A Reader Almost Becomes A Real Housewife

Two weeks ago a long time reader from this site wrote on her own site about how she almost became a Real Housewife from Orange County. Judging by what she wrote on her site, I think the world has missed out on something that would have been a lot of fun. Here is a sample of what she wrote, and you can read the rest here. 

"Just before Thanksgiving I spoke with the casting team in charge of Real Housewives of Orange County. An agent called me at the suggestion of a friend. I went through a few interviews and sent in the requested photo proof I have a family, actually live in a home, drive a car, and I am a woman. They were moving quickly to hire two new women, they explained. But I never heard back. My sister said it was probably because they had another kind of person in mind. My husband said it was because I don’t have enough plastic in my face. I would have asked my therapist, but I haven’t seen her in months. To be honest I’d like to think I would have brought some sass.

MY BIO: Kate is a 36-year-old mother of three children under the age of 4. She’s a media consultant for lawyers by day and a frustrated comedy writer covering pop culture by night. Unlike some of the previous husbands who say they are entrepreneurs (cough Bellino) Kate’s actually is one. For the last two years his software company has been listed on Forbes list of America’s Most Promising Companies. In their non-existent free time they take turns sleep training their new baby, eating take-out, and trying to finish House of Cards from Netflix. Her inner circle includes her sister who thinks she should spend more money on facials, her friends who also have kids, and the guy who baby proofed her house who believes they are spiritual soul mates."
