My Biggest DisappointmentOften the things we look forward to the most turn out to be a huge let down. As Freddy Woo puts it, "High heels in bed? No fun at all. Porn has a lot to answer for."
Well, Freddy, you are supposed to get someone else to wear them.
What's disappointed you lot?

My birthdaySo two days ago, I turned the big 34. I was all very excited about it. My boyfriend asked what I wanted, and I told him I wanted a party. He'd already got me concert tickets to see Rod Stewart and we just got back from vacation (fishing trip, I caught the biggest fish out of 25 of us, yay!) so all I wanted from him was to bbq at his place.
15 people were invited, so I was looking forward to the cards and presents I was going to get.
I spent a couple hours in tears, because I kept waiting for mum to call to wish me a happy birthday, and, of course, there was no call. That was hard, really hard. The first time her death really hit me.
So, after spending a couple hours in the pub, I turn up at boyfs house where the party was, and there was food galore and cake and ice cream.
I didn't get a single birthday card, and absolutely no presents, either. Yeah, I'm a selfish cow, but c'mon. Not even a card. From anybody......
Ah well. I still have a nice rack.

Belated Happy BirthdayI wouldn't dream of turning up at a birthday party without at least a token gift, bottle of wine, flowers, something like that.
*hugs* for the first birthday without your mum. "Firsts" are always a nightmare.

No cards?Booooo... I feel your pain!
Funnily enough, just had a birthday myself. And even though I got some cards from friends and family ..... I couldn't help thinking my mantlepiece looked a little bare this year.

Eh?You can't just end it with "I still have a nice rack" without some proof to back it up! I picture of your nice rack wouldn't come amiss, young lady!
Oh, happy birthday.
