   This is really eff’d up. I feel gross even reading about it. I feel like someday we’ll all be watching a THS about the Curse of the Housewife’s Franchise similar to the one they made about the lottery contestants. It just feels completely wrong. I am having a lot of feelings I guess.

   I’m having a lot of feelings, too.

   I’m hungry, because the vending machine here is empty.

   I’m horny, because the brunette in the cube next to me is indescribably gorgeous.

   I’m unfulifilled, because my job is kinda dull.

   I’m concerned, because I haven’t yet decided on a birthday present for my wife.

   Yup. I guess that’s about it.

   Just more of Taylor playing the victim, keeping her name in the press. Poor Taylor – not.

   Yet this story is all over the gossip sites. I certainly hope Kennedy hears about the suicide compassionately from Taylor first and not from her nanny because her nanny reads TMZ.

   And Taylor eradicated my sympathy for her completely by even making this (her not telling Kennedy) news.

   NWMTV – I had no clue that all this time you’ve been eyeing me from one cubicle over. If you think I’m a stunna, why haven’t you said anything?

   Even if you’re on TV, no one knows what really happens behind closed doors. I think Taylor and her lips and her photo shoots and parties are ridiculous, but that does not make her the cause of Russell’s death.

   She has admitted to being abused in the past, and often times women choose men, whether they realize it or not, who repeat the behavior. Sometimes I felt like she was trying to make her life seem perfect and hold it all together in order to cover up what was really going on.

   In any event, now is not the time to judge. Even if they were recently divorced, Russell was still the father of her child and someone she lived with intimately for years. I cannot help but feel sad for EVERYONE involved. Trust me, I’m the first one to pass snarky judgment, but I just think the whole thing is just sad sad sad. They will have to go to some really great lengths to make sure Kennedy grows up well-adjusted. Daddy issues are tough to deal with.

   fuck,
   he killed himself…LAST FUCKING NIGHT…GIVE ME A BREAK…it hasn’t even been 24 hrs.
   I am sure she is trying to talk to dr’s on the right way to tell her daughter what has happened.
   I am sure she is a fucking mess as well over this.
   She loved him..not sure why, but she did and they made a beautiful little girl together, I am sure she is grieving right now as well and feeling guilty as hell..though she shouldn’t be.
   It’s just sad all the way around.
   Have an ounce of empathy assholes.

    OK so I read all the time on these blogs but dont post, but I must. My first husband shot and killed himself, after a blackout drunk that left to much evidence on my face to avoid. He had many issues. Our children were one and five. I told my five year old right away that daddy had died, but not how. At that age, she didn’t really understand the concept of heaven. She kept asking if she could go there and see him. So I got creative and told her he was in the moon, because she understood that she could see it, but couldn’t get there.
    I did not tell her how her father died, until she was much older, almost 12. She didn’t want to know, and when she started asking questions, I was honest. I was terrified for many years though that some other child would throw it in her face during a childish arguement. Children overhear adults talking. So I made a concerted effort to never disparage him to them or in front of them, but I am honest about his faults.
    I will tell you this, other children who get forced to focus on a parents death repeatedly as in therapy, they use it as a crutch and bring out heavier emotional issues in teens. Let kids be kids, ask questions naturally, and work through what death is on their own time frame.
    Oh and another thing, coming from a truly horribly abusive mariage, I was happy to struggle on my own for many years to raise my children in an environment where they never had to witness that ever again. I never brought men in and out of their life, and only after nine years did I try to begin again myself. This I think helped shape how my kids grew up, knowing I worked hard to raise them and never put them in harms way for the sake of a man. They are beautiful, independant, take no crap, strong women, and in a way I have to thank him for bowing out and allowing us to have a life. It was horrible, but, sometimes it’s you or its me. I choose me.

    @ Elmstreet you beat to the punch, awesome tho!

    @Sardini I commented the same thing a few weeks ago when the allegations of abuse surfaced and totally agree with your statement about repeating the abuse cycle.

    @NVMTV- I am feeling upset you STILL don’t know what to get me for my birthday! It’s not like I haven’t been dropping hints.
