Why The Leader and I are on a "break"

Yes, I am growing weary of Oprah. I hate to admit it, but it's true. The magic is fading for me. It's been like this for a while now. I stopped reading her magazines cover to cover as soon as they arrived, I started just skimming them for the "good parts". I would often find myself reading the "Letters from our Readers" section and someone would rave about an article and I would realize that I had never read it. There was the occasional useful tip or "aha" nugget, but they were few and far between. I've even debated canceling my subscription. But still, this is OPRAH we are talking about, I thought maybe it was just the magazine. I thought maybe we were just in a slump.
However, I am starting to see that she is just too overexposed. Oprah book club, O Magazine, the 20th Anniversary DVD, The Color Purple on Broadway, the show, the extra show on Oxygen, the website, and now the XM Station, not to mention all of her "Favorite Things" product endorsements. I think she is in too many places and it's wearing pretty thin.
Then the new season started. I've just been underwhelmed so far. She had Janet Jackson on and she was STILL talking about the stupid "wardrobe malfunction" blah blah blah. The thing that really bugs me though is the Road Trip with Gayle. Oprah looks like she would be an absolute terror to be on a road trip with and that is something that I just can't abide. She hasn't pumped her own gas since 1983. 1983 people! She also hadn't been to Dairy Queen since then either- and when she did go to Dairy Queen, she got a plain vanilla cone. You don't get a plain vanilla cone on a road trip! You get something decadent - like a Butterfinger shake (which is what Gayle got). Especially if you haven't been to DQ in over 20 years!
She doesn't let Gayle sing in the car, she didn't want to play "Would you rather?", she was tired of being in the car after only 4 hours. 4. hours. I seriously am starting to think that Gayle should be nominated for sainthood if she makes it out of that car alive. Oprah just looks like such a diva. And that is just watching what she is letting them show on TV- my mind boggles at all the footage that they must have cut because it made her look bad. (I realize that some of you may be thinking you knew that Oprah was a diva all along, but I totally fell for her friendly, down to earth facade and I thought that she might actually be like she appeared to be.) The soft focus has been rubbed from my eyes and I now realize that even if Oprah were to ever invite me to her house in Hawaii, she wouldn't actually be much fun to be around.
