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

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.
Pursing Domestic Infant Adoption through a local agency. In the meantime, our dog is our baby. Bumping from Portland, Oregon.

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.
