Ripple Rewind: Cheryl Ladd Strikes Again

I couldn't sleep this morning. I was not feeling well (which totally bites because it is a Friday) and decided to get up. I thought what I needed was to go for a run; get the juices flowing and clear my head. Well that didn't work and I barely lasted a mile. I was feeling pretty puny.

I decided to cut my run short and head home. I quietly turned on the television downstairs hoping to kill a little time until I could go upstairs and grab a shower and head out for the day. As I sat there in the darkness of the morning television glow, trying desperately not to wake the sleeping family which slumbered peacefully upstairs - it happened. Another Cheryl Ladd "Yes I am getting older commercial."

Like a young Greek man who's stumbled upon Medusa I was instantly turned to stone. My hand refused to respond to the command to shut the horror off. The commercial sucked me in and played with heart like a like a rubber ball attached to a wooden paddle. The cruelty of those marketers. The horrible reality of my once hot love affair with Cheryl Ladd reopened like a festering wound that refuses to heal.

If I felt bad before....I began to feel much worse now.

Relive the death of the Cheryl Ladd fantasy as shared in my BLOG post in January 2007. Click Here to read more.

There's not enough chicken soup in the world to squelch the pain that had almost been forgotten and healed. So sad. I am quite certain therapy may be needed this go around.

Ripple On and have a great weekend!
