I've claimed it many times and will do so many times again... I am an orphan with living parents. I have no parents but those that had to do with my genetic makeup still live and breathe. They just are uncaring. One replaced me with alcohol and the other with a ready made family and money. Do I feel slighted or insulted by these things?

"All I want is nothing to do..." The title of this entry and the first line comes from the song, 'Cold Beer and Remote Control' by the Indigo Girls. (I can't say enough good things about the Indigo Girls). So yes, after a long, emotional week I look forward to going home and cracking open a beer whilst eating Chinese take-out, cleaning and putting together a jigsaw puzzle.
