"What to Expect" movie makes me want to punch the TV

Anybody else want to cause physical harm to the television whenever that commercial comes on?  As if I am not reminded enough about my IF this is just like salt in the wound.  What makes it even worse is that I can't stand Cameron Diaz and her weird face.

    I haven't seen them, but something interesting that I recently learned is that Elizabeth b.anks (who is in the movie) used a surrogate.

    I heard about that too.  Kudos to her for being honest about it.

    All I have to say is THANK YOU, THANK YOU THANK YOU.  I thought I was the only one who thought this way. 

     I debated about seeing it since Elizabeth Banks was in it and knowing her struggles, but I don't know.  I think I'd be the weirdo in the theater bawling her eyes out and throwing things at the screen.

    Yes!!!  And it's so unfortunate that Rodrigo Santoro is in the movie.  I want to do naughty, naughty things to him but can't bring myself to go see the movie even though I love me some good eye candy.
