    Hello. I'm Rose Carboni. No! Ritz! Rose Ritz! That's it. Rose Ritz. Yes.

    Carboni
    was my husband's name. But he's dead. Whoops! Actually, he's not really dead,
    we're divorced. I just prefer to think of him as dead, cheers me right up.

    Oh my gosh, did I just do that?! Here I am, making my very first dating video --
    that's right, this is the very first dating video of Rose Ritz! -- and I'm already
    telling all you potential -- Mr. Video Men-Of-My-Dreams out there-telling all you
    Video Men that I'm divorced. Good move, Rosie!

    But yes, I'm divorced. I love you forever -- not! Divorced, divorced, divorced! But
    actually, can we not even talk about my divorce. My divorce was like -- like open
    heart surgery without anesthesia. My insides were just ripped out, my guts on the
    floor, and no one bothered to sedate me!

    Well, wasn't that attractive of me to share with you. Okay. I bet my phone is
    ringing off the hook already!

    Now about myself -- well, I've just had to re-enter the workforce as a
    telemarketer. Basically I call people up, try to sell them something and they hang
    up on me. It's very fulfilling.

    Oh, and I just enrolled in a magic class at the high school adult school. It was
    either magic or a step aerobics class, and quite frankly, magic seemed less
    exhausting. And to be even more frank, I thought it'd be a more likely place to
    meet men. Unfortunately, the class consists entirely of divorced women, all
    hoping to meet men. Yes, seven divorced women learning how to pull a coin
    from a child's ear, while next door twenty-five single men do step aerobics. Well,
    at least I'm back in the game!

    Oh, I almost forgot -- I've got children! Well isn't that attractive. So Mr. Video
    Man, I hope you don't hate children.

    Though I do. Oh, I don't hate my children, of course! I hate the concept of having
    to raise children all by yourself after your dead husband walks out on your fortieth
    birthday! Oh my God! I just told you he left me, not visa versa! DAMAGED
    GOODS ALERT! Why would her dead husband dump her and run off with an
    older woman? That's right, he had a mid-life crisis and he didn't even have the
    decency to leave me for someone young and pretty and firm! He left me for a
    size eighteen with a grandchild and a bad hip! So now you're really wondering
    what is wrong with Rose Ritz!

    Well you know what? I don't care, Mr. Video Man! 'Cause I've stayed up many a
    late night with nothing to comfort me except my thirty-two inch television and sent
    away for all those tapes from all those late-night infomercial things -- Tony
    Robbins, Richard Simmons, all those nuts who think they're psychic -- and now I
    believe in myself! Stop the insanity! Deal a meal! I'm okay!

    And now, after fifteen years of waking up next to the same balding lump of
    deadwood, Rose Ritz is ready and in control and had to stop the car three times
    to throw up on the way to this humiliating video dating session just on the
    thousand-to-one chance that maybe she'll meet a decent guy so she doesn't
    have to be alone for the rest of her life 'cause her dead husband left her for a
    limping grandmother!

    (A beat) No warning. "I love someone more." Then he just left. And then it just
    stopped. My life. For three days, I laid in bed, and just stopped.

    And somehow, here I am -- on the six month anniversary of the collapse of my


    life -- I got myself here -- to make the very first dating video of Rose Ritz. So
    choose me. Mr. Video Man. Please.
