Thursday is International Women Day. So Watch Women on TV.

If you missed the show on Wednesday, Mar 3: They were featuring the best of “View Tube,” including backstage antics and celebrity exit interviews. Lisa Kudrow of “Who Do You Think You Are”  joined in.  Watch the episode online, if your DVR messed up like mine.

But don't miss these upcoming episodes:

•      Thursday, Mar 4: Celebrity guest co-host Valerie Bertinelli, former Oscar nominee Abigail Breslin from Broadway’s “The Miracle Worker,” Mia Wasikowska from Disney’s “Alice in Wonderland,” and a musical performance from Broadway’s “Fela” will be featured on this jam-packed episode.

•      Friday, Mar 5: The View’s “Road to the Oscars” episode welcomes former Oscar nominee Don Cheadle and Wesley Snipes and “Fashion Friday” celebrates “The History of Oscar Fashions” with a two-part look back at some of the most memorable – and perhaps forgettable – Oscar hits and misses, with host and celebrity stylist Robert Verdi. Hosts of “At the Movies” Michael Phillips and Tony Scott will also be on set to unveil their 2010 Oscar predictions.

And we'll see you next week.

A mother's Guilt x8, or wait is that x14?

Some people- men- might say being a mother is a blessing. That it is a joy.
On some occasions I might agree.
But most times, motherhood is one big guilt trip.
You feel guilty for not being there, for being there and not doing more, for not being able to understand a cry, a moan, a whine. For embarrassing them, for feeding them too much or too little, for not providing for them, for providing too much for them. For good advice you gave and they didn't take, for bad advice you gave that they took, for wearing elastic waist paints-- once. For being cool. For not being cool. For asking about- that thing. For not asking about- that thing. For giving them your genes, or not. For continuing to mother them when they are so obviously too old for that.
sigh. Is it any wonder I stopped at two?
As if I didn't have enough guilt already. I grew up Catholic.

But OCTOMOM?
 woah.
 you crazy.
