Monday, November 17th 11:54pm Dear Diary, What a whirlwind! Itâ??s been almost two weeks since Iâ??ve last written in my diary. Since election night, actually. And what a night! Barack made an amazing acceptance speech, and I was truly proud to be his wife. And good for him for getting going on his cabinet. I donâ??t want a lazy president for a husband. Iâ??m still very troubled about all the anti-gay legislation that was passed, and Iâ??m hoping that thereâ??s some way to overturn that. It concerns me to think that while our country has come so far as to elect a black president, that we still canâ??t allow everyone to have same rights. Perhaps we will finally win on this issue when Sasha and Malia are my age. Whew, I can’t imagine my girls in their forties! I can’t even picture them as teenagers! I worry that growing up in the White House will somehow damage their good upbringing. But I can’t imagine that the celebrity status would go to their heads. At least, I hope it won’t… I also just want them to be able to have normal lives as kids, but that really won’t be possible if they’re in the White House and followed around by Secret Service all the time, as I expect they will. I now fear for their safety more than ever. But I suppose that would be true for all mothers. It certainly has been nice to spend more time with them now that the campaign season is over. I know they appreciate it, particularly after spending the last few months with their grandmother. Though life will never be the same for them, especially when we move into the White House. I’m looking forward to that day! Yours always, Michelle Originally posted in The Secret Diary of Michelle Obama

my cat Buddy was spotted 1/2 a mile away less than a year ago. He was brought back safe and sound. we moved to a block away from where he was found and today we spotted a cat that looks like his brother who ran away. the cat was a female and looked kind of young. Buddy is the exact opposite coloring but his mom and his brother were pretty close colorwise. Is it possible that Buddy's offspring could look exactly like his brother??

Happy Birthday to RuPaul who turns 48 today! The famous drag queen was born November 17, 1960, in San Diego,CA. That makes him a Scorpio Sun, Scorpio Moon and Gemini Ascendant.  Gemini Ascendant is perfect for the diva with two very distinct personalities. Daisy Fuentes, the hot Cuban super model,and Martin Scorsese, the Academy Award winning director, are also celebrating birthdays.  Proud and ferocious, somewhat vain...Sounds about right on.
