Seriously? OMG! WTF?

In 1992, people were flocking to the theaters to see A League of Their Own, a biopic about the Rockford Peaches, a female baseball team during World War II.

Over the weekend, fans were flocking to see Rosie O’Donnell, Geena Davis, Lori Petty, Bitty Schram, Megan Cavanagh, Tracy Reiner, Anne Ramsay, Freddie Simpson, Patti Pelton, Connie Pounds-Taylor, and Kelli Simpkins at Chicago’s Donald Stephens Convention Center for the Chicago Sports Spectacular.

Seeing them together is giving me tears of joy. Because, as we all know, there are no tears in baseball.

It has been a rough year for Rosie O’Donnell, she split with her second wife, quit her job at The View and today she announced that her 17 year old daughter Chelsea has been missing for a week.
She posted the below statement on her blog:

Rosie O’Donnell’s 17 year old daughter, Chelsea O’Donnell was reported missing. Nyack, New York police authorities have been looking for her in the Rockland County area since Sunday, August 16. She was last seen Tuesday, August 11. She was wearing a black sweatshirt hoodie, dark ripped blue jeans, women’s grey converse sneakers and a black backpack. Chelsea has a large tattoo on her right side of a dream catcher with the word ‘Breathe.’ She left home with her 6 month old therapy dog named Bear. The dog is a 9 lbs brown and black terrier. Chelsea stopped taking her medicine and is in need of medical attention. Any information please contact authorities at 845-358-0206 or 911.

If you see the runaway and/or her dog please call the numbers above. Sadly, there is a lot of public transportation in the Nyack area and she can be anywhere by now. Hopefully, she stayed close to home and will be sleeping her own bed soon and back on the medication she needs.

UPDATE: Rosie just Tweeted this great news, “chelsea has been found and is safe in police custody – thank u all for the help and light #missingchildren.”

Before Rosie O’Donnell had her own talk show, she appeared on the game show Cross Wits. She looks the same now as she did when she was 24 in that 1986 episode.

my wife michelle
was diagnosed with desmoid tumors in june
a mysterious rare – too often fatal disease
that affects 3 in a million people

we were to wed 10 days ago
but her illness forced us to postpone the wedding
luckily –
as i was in ICU that day

when it rains …
things grow
like love and flowers
humans too

so on we go
we married in private
before her surgery
just the 2 of us

when we r both well enough
will have the wedding of r dreams
surrounded by those we cherish
thankful for the love and support
so many have given us
during these trying times

including all of u
stranger-friends
connected thru invisible strands
of wi fi

Hopefully they both will be well enough to have the wedding party sooner rather than later. Two close calls to death makes you appreciate what you have even more and it appears they are really appreciating what they have together.

my heart attack

August 20, 2012
its a semi-sunny monday
the light bouncing off the flat hudson
mish is sitting next to me
i am happy to be alive

last week i had a heart attack

here is what happened
on tuesday morning
while walking in a parking lot in nyack
i heard a loud commanding voice

“can u help me”

more of a demand than request
a challenge – a plea
i turned and saw an enormous woman
struggling to get out of her car

she was stuck

“can u help me? she asked again
as i walked toward her
“oh u r rosie odonnell”
yes i am

the ghost of christmas future
me – if i did not wake
there r no accidents i thought
as i braced myself and lifted her

it was not easy
but together we did it
she was up and on her way
with gratitude

a few hours later my body hurt
i had an ache in my chest
both my arms were sore
everything felt bruised

muscular – i thought
strained or pulled tissue
i went about my day
the pain persisted

i became nauseous
my skin was clammy
i was very very hot
i threw up

maybe this is a heart attack
i googled womens heart attack symptoms
i had many of them
but really? – i thought – naaaa

i took some bayer aspirin
thank god
saved by a tv commercial
literally

i did not call 911
50% of women having heart attacks never call 911
200,000 women die of heart attacks
every year in the US

by some miracle i was not one of them
the next day i went to a cardiologist
the dr did an EKG and sent me to the hospital
where a stent was put in

my LAD was 99% blocked
they call this type of heart attack
the Widow maker
i am lucky to be here

know the symptoms ladies
listen to the voice inside
the one we all so easily ignore
CALL 911

save urself

xxx
