have you tried turning the f-ing cameras off and concentrating on your FAMILY?? I'm so livid at them!!! Granted, I don't know the "real" story, only the media produced one, but still. Ugh...I'm just disgusted!!!

I know what you mean about your dad. My mom was single for 12 years, then met a guy and married him in 6 months, and suddenly I had to compete with a step-dad, and 4 step-siblings, and a step nephew. It was really rough, but it got better.

And J&K? I guess in the divorce papers they stated that they had been living apart for 2 years. Totally scripted... Ugh! I don't watch on principle, but it's hard to NOT know these days.
