My Life as a Rock Star by Melinda Coats

I read this in the MomSense magazine and absolutely cracked up laughing. Yes, the life of a mother is just like the life of a rock star. Enjoy!

"My Life as a Rockstar"

by Melinda Coats

MomSense Magazine July/Aug 2009

"I live the life of a rock star. It's true! I have wild hair and make-up with frequent costume changes.

Everywhere I go I have and entourage. People are constantly yelling my name. I look out into the crowd and they're actually crying for me, reaching for me.

I have no privacy. I'm watched when I shower, when I'm cooking, even when I use the restroom...for my own protection, I'm sure.

When I go places I must do so quickly before my fans get out of control and start a riot. Every night a different guy wants to sleep with me. Each of them seems genuinely hurt when I turn him away.

Occasionally I get dirty undergarments whirled at me with a whoop and a smile. It's even hard sometimes to walk through my own home without someone spotting me and trying to grab my legs or my clothing.

Oh and don't forget about the stalkers! You know those crazed fans that follow you everywhere? Why, I can't even talk on the phone in the pantry without an eye or two peeping in at me.

Yes it's true - I live the life of a rock star!"
