My 1:54 of fame (er, shame)

A few weeks ago, I filmed a spot for Angie's List about my broken dishwasher. My sister works in media relations there and asked me to help them out by telling my dishwasher story for a video news release. They sent it to news stations across the country to use for their "home" segments.

My sister Angie -- not THE Angie -- sent me the link today from a Birmingham, Alabama television station. Click here to see me live and in person. (Click on the video in the upper right hand corner of the page.) By the way, this is NOT my house. It's way too hip and clean to be my house. We filmed at the home of one the Angie's List PR people.

I watched it and immediately thought, "Oh my gawd! I look like a pumpkin!" I'm pretty sure this is going to be the video that will clinch my spot as a contestant on The Biggest Loser.
