Sorry for two Simpson Sisters posts in a row, but this is really really important, you guys.

Jessica Simpson ended her summer by watching her precious maltipoo Daisy get eaten by a coyote and then flew straight to Africa to film another installment of her new show The Price of Beauty. Unfortunately for Jessica, who was able to bring along her BFFs Cacee Cobb and hairstylist Ken Paves, she’s not quite used to the buggy climate. She posted the above photo, along with the tweet “WTF?!? Do I really have to sleep like this?” on her Twitter feed. However, Simpson can’t be having that bad of a time as she followed up the next day with “LOVED my first day in Uganda meeting incredible women filled with spirit.”

My heart always breaks for this dim-witted blond and I’m not sure why. Perhaps it’s her ability to see the positives in her roller-coaster life, or maybe it’s just because she had to grow up with Joe Simpson for a father, but for some reason she gets my loyalty.

I am totally nuts for Martha Stewart, but I think we all know homegirl emotes about as much as one of her homegrown squashes. However, Martha chose to detract a statement she made about Jessica Simpson’s loss of her maltipoo, Daisy to a coyote because she thought better of what she said. “I said that she should have been watching her dog more closely, but I feel very, very sorry for anybody that loses a pet.”

The apology likely came with Stewart learned of how hard the loss of the pup has been on Simpson, who, unlike most of her contemporaries, did not view her baby as just another accessory. The word is that Jessica is still devastated over the loss of Daisy, and while Martha’s support likely doesn’t fix the problem, I’m sure that Jessica is finding comfort in the fact that most people realize a coyote attack is typically not the owners fault.

It was only yesterday that I told you that, according to her friends, Jessica Simpson was in a tailspin over the presumed death of her Malti-Poo, Daisy.  The reports were claiming that she wouldn’t leave her parents house and I had visions of her curled up, existing solely on Slim Jims and mojitos.  It seems that she’s doing better than all that.

Jessica was seen today looking happy and healthy at Heathrow Airport in London, smiling (though who knows what pain lies behind those drink coaster sunglasses?), and with one less bag to carry (too soon?).

Jessica Simpson is having a really difficult time dealing with the loss of her Malti-Poo, Daisy.  According to People, she won’t leave her parents’ house and is generally inconsolable.

Her unnamed friend said, “Daisy was her baby.  It’s going to put her in a tailspin.  It will put her in the worst place ever.”

“Whenever things went wrong for Jessica, she reached for Daisy,” another source, a friend, says. “Daisy was her security blanket. When people let her down, she always had Daisy.”

On Sept. 19, her stylist pal Ken Paves convinced Simpson to finally leave her parents’ house. They went to Vino in Encino, Calif., for an attempt to perk her up.

“Jessica seemed okay, but wasn’t smiling much,” an onlooker says. “The wine made her relax a bit, but it was still obvious that she was having a devastating week.”

I believe in full disclosure, so let me tell you that I don’t have any dogs.  I don’t feel a connection to dogs and I will never understand people who call their dogs “my child”.  I just don’t relate.  I’m sure if I had a dog, I’d understand the connection.  So, I think it’s sad that her very adorable dog was snatched away by a coyote, but I’m shocked that People has written this many articles about a dead dog.  Come to think of it, I’m shocked that I’ve written this many articles about a dead dog.  The death of the greatest comedic actress of our times (Bea Arthur) didn’t get this much coverage.

Cheer up, Jessica!  Things could be worse.  You could still be waiting for an engagement ring from a dude who never had any intention of giving you one.  Silver lining, silver lining.

Ugh, my heart just breaks for Jessica Simpson, whose little Maltipoo Daisy went missing on Monday after being snatched by a coyote. I relate to this on so many levels. First, I had a dog die about a year and a half ago, and it was one of the most upsetting and stressful experiences of my life. I have my little Leo now, and he makes my life so happy, and I can’t imagine losing him. Second, when I was a little girl living in Arizona, we had an outdoor cat named Jingles who was wandering around in the desert and got eaten by coyotes. That was another very horrible experience. So I understand what Jessica’s going through right now, and I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy.

Even though “experts” are predicting the dog is no longer alive, Jessica continues to hold out hope, posting on her Twitter: “Still holding out hope despite the assholes that say is it a dumb thing to do. Daisy is my baby…why would I stop searching? I’m a mom.” Amen, sister. You can’t just give up that easily on your baby!

Us Magazine reports that Jessica is working with a pet-finding service called FindToto to try to bring Daisy home. I know the odds are slim, but I really hope she can get her baby back. My prayers are with you, Jessica!

Jessica Simpson took to her Twitter yesterday to let everyone know that she was searching after her Malti-Poo Daisy, a gift from ex-husband Nick Lachey, was snatched away by a coyote.  ”My heart is broken because a coyote took my precious Daisy right in front of our eyes. HORROR! We are searching. Hoping. Please help!”

Aw, this is so sad.  Daisy is that cute little puff ball that Jessica is usually seen traveling with.  One minute she was hanging out in her Louis Vuitton pet carrier and the next … well, never mind.

Coyotes are a real problem in lots of areas.  Here in Massachusetts they are so displaced thanks to all the new housing developments that have encroached upon their territory — we have had coyotes walk right across our yard — yet it doesn’t seem fair to thin them out either.

Page Six is reporting that Jessica Simpson’s father Joe — another overbearing stage father named Joe … interesting — is pushing to have his daughter be the replacement judge on American Idol.  Now, I understand the appeal of having a guest judge, but doesn’t it just make sense to have three judges on AI?  I never understood why they went to four.  All it does is add the potential for a tie.  

If Jess was on the panel, it would never be quite as entertaining as Paula’s antics.  However, Jessica forgets everything, so how long would it take before she starts calling her coworkers Robby, Carol and Cecil?  I can see her doing the press junket now.  ”Yeah, ya’ll, I’m so excited to be the newest addition to African … uh, I mean American … Idol!  Yeah, American Idol!  That’s it!  Gosh, ya’ll make me so nervous!”

I think she’d be a great train wreck fit.

UPDATE:  E! is saying it isn’t so.  FML.
