Is it too much to ask for reliability or accountability from someone? I'm well aware that I haven't always been the most flexible person or even the easiest person to get along with, but some common decency and sticking to your word would be appreciated. Maybe I'm under-reacting. I know I've more than over-reacted on multiple occasions. And having this pointed out to me means that I'm well aware of the problem, and thus avoid it. But where is that line that says, "Please, feel free to over-react. Its allowed." I'm tired of letting people walk all over me. What happened to the person who used to be able to walk all over everyone else? That's not me anymore. And now I read this and think that the neurons are firing in the wrong directions in my brain and that if it weren't for my health, I'd really have nothing in this world.

And what's up with Martha? It's terrible. I loved the old Martha show, all the little Martha shows on HGTV and FoodTv. I think maybe the whole live audience is the problem. I want to see Martha making souffles and duck confit and how to fashion a better ribbon, notions, and craft suplly organizer out of an old wardrobe. I don't want to see her making baked apples in the microwave or watch her teach a Desperate Housewife how to scramble eggs. Those are things I learned to do at the age of 8, and anyone in the target demographic hopefully learned to do them before they could drive a car. There's a reason she was called a Domestic Diva: she used to show us how to do the impossible with an impossible ease in a spotless, starched shirt in an immaculately clean kitchen or some greenhouse she built herself. She didn't earn that title by doing the mundane; she earned it by doing the magnificent. And I liked it when she got snide little comments in when her celebrity guests weren't quite performing up to her standards. Plus, not pushing the culinary bar means that we can't do shots every time Martha tastes the dish to see just how delicious it is.
