Dr. Laura
Every time I hear about Dr. Laura I think about how much I hate her, but I just realized I never think about *why* I hate her.
I used to listen to her on the radio all the time, years and years ago. But then, the last year of my marriage, my husband kept throwing out to me that I needed to listen to Dr. Laura to save our marriage, because she would tell me that I should have sex with him every night, or three times a night, or whatever amount it was that was going to keep him happy.
And I used to think, "Why don't YOU listen do Dr. Laura? Have you EVER listened to Dr. Laura??? Because first of all, she's really big on the mother ALWAYS STAYING HOME WITH HER CHILDREN," which the EX was absolutely against, he wanted me to put the kids in day care and get a job, but also, I'm pretty frickin damn sure she wouldn't approve of his extramarital affairs. But if there's one thing my husband never had, it was sense or logic, so there was no arguing this point wiht him
So even though I knew Dr. Laura would probably knock him over the head with a VW Bus if she had the chance, she was still being thrown in my face every day as the person with all the answers. So somehow I just connect her in my mind with that last stupid year of marriage.
I don't know what this post means or why I'm putting it here. I guess I just find it interesting how I psychologically connect her as a part of the end of my marriage.
