Broke Down Oprah

I am not jealous of Oprah but I wonder why she is so successful and I am so unsuccessful. We are both black women who have struggled with our weight for years, we are educated, charming, witty, compassionate, look way better in make up and love to laugh. So why are we so different? My son is always telling me I should write he thinks I am way funnier and smarter than Oprah. He keeps telling me to do something other than lying around being broke and depressed, then he sighs and says "whatever."

So here I am all Brokedown and Starry Eyed, baring my tortured soul to the world. I hope we have some laughs out of all of this, but if not at least you will go away with a hugh DAMN! because saying that in that emphatic ebonic kind of way would be quite cathartic for you and a simple way for me to give back to my fellow man.
