One needs to count their blessings especially when it means ‘someone is watching over you’ whether spiritually or physically; either way, count your blessings. I do it every day. So, I just wanted to thank every one for their kind wishes and prayers; from my clientele; My Family, Friends and of course the cyber soap world. It means a great deal. So, I am sure many have questions as to what happened…a little info. I have Multiple Sclerosis http://www.nationalmssociety.org/get-involved/programs-and-services/scholarship/criteria-and-information/index.aspx and sometimes, your brain doesn’t want to cooperate with nerves sending messages to your brain; so unlike a person who is intoxicated, we have no control over what happens next. In My case, I couldn’t swallow, see or comprehend fast enough-which sucks because if someone is asking you a question like, ‘Tracy, can you spell your name?’ Um, no ‘I’ can’t. A great medication called, Solu-Medrol enters my system for about five days through an I.V. and POOF! Goddess is feeling better; tired and fatigued but better. So I am getting stronger, resting and adjusting to a new, ‘gulp’ diet. I can’t swallow like I used to so there goes my love for Snickers! Argh! Rats I’d have a snickers and a V8 for lunch and I would be happy. Now I opt for the V8 with a splash of Grey Goose and I’m oh so, feeling much better.:)


So, now that we have skimmed over that, let’s discuss…’the show’. My goodness after all of the praising I was doing for Bell’s serial and the amazing storytelling…just not meant to last I guess we are back to my favorite phrase surmising Bell’s penchant for the ridiculous, ‘Out of the Blue Storytelling’ is BACK! SO beware…what to do viewers? Well I certainly wouldn’t ride the ‘Perfect Storm’ out we all saw what happened when the boat capsized, right? Instead of sticking it out, GO. No Seriously I said GO….find a nice new hobby or a show that will give you what you want. No sense on depriving GOOD writers the opportunity to ‘wow’ you with what they can give. Days must be doing something because they are in third place behind Bold and ahead of Bold in the key Demos. So Um While Dena Higley is not my favorite writer at all, Gary Tomlin deserves praise because well, after all, he is part of my ‘Brain Trust’ from Santa Barbara Days. So, Ken ahem, Bob, and Gary, feel free to steal those young viewers who cannot seem to find a ‘home’ at CBS. It is a ‘dog eat dog’ business, ya know.

I asked for an interview with this head writer, and this is the response I get; a double whammy of the plot driven stories plaguing the half hour show…as if the ‘bird’ flew in the face of kindness…Goddess doesn’t like her time being wasted, so guess what Moi did? LOL! If you simply cannot find a ‘Soap’ with enough luscious, rich, and vibrant suds decorating the lovely sunken, clawed bathtub you ‘create your own’….as in a novel, which is what I’ve done and to my surprise, three agencies are reviewing the manuscript. Needless to say I am over the moon. There’s something truly satisfying when someone admires your work no matter what profession it may be, it’s just an honor, period. I will keep you all posted on this.


In the meantime, pay attention to the ratings. 2.4? Muahahahahaha, Goddess says rubbing her hands vigorously with a sigh whispering, ‘I told……..you….’ Audience always has the last laugh no matter what. It doesn’t matter what is going on the boards{except dead silence of course lol} never betray their trust because they will, reward this industry with a swift kick of REALITY TV. It does not matter what’s written, if you have no ‘HOOK’ and any writer (Except Bell himself) will tell you, nobody is going to invest in what you sell. So audience, once again the victory goes to you…How does it feel knowing you have so much power without realizing it? Industry never wants you to figure it out….their jobs depend on you being clueless. Writers, it sucks, I know having to pen garbage especially {and I said this last night} when its like having sex with someone you simply are not ‘in love or lust with’ and the end result is always the same thing:…No coming to a sensational climax means…..a ‘pitiful’…performance…until Next time.:))))
