Nicole runs into her identical twin who was separated at birth. I guess having 2 spoiled anorexic brats to raise was just too much for Lionel.

Eighties superstars WHAM! are set to reunite - GEORGE MICHAEL wants his former band mate ANDREW RIDGELEY to join him on tour.The two-man pop phenomenon split up in 1986 after a final performance at London's Wembley Stadium, and now they will return there as a band again.Michael says, "I'm going to ask Andrew to perform with me at Wembley in September (06)."I'm going to ask him to perform LAST CHRISTMAS with me. We played the song at the end of the gigs together in Wembley. It will be lovely to do the same thing twenty years later."

You know, I actually didn't know George Michael was gay until the hitting on the cop in the park bathroom incident but looking at this picture, how could I not? Guess I was naive in the 80's.

It's currently $3.34 a gallon in my neck of the woods. I drive 150 miles a day. This bites!

Mother's Day


How I hate this day. It's the worst day of the year for me and it's always right near the second worst day of the year for me, May 11th. When you are childless and not by choice but by circumstance, this day is a nightmare. Actually it starts a few weeks in advance with all the cute commercials on tv with little kids bringing burnt toast and orange juice to Mom in bed and then handsome hubby gives her a diamond ring for being THE BEST MOM IN THE WORLD.

Then you have to go buy a gift and card for your own Mom. Hundreds of cards to choose from. Sappy, funny, cute, pretty, precious, appreciative cards all reminding you of what you aren't.

"I love you Mommy" written inside. I love you Mommy. I have never heard those words...ever. My cat meow's at me and it sounds like love but it just doesn't cut it, ya know?

I ventured out for lunch, just to get something to go and all the tables were filled with families. Some Mom's had on coursages or had flowers or gifts at the table. Everyone making a fuss over her. It's her day. I checked my calender, it's a Fabulous Frogs calendar by David McEnery. It has such holidays listed as "Early May Bank Holiday" and "Election Day" in November but no where can I find the "Divorced and Childless Day" holiday. Maybe it's a misprint.

At some point today I have to gather the strength to call my Mom and wish her a happy mother's day. She likes to talk a long time and at some point, the fact that I'm 43, single, childress and not dating is bound to come up. Not looking forward to it so I'm compiling a list of topics to quickly toss in, just in case.

Happy Mother's Day to all you very lucky Mother's out there. Even if they are horrible brats at this moment or worse, no longer with us, at least you have the memories, the pictures, the drawings and the little voice saying "I love you Mommy" forever in your heart.

What was the second worst day about? May 11th would have been my 22nd wedding anniversary. Then there's January 3rd, divorce day followed by February 14th, a close fourth on my list. I hate almost all holidays as they are made for families. Wonder where I can get a no holidays calendar?
