Like I’m not going to post that Sara Benicasa was here? In case you missed her Princess of America comment? To me? Woop woop? This is way cooler than had the real Sarah shown up, way less scary. Not like she would. Foul-mouthed Godless old bitch that I am. I don’t believe in Beatles, (I really do, that’s just a great line) I don’t believe in speaking in tongues. Nor laying of hands, nor the Devil. I guess that pretty much covers it.

So in case you fail to pore over my comment lists, and I know you do, she said

We aren’t doing much together (other than shopping at Bed Bath and Beyond) at the moment because Diana “Dina Heath” Saez is 35 weeks pregnant with twins! True story!

Which means Cousin Dina can’t be much good as a Pilates, nail or La Leche coach at the moment … so I can’t see Sarah having much use for her. I love those woman in part because no beans are made, Dina’s place in all eternity is coach, assistant, general helper to Miss Alaska Runner Up. It’s nice to see the servant class still exists in America. Even if the servants do grumble and weep a bit, but if you are of a higher class, like Miss Sarah, hell, dig those nails in. You can (apparently) say any damn thing you want. So Dina occasionally sobs, but quietly, and need I add, off-camera.

There is much to be learned from observing these two. You are the camera, yes, but with more powers of interpretation we hope. While the story of practically everything, the hopes and dreams of the women of America (okay, of a certain class) unfolds via camera shots, camera time, when the shot is shared with Dina (seldom) how it is shared (seldom graciously.) (Unless Sarah momentarily forgets her place and the two of them are having fun.) It isn’t easy being Princess of America, in the running for Queen. The stress shows, Sarah has little meltdowns, but she always recovers  the beauty queen, all-my-teeth smile. This ain’t Lucy and Ethel for Christ’ sake, this is important. This is the President of the United States! Okay, Vice-President. Like for now.

Ah, I enjoyed them. So much so, I expect I’ll deconstruct them again.

Meanwhile, thanks for stopping by, Sara, I am like sooo flattered, omg, and Miss Dina Heath—Diana, for heaven’s sake don’t exert yourself! Keep that cargo on board!

Til it’s ready to be, um, unloaded at the curb. Metaphorically speaking. Use the white zone ONLY!
