On my show last night (YaddaYadda on BLAB TV), Becky, my most esteemed co-host, offered an interesting suggestion as an alternative strategy to further my way to my ultimate goal of becoming the next new host on "The View". (Wow, that was a mouthful!)
Anyway, she said I should apply for a reality show. "Apply for Wife Swap!", she said. Immediately, my brain started processing this outside the box idea. I generally love thinking outside the box (but recently I heard it has become passe). I do have a sort of sick interest in "Wife Swap". I know ultimately it has no redeeming qualities. I hate to admit it, but I do actually watch it.
The first image to spring into my head was that of the wife who kept farm animals inside her home and did not cook food. I can't remember if this was also the lady who stored tons of paper products in the shower or if that was someone else... Either way, I'm not real keen on subjecting myself to the craziness of others. Then again there was the wife who spent thousands of dollars a month on clothes, facials, manicures, etc...hummm, now that could be fun.
Let's see... is
Fear Factor still on? Forget it, I can't eat bugs.
Survivor? - Elizabeth Hasselbeck already checked that box.
Big Brother? - I'm not mean enough.
American Idol? - I'm too old. Okay, I can't sing either.
Project Runway? - Can't sew.
What Not to Wear? - Now, this has possibities. I'm sure that there have been times I have dressed inappropriately. Probably even more times that I can imagine. This might just be the ticket. Maybe they can make me View-worthy!
