I'm her Sharon :)

[DiannaRose]

So this morning my wife, who's going through some self-exploration and life issues (most unrelated to my CDing), was feeling a little anxious this morning as she was waking up. I'm her rock, remember, so I'm helping settle her head and calm her down before she starts her day. Trying to keep the anxiety from rearing it's head.

"You're my Sharon", she says out of the blue. I have no idea what she's talking about, same as you.

"Yeah, you're my Sharon," she says. "I'm your f***ed-up Ozzy, you're my stable Sharon."

Well, I thought it was funny. :)

Perhaps I'll change my name to Sharon. LOL

LOL - I wonder if she considered what she was saying, or if it just came out like that.

Hi Diane...i gotta say that was pretty cool of her...im happy for your love you guys share!!:)

Sounds like a great compliment.

Sharon was always there for Ozzy even in his most drug filled years. When he was tossed from Black Sabbath (worst move they ever made) she was there to keep him going. She got him clean and straight again and now he's back making great music and not dead as he would have been.

Your wife knows her music it seems...and her rocks...

Well the Osbournes were on Ellen yesterday, and my wife was telling me all about it.

Sharon Osborne is a fabulous woman that understands love is tried and true through thick and thin.

I think this is a wonderful compliment. Every good marriage needs each one of us to play Sharon's role every now and then.

You made me feel warm and fuzzy in the middle of a blizzard. Thanks hon. :hugs:

Sharon is absolutely Ozzy's rock. They have been together longer than any other celeb couple I can think of and have gone through more bad things than we can all put together. She is also his manager and has been since her father convinced him to leave Sabbath..She is a very shrewd business lady and even re-recorded songs from his first two solo albums so they wouldn't have to pay royalties to the bassist and drummer.
I miss their show even if it was bad it was still funny.

I think we all have a little Sharon in us.

I'm sure my wife caught the Osbournes on Ellen (she watches every day--we both love Ellen), and because it was so fresh in her mind was comparing me to Sharon in terms of stability and rockiness (so to speak).

Part of her problem with my CDing is that she sees me as different than I was--in other words, she worries that I can no longer be her rock, because I've changed (in her eyes). It's true that she's seeing parts of me she never saw before--because I need to stretch my wings a little, after 40 years of burying and ignoring and denying and hiding what I am and what I need.

I stretched, and her rock did move. It threw her off balance.

Also, since I came out, she has refused to allow any signs of feminility in me, or even merely associations with anything female, so the fact that she A) still sees the rock in me and B) actually compared me to one of her female idols, both make me happy. Small progress, but still progress.

Yes, as many of you have pointed out, Sharon Osbourne is absolutely an amazing human being, so I take my wife's comparison of me to her as a great compliment.

I didn't realize that, but what I meant more was that Dianna's wife was likening her to a GG. I meant I wonder if she realized she was doing that.

was it..per chance..a Blizzard of Oz? \m/(>.<)\m/

lol, sry, couldn't resist.

Sharrrrrrrrrrrroooooooooooon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't think she was consciously comparing me to a GG--in fact, if I were to comment on it she'd be horrified at herself, I think--but the fact that even she even unconsciously allowed herself to do it was very encouraging to me. :)
