Wait what? Did I read that right?

Jesus, Michele, I'm sorry.
I'm hoping that was just a way to make a point about that stupid show.
Posted by: Matt | February 22, 2004 10:38 PM
What?? I'm with Statia, did I read that right? Are you ok? I'm sorry girl. :(
Posted by: kat | February 22, 2004 10:45 PM
Eh, I didn't really care for the first HB, especially when they reran it into the ground.
Wait, did I just read that line about SATC right? I really hope that was sarcasm... :(

WTF? M, please say you're kidding us. Please.

I felt the same way about "Just The Ten Of Us"... the crying when it was cancelled part, not the hating it after one episode part.
"I'll make you fun-sized!"

I was going to write something that included the phrase "immature little twerp", but that wouldn't help.
If you need anything, we're all here.
Posted by: Thlayli | February 22, 2004 11:14 PM
Um, sorry Michele. Hope you're well. I understand the song better now, I think.
Posted by: Dr_Funk | February 22, 2004 11:26 PM
Well, that just sucks.
Weird how things go on behind the blog that we never see and then suddenly, BAM!
Take care.

I watched one episode of Sex in the City and hated it. In fact, it made me cringe.
Thank God. I thought all this time it was just me.
Posted by: ilyka | February 22, 2004 11:55 PM
Jesus, next time I'll read the rest of it before I jump in and comment.
I'm so damn sorry.
Posted by: ilyka | February 22, 2004 11:57 PM
I'm sorry, Michele.
Posted by: MikeR | February 23, 2004 12:02 AM
As I was reading; first "huh", then "woah", and finally "shit."
Anything you need just ask.
Posted by: Kevin | February 23, 2004 12:04 AM
Well that sucks. Kudos for staying true to form tho- if yer going to announce something like that its best sandwiched between SITC and Harvey Birdman. Chin up.
Posted by: Ed | February 23, 2004 12:17 AM
Wishing you the best during this tough time.
Posted by: JAB | February 23, 2004 12:21 AM
I never liked that show. It made it seem as if all women from manhattan are snooty, man-chasing, idiots.
Posted by: Branille | February 23, 2004 12:21 AM
Sex in the City--I understood why some women loved it, and why others couldn't stand it.
I enjoyed the first season and then lost interest, but Rosemary has always loved it. To me it got predictable and trite. But then, most shows do for me after a while.
(Breakups suck. I sent ya an email.)

Ditto the "anything you need/want, just ask" comments.
Posted by: dorkafork | February 23, 2004 12:34 AM
You know we love you more than mere blog-words can express...
Posted by: robyn | February 23, 2004 12:40 AM
Sorry to hear about the breakup, kiddo. Condolences, and hang in there. ;{
Posted by: Ironbear | February 23, 2004 02:28 AM
Wow Michele. My heart goes out to you. As with Kevin, anything you need, anything at all.

Pulled the TV cable in 1996 so this is yet another show (like Who Wants To Be A Millionaire and Survivor) that I won't have to repent wasting time on.
More importantly, MUCH more importantly, did you try to get any kind of counseling before splitting? Splitting is a mistake. It doesn't help people eventually learn to get along... it helps them practice being apart. Didja do the "let me write down 20 things I adore about my spouse" exercise? Good people are VERY hard to find and it only gets more difficult as the best pickins get taken early. It's worth an overhaul if you can save the relationship... especially if there are kids involved. Kids don't heal from divorce. It's a rationalization that divorcing adults tell themselves. Unless there was an egregious breach in fidelity, most relationships ARE salvagable.
I come from 2 generations of divorce. My parents, all my aunts and uncles and ALL my grandparents were divorced at least once. I'm working toward my 18th anniversary with Mrs. Rantbloggger and we've been on the verge of the D word many times. And we've got a LOT going for us, including spectacular kids. We were even Newlywed Game winners. No kidding.
Damn damn damn.

Michelle, I've been divorced. I am so sorry. If If you need to talk, I am here.
Posted by: Gal | February 23, 2004 03:05 AM
I know what you're going through. If you ever need anything or want to talk, let me know. I was serious about the phone call thing; Nokia pays the bill, so if you want someone to rant/cry/talk to, just send me your number. I'll be thinking of you.
Posted by: Kymberlie R. McGuire | February 23, 2004 04:46 AM
I'm so sorry. You're a class act, Michele.
Posted by: Little Miss Attila | February 23, 2004 05:52 AM
I, too was a bit alarmed at the statement but decided that you were just making a point. Whatever happens, I hope it turns out for the best and I hope that you both find happiness. You are a brilliant wonderful person and you give much to so many. Please take care of yourself.
Posted by: Christine | February 23, 2004 07:06 AM
Sorry to hear that, Michelle.
Posted by: The Commissar | February 23, 2004 09:27 AM
Sorry, just now saw this.
It's not easy making that decision. I hope things work out for you - I'm so sorry to hear about that.
I've been there before, too, only ours didn't survive. I hope you fare better. hugs
Posted by: cyberangel | February 23, 2004 11:09 AM
Gee, Michele, I'm so sorry. I remember you saying that you're not all that religious, but I lean that way and I'll light a candle for you this week.
You're a great lady, and you're in our thoughts.

Funny how alleged art looks superfluous when compared to real life.
Sorry to hear this news, Michelle.
Posted by: Jeff | February 23, 2004 12:00 PM
woah. Sorry to hear that Michele, as folks have said - if you need anything, feel free.
I think I had to read this post eight times before I was sure what I read. Then read the comments.
Keep your head up, and remember that your own personal really big support group of people you've never met are here for ya!
Posted by: djspicerack | February 23, 2004 01:59 PM
My goodness Michele, I'm so sorry. Anything I can do, DO NOT hesitate to ask.
Posted by: Darren | February 23, 2004 03:57 PM
I'm so sorry to hear that...hang in there.
Posted by: Dave in Texas | February 23, 2004 08:07 PM
Aw shit, Michele.
Anything you need, Babe, just ask.
Posted by: feste | February 23, 2004 08:49 PM
You have just made a new reader. You like Adult Swim, I will now read your blog.
Posted by: Octoberball | February 23, 2004 11:12 PM
You know all your readers and admirers are here for you.
Posted by: Dave | February 24, 2004 11:49 AM
whoa. What a bomb to lay on.
I'm sorry. Here's to hoping all goes well, whichever way things work out.
Like someone said earlier, I know you're not religous, so I'll say a prayer for you.
God Bless You.
