You won’t believe who’s to blame

Sometimes people will ask, “What’s the one thing you’d like to change about your personality?” I don’t know if that’s true or not, but it sounds like the kind of dumb new-age shit that would be true, so let’s pretend it is. If the answer is just some thinly disguised love-letter to themselves (“I work too hard”, “I get taken advantage of because my natural instinct is to help people”) you know that person is gonna be a complete pain in the ass, because really what they’re telling you is that their only problem is that they’re too wonderful.

Hey guess what Kate Gosselin blames for the collapse of her marriage, according to this weeks People magazine cover story.

“I was operating under the belief that marriage is forever,” she tells the mag. “So I exhausted myself trying to do everything and make everything be okay, when maybe I just couldn’t.”
She says she doesn’t feel hate, though, “I don’t hate Jon. He’s lost, he’s confused. I don’t look at him 100 percent of the time with horrible anger and animosity.”

Oohh, not 100 percent of the time, huh? I guess I had Kate all wrong. Here I was, thinking she was some black-hearted monster, but then it turns out she sometimes ratchets down her horrible anger and animosity. I feel like quite the fool right now, let me tell you.
