Track 83: Music Mix XV (1990)

The creation of the World Wide Web happened when Tim Berners-Lee published his proposal before CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, in Switzerland. The United States and UK troops enter Kuwait in Operation Desert Shield as an effort to fight back Saddam Hussein, the US enters a major recession, the Berlin Wall is cleared, and President George Bush and Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev sign a historic agreement to end production of chemical weapons.

In music, Vince Neil sings us how Without You feels, Paula Abdul reminded us It's Just The Way That You Love Me, Technotronic helped us Get Up, and Billy Joel argued that We Didn't Start the Fire.

Having THAT Talk with my Parents about "Cock-Blocking"

I received a text message from my mom Friday afternoon that they were on their way to Austin and asked that I make reservations at Gloria's Latin Cuisine restaurant for 8:00 PM.

The problem was that I had a scheduled date with a young lady for Friday evening. I was planning on making dinner (my famous Chicken Piccatta) and watching season two of The Girlfriend Experience, which she introduced season one to me the previous weekend. Unfortunately, I had to cancel our date night.

Granted, my parents were concerned about how I was doing--I recently ended a year long relationship and currently dealing with a transition at my job. So, they wanted to check up on me and make sure I was doing okay. [Unbeknownst to them, I was doing quite well.]

I did have a talk with them about the challenges single parents with custody schedules deal with when dating. Perplexed, I further explained that when I have my son, I really can't go out. Similar, the other person can't date when they have their kids. What makes it challenging is that custody schedules may not match. And so when there is a date scheduled, we single parents jump on that opportunity.

I asked them that next time they give me a couple of days, at minimum, advanced noticed of a visit.
