Though we're pretty much used to seeing Kate Gosselin being on
Dancing with the Stars, the reality TV celebrity remains appalled at how she landed the gig. But she's even more surprised at how rehearsals keep interfering with her daily life.
Kate Gosselin Even Spent Birthday Dancing!"[I] can't say I've ever felt the need to point my toes while waiting in line at the grocery store or while stirring my pot of pasta at the stove," the
Jon and Kate Plus 8 matriarch wrote on her TLC blog. "But in two and a half short weeks, all of that has changed."
Kate Gosselin even admitted that all those hours of practicing have seeped into her subconscious. Long story short, she actually finds herself dreaming of her
Dancing with the Stars partner Tony Dovolani.
"[I]n my dreams containing everyday events, I dance through every scene," she went on. "I also see Tony - my dance instructor, partner, psychotherapist, caffeine provider and friend - in every frame."
One good thing that came out of it all though was the fact that she's slowly getting over her fear. Before she appeared on
Dancing with the Stars, Kate Gosselin admitted that she has dreaded stepping onto that ballroom floor ever since.
"I'm still in shock that, I, Kate Gosselin, am learning to dance ... and then performing for 24-million live viewers," the Jon and Kate Plus 8 star explained.
The mom of eight continued to describe her entire experience, from the many insecurities she had about this endeavor to the fulfillment she felt afterwards. "It also fills my already-overflowing days beyond capacity, leaving me with little sleep and lots of loose ends," she added. "But somewhere in the last two and a half weeks, I decided I not only wanted to do this, but I was going to give it my all ... in true Kate fashion!"
