I’ve had it. Now my brother, FavoriteChild, has gone and stepped over the line.
Where there was hope I might someday be my Mother’s favorite, now there is only despair. You see, my brother has gone and done the ultimate Make Mom Proud moment.
He was a guest on Oprah. And, not because he is the victim of tragedy, or a drug addict, or the secret father of John Edwards’ love child. Noooo, he’s above thaaaat.
He was on there as a medical professional wanting to help people. Yes, Dr. Phil, Dr. Oz, and now Dr. FavoriteChild. Gag.
I’m sure our Mother is gushing with pride. Who can blame her. But, I’m not proud. I’m so not proud that I spent the entire evening last night trying to get a clip of FavoriteChild’s appearance off of our DVR so that I could put it on here and show my friends. I couldn’t get it off the DVR so I resorted to just video taping it, thus the quality is poor, but you can still see him here: HTTP://WWW.VIMEO.COM/6826540. It’s only a few minutes, and definitely worth checking out.
I’m so not proud that I sent emails out to all my friends about him. And, I’m definitely not proud that he appeared on Oprah, but am even more so not proud, really not proud, that he is actually there to help those people who cannot help themselves, and CHANGE THEIR LIVES.
Not proud at all. And, Mom shouldn’t be either. Mom, Oprah, this guy? Really?
I give up.

Andi!!! Thank you SO MUCH for posting this video! Imagine my dismay when I (after staying up waaaay past my bed-time to watch the late night re-run of Oprah) closed my eyes JUST for a moment during a comercial to re-open them over an hour later! I was SO sad that I stayed on the couch all night ~ hoping that the Oprah show would air just one more time during the wee hours of the morning. It did not. You made my day!
