I was going to write you all a long letter thanking you for your reads and apologizing for not being able to stomach Living Lohan any longer. Then I saw that I made the opening clip!!! There I am chasing Slohan down the street spraying shaving cream in her hair and screaming "STOP TRYING TO BE LIKE LINDSAY! ARE YOU GONNA GO TO REHAB NOW?!?" Wait, I don't remember her wearing a plastic fire helmet that day, nor do I remember that gang of kids. Darn. Different day. And now I'm hooked.
Got me again, Nanahan!
We start with Mama Dina McVana Lohan being very normal. Do snooty tooty stars pour themselves a glass of milk? No. Normal every day moms do. She has to make sure her bones are strong enough to walk the streets pimping her kids. Slohan's short bus comes to a stop outside the house and Ali comes in without saying hi, going straight to her room and slamming the door. McVana, ever the sensitive mom, comes bounding up the steps after her yelling "Slo? Slo? Slohan? Slo? Slo? Slo? Slo? Slo?" Me thinks she's ignoring you, lady. She lets herself into the bedroom and asks Ali what's wrong. "NOTHIIIING---UH!"
McVana sits on the edge of the bed and gives Slo a nice long talk about expressing your emotions and working out your spiritual muscles as much as your physical ones. Kidding! She shouts about having no reason to be yelled at and then storms out, slamming the door behind her. There should be a Mother of the Year Ball every night.
Dina goes downstairs to get her mind off being dissed and on her very busy self googling "work day". If that spoiler clip hadn't opened the show, my first guess would be that Slo got her first girl time. I'd be worried to get my first period in that house too. Dina would see it as a looming expiration date and start sending Cody to tap class. Ali's school calls and tells McVana that some mean girls were abusing Slohan all day. Dina smiles big. Mean Girls was a Blohan blockbuster! HOLLA! She catches the worried, semi-judgmental look on Assistant Alexis' face and gets back to the conversation at hand. "Were they making fun of her nose? I'm trying to get it fixed tell them to get off our ASSES!!"
She tells the school lady that she is going to keep Ali home for a day or two until they can resolve the Mean Girls' (HOLLA!) situation. I don't know what that's going to do. You can't rebirth and re-raise a child in a couple of days, which means that the girls will still have plenty to make fun of. She's screwed. Dina makes a joke that she's gonna call Tina Fey about writing Mean Girls 2 for Slohan to star in, as if she hasn't been making that call every day since 2004.
Sorry, but she's still too old. Is Nanahan available?
Dina tells us that the family is constantly getting hang up calls and random AIMs and texts that she only returns if they're from 20 year old males. And she'll only date them if they have some ambition. She'll sleep with them if they work ou....wait. Where were we? Oh yeah. The torture of Slohan. Not only do they get the calls and txts, McVana says, when Ali's at school the other kids serenade her with Wineho's "Rehab". She rolls her eyes and then adds "Oh who am I kidding? I love that song!"
Alexis says that sure the kids taunt Slo, but "look where she's going!" Alexis never speaks her disapproval of Dina's rearing aloud, but I took this statement to mean "taunting is the least of it. She's going to an early grave if she continues on this sick path". McVana, of course, takes it as "the nameplate on Scarlett Johansson's dressing room door is about to be changed, f those bitches." I have to admit that I kind of hope Slohan does make it big, if only to buy her mother extensions that match the rest of her hair. I think Lindsay's just written the poor woman off.
These extensions are a symbol of struggle, people!

You know, once my mother went to a party and there was an electrical fire while she was out. The next day, no fire marshall showed up to give us a fire safety drill but a nice lady from Child Protective Services came by and offered me "a better mother"

Hey flip! It's your true fan . . . . I didn't realize you were capping this, so I'ma gonna check 'em out . . . you know I miss your snarky charm, and this certainly seems to draw forth the venom from you--but for reals . . . what was that song like??? I can't always tell . . . call me crazy. . . was it really a song from her friends journal, and was it caterwauling or what?! Insipid, enquiring minds like mine want to know . . .

fayellis1, did you take the better mom? i say go with the gamble. and juddsy, the song was ok. something about "how far is your heaven?" i assume she wrote that as she cried her eyes out watching american idol the year "inside your heaven" came out so i kinda hated it, but i could be totally wrong. her son died so i just glossed over it. but "how far is your heaven"? with slohan singing it, heaven is never close enough. kill me now!
xo

you can hear the lameass song in part 3 of episode 3. i found it on youtube. it's pretty damn awful, and i'm sure it killed the "family friend" hearing her heart-wrenching poetry about her dead daughter being strangled to death by a snotty little wannabe. no wonder she was in tears!

FLIPIT..HELLZ YEAH! I went from sleeping on the bottom bunk on top of an air mattress (w/my sister) to sleeping on a sleeper sofa in the basement but at least I had my own room. Even though new mom would call me "extra cash" to her friends, there was never an electrical fire at her house. O well, off to therapy. I

Thanks for the info flip and escape. I must say, Fayellis, "extra cash" is an awesome nickname, and if you ever write a novel, let me know . . . I'd be rapt!!!
Off to youtube--my therapy ain't till the weekend . . .
