Blurbal Perspective

"The Princess Diaries" star is rumored to be pregnant with her first child with husband Adam Shulman. A source reports that Hathaway is in her second trimester and is doing great. Hathaway and Shulman married in 2012, after 4 years of dating. Hathaway has expressed her desire to start a family in recent years. She expressed that she wanted to have her own kids naturally, and then adopt a few. My Two Cents It's about f*cking time these two had a kid, LOL! In all seriousness, I'm happy for them. Grats!

We all have our own definition of what Thanksgiving means to us. Universally, Thanksgiving is more than just a feast of good food. Some of us may go around the table and talk about what we are thankful for. This year, Thanksgiving has a special meaning for me. As you all know, I have dealt with a series of hardships this year. Over the summer, I hit rock bottom. My first relationship ever ended and I was left completely broken. I decided to seek help and my life has done a complete 180. This Thanksgiving, I am thankful for the hardships I endured this year. I'm thankful for the struggles I went through. Without these struggles, I wouldn't have made this change. I am also grateful for everyone who stood by me during my hard times. My friends, family, and even my readers. You have all been a tremendous support system. From the bottom of my heart, thank you, and I wish you and yours a magical Thanksgiving. What are YOU thankful for this Thanksgiving? Tell me in the comme...

Meeting the family of someone you are dating can be nerve-racking. Of course, the person you are dating will tell things to their family about you. This can either create the beginnings of a beautiful friendship, or make things super awkward. I have ample experience in the 'super awkward' category. In my previous relationship, he told his family that I liked to shop at Thrift Stores (still do). His mother said: "We need to class this girl up." At that time, I let it go because I didn't want to create drama (my health issues did enough of that). Now that I am out of that relationship, I'm looking back with a new pair of eyes. I'm realizing how disgusting it was for his family to judge me. I wasn't wearing raggy clothes. These were clean and pressed clothes that I happened to have bought at a Thrift Shop. I ended up being sucked into his family's world of high-end everything. Anything below TJ Maxx was unacceptable in their eyes. Money became a...

Social media is a part of our every day lives. Whether you use it for personal or professional reasons, it helps you get exposure. While it may be great professionally, it can be brutal personally. Sure, you can make some aspects of your life more private by separating your friends list into specific groups. However, drama can still erupt in your close friendship circle. If you're like me and are new to sobriety, if drama erupts, just walk away from Facebook and make a positive choice. Whether it is going to the gym, going for a walk, cleaning, cooking, playing with your kids, etc., choose something that brings out the best in you. Don't engage in the drama, don't erupt into anger, and don't go out and use. Make another choice. Stay off of Facebook. You will quickly find out that you have a lot of time in your life to make good choices. In no time, you won't even miss Facebook. This goes for any social media site. My story: On Friday, a rift between myself a...

Earlier this week, Joy Behar revealed that she asked her co-hosts what they'd rather be: anorexic or bulimic. Michelle Collins revealed that she would rather be bulimic, that way she can enjoy a meal. Candace Cameron Bure revealed in recent years that she struggled with an eating disorder. On the show, Bure said this: "Please know that while this is in jest, as someone who has dealt with eating disorders, I don't want to make light of anyone that has it. I can joke about it because I've been there." A massive sh*tstorm erupted on Twitter and many angry fans called 'The View' out on their intolerance of eating disorders." On Thursday, Behar apologized for the comments, stating that they were just kidding. While the ladies at The View acknowledged that eating disorders are serious, they still continued to make light of the situation. My Two Cents: These women have gone way too far this time. How DARE they make light of a very serious disea...

The ending of a relationship is always difficult, and with social media sites like Facebook, the grieving process may be prolonged. The folks over at Facebook want to make this process easier on you. They developed a feature that gives you the option to remove your ex from your newsfeed. After removing your ex from your newsfeed, you will also be given the option to remove yourself from their newsfeed. With this feature, neither one of you will be able to check up on one another. So, if you go on a date with a dude, your ex will have no knowledge of it. Facebook believes that this will improve the functionality of the site and make it a less dramatic place for all. My Two Cents: So, deleting and blocking your ex is too easy of a process for people? Shortly after my previous relationship ended, I deleted and blocked my ex. I did that after realizing how controlling the relationship was (I was in outpatient treatment therapy when I realized all of this). I didn't want to ...

According to the Associated Press, ex-Subway spokesman Jared Fogle was just sentenced to 15 years and 8 months in prison for child pornography and engaging in sex acts with minors. Fogle had pleaded guilty to one count each of engaging in sex acts with minors and receiving child pornography. Earlier this year, he admitted to paying for sex and receiving child pornography. In addition to his prison sentence, he agreed to pay $100,000 each to 14 of his victims. My Two Cents: While I wished the prison sentence was much longer, I'm glad that d*uchebag will be put away. Rot in hell, monster. By the way, dudes in prison don't take too kindly to child molesters. Good luck, pig. Readers: Do you think the sentence is fair? Do you think the sentence should be longer or shorter?
