Since I was 18, one of the items on my bucket list (OK we didn't call them 'bucket lists' back then...but I wrote it in my diary) was to meet one Donnie Wahlberg from New Kids On The Block and pinch his ass.
When NKOTB reunited and went on their boy band super tour with the Backstreet Boys, my drive and determination to see that dream fulfilled was reborn. And cue the creation of Mission: Donnie Wahlberg Ass Grab.
I planned and planned.
So today is the day.
I am off to Montreal with my sister, cousins and brother's girlfriend to go see NKOTBSB in concert.
And cue screams of delight.
The 18-year old girl in me is very, very excited. She's making me go to this concert. Forcing me really. The 18-year old girl in me gets all full of serious attitude and becomes unbearably bitchy when she doesn't get her way.

Consuelo Bernardi is a 30-something mummy of two. She can't play an instrument or sing a tune in key but is still obsessed with music. After a five year hiatus from the radio business she's back on the air doing weekends on Majic 100, Today's Soft Rock in Ottawa.
Still she always found the time to listen to music and make it a huge part of her life. She has more CDs than she cares to count and her monthly downloading bill for her iPod? Don’t even go there. Music truly is food for her soul. Plus secretly she’s always wanted to be a wannabe rock star...a girl can dream.
So take a minute from your day and crank up the volume. Motherhood isn't always pretty but at least your music will be hot.
