The Cast

The Crap Housewife: President and founding member of the Crap Housewives Association, extremely qualified in the role, Career highlights include - Stapling as a form of hemming, completely cooking all moisture out of a potato, and dubious parenting behaviours such as paying son $10 to leave her alone. Also as you will note in posts, is never, ever, ever in the wrong. Currently played by Christina Hendricks (Well I dye my hair red and have big boobs, and like anyone in cyber space is gonna know the difference).

My First Husband: Also current and only husband to the Crap Housewife.Could be termed a lovable eccentric but that would be a fucking lie, he is an acerbic mental case who is hell bent on driving the Housewife insane. They have been together for 10 years and he is yet to stop talking.

Rain Man: The first born of the Housewife and the Husband, so named because when things go wrong he has the tendency to over-react in the same way Dustin Hoffman over-acted in the crap 80's film Rain Man. At present Rain Man is seven years old and appears to have no short-term memory and yet can monologue about computer games for upwards of 3 hrs.

The Nazgul: The 19 Month old daughter of the Housewife and the Husband, so named because she can screech like a Tolkien creature whenever she is displeased, the housewife quite often checks the Nazgul's back to see if she is indeed carrying a ring-wraith.


Together this mentally unbalanced group form the basis for a bizarre daily sitcom that no one really gets but kind of likes because watching them makes everyone feel better about themselves. There maybe a snap-shot of the Crap Housewife's day every week or so, or maybe just the bitter ramblings of someone who just doesn't understand when to shut up.
