I can relate to almost everything said in the last posts. I too get these crushes on weird celebrities and boybands (NSYNC)(NKOTB), mainly athletes.

Age 7 to current (Troy Aikman)
Age 14 to current (Lance Armstrong)
Age 12 to current (Cal Ripken Jr)
I love older pro-athletes what can I say?
Oooh and also Tom Hanks- what a MAN!

Girls do mature faster than

I didn't have boy band crushes, but I love Johnny Depp and Orlando Bloom. Who doesn't?

2005-02-04T16:27:00.000-06:00

Heh, another NKOTB/BSB/random boyband fan over here. Sometimes you just have to give in to the cheesy pop music. I used to love Jon, and I met Jordan once too. Now I've moved on to hot talented swimmers! I can see myself having the same type of crushes even when I grow older. I guess that teenybopper part of me will never go away. =)

2005-02-04T14:59:00.000-06:00

Ha ha!! You ladies know nothing about love! Love=Nolan Ryan! He was the God of God's for me... (well Spitz too but I think Nolan was first.) I was such a little girl and my uncle would take me to see Angels games, because everyone else he knew loved the Dodgers (suck). Nolan Ryan was fierce, yo. (and yes he used to be an Angel) When my Mom asked me what magazine I wanted a subscription to:

2005-02-04T14:36:00.000-06:00

Kimberly...my dear NKOTB buddy...i think we brought some fans out of hiding..haha

as far as crushes..my mother looves Johnny Depp and Orlando Bloom. Well i like them too but she goes on and on about them.

Me?...im more of a girl who goes for handsome, sweet, talented olympic swimmer type guys...who specialize in the breaststroke...but i dont want to get too specific....lol

2005-02-04T14:35:00.000-06:00

Lynea my mom is a huge Johnny Reznick (sp?) fan too...and she swoons over Tom Cruise.
OH and I know Sarah can relate a little to this one-I have an aunt who is crazy about Dale Earnhardt Jr....its bad, she has EVERYTHING with the #8 on it-no joke.

As for me, ever since the first Apprentice season I've had a big crush on Bill Rancic-the guy who won....:)

OH and can you

2005-02-04T13:31:00.000-06:00

You ladies all make my day much more amusing! I adore you all! It's been the funniest day here. Eventhough I am having NKOTB flashbacks, it's great to hear your stories.

I also just had the strangest/funniest lunch experience, which I think you all might appreciate. I sat next to P. Diddy and his mom at lunch! He had a bunch of big bodyguards spread throughout the restaurant.

2005-02-04T13:14:00.000-06:00

haha oh man. you girls are the best ever! I was definitely a NKOTK fan (and, BSB and NSync) Joey mac is adorable and i definitely used to have the Jordan Knight doll ;) I am also willing to admit that I do own all of Joey's solo CD's.

Stephie--I'm glad you sent lynea a get away pack, even though she hopefully wont need it because the eagles are going to win. I feel much better knowing

2005-02-04T13:08:00.001-06:00

swimphilly..

To answer your question, no it is not just your family! My Mom has a huge crush on Harrison Ford and Sean Connery. My grandma is in love with John Wayne, and all of my aunts are in love with different Osmond brothers..*cringe*. The funny thing is though, when my Grandma was here a few weeks ago, she was looking at the blog because she thinks that Brendan is the best

2005-02-04T13:08:00.000-06:00

*Group Hug* Stephie,I agree.

I was also a Joey fan and even had a the pin with his face on it.

Pssst...I also liked Nsync. I loved Chris for some odd reason. If you tell anyone I will deny it. You can't prove a thing. *Runs off to hide cd's*

Thanks for the recap, Atrophy !

Just one thing, when daytripper asked what city was in his top ten (since Athens wasn't), he answered SPAIN; needless to say that made sis SpanishEyes and me sooooo happy!

Pumkin, next time you come to Spain let us know and we'll give you a tour and even go as far as to cook paella for you! Heh

2005-02-04T12:35:00.000-06:00

swimphilly - I searched for a Joey Mc blog but to no avail. He does leave audio messages on his official website though. Almost as good as having him sing "Please Don't Go Girl" to you! haha =)

And its definitely not just your family with the school girl crushes. My grandma would gladly take any one from the Colorado Avalanche. haha

Heather - I wish my trauma was caused by

2005-02-04T11:47:00.000-06:00

I tried to avoid the NKOTB addiction as long as I could. Even back then I was trying to buck the trends. But once I saw an article in the newspaper saying Jonathan and I had the same birthday (also Pixley's birthday), I knew he and I were soulmates. Darn him for never realizing it! LOL.

2005-02-04T11:45:00.000-06:00

Y'all are cracking me up with your schoolgirl crushes! I still get them too, but MrBeachGirl puts up with them and laughs at me, especially with the swimmerboys who are much younger than me! My worst one though was for Hanson--I was 25(!) when they first came out. That lasted for about 3 years. I was able to see them on their first concert tour. The end came while I was pregnant with my

2005-02-04T11:38:00.000-06:00

Great job on the recap Atrophy! Brendan is really great for taking time out of his day to chat with us girls.

oh....Leonardo D. I just loved him on growing pains. And NKOTB, I was crazy about Joey too...it was the curly hair, I just can't resist it.

I love you girlies too....I can't tell you how many times that I will be having a bad day and can come on here and just

2005-02-04T11:29:00.000-06:00

swimphilly- its not just your family. My mom has the bizarre obsession with bald men. She is absolutely in love with Stanley Tucci. Interesting note: my dad still has a full head of hair and probably will for the rest of his life.

I <3 NKOTB. I thought I was going to marry Donny when I was younger.

topic? great recap Atrophy. I was there for some of the chat, but after a

2005-02-04T11:27:00.000-06:00

My mom's crush is based more on voice than appearance. All she has to do is hear the first few seconds of a Barry White song and she's done. I think it is so cute. Maybe it's a voice thing because she also loves Josh Grobin. My mom is 57 and adores the guy.

Stephie,the escape plan is perfect....lol. By the way,I'm sure nothing bad would happen to Lyneas companion. Then again we could

2005-02-04T11:11:00.000-06:00

you know, us women....it cracks me up.
I mean really...we got thru our whole lives with different crushes, idols, fantasies - when one fizzles we move right onto the next one, but the old ones are still there lurking - and it continues for life.

Let me explain...my mother is 50, she looks like she is 20. She still squeals like a schoolgirl when she sees Prince or Rod Stewart(

2005-02-04T11:03:00.000-06:00

hey people...a NKOTB story for ya....I have Jordan Knight's actual cell phone number. Kate and I have actually talked to him on the phone, I kid not!! Long story, but a girl I work with...her sister is pretty good friends with him and she gave me the #. Just thought I would share that with u all. :)

Back then I loved Jon....wow they aren't really all that cute looking back on it. ah

2005-02-04T10:57:00.000-06:00

Sorry I missed the chat! And looks like I'll also be missing the A&M meet this weekend AND the Super Bowl Party- I'm headed out of town to attend a Super Bowl Party up in Indianapolis.

Brendan: why can't you go to a UT meet when I'm actually in town?!?

Also: there are a bunch of different Rudy's in town... which one is Brendan's haunt?

2005-02-04T10:56:00.000-06:00

swimphilly....you can join the NKOTB fan club that Jenny, lizook, and I have! I still have my Jordan Knight doll(sans the rat tail and earrings that my Mom tore out...she is a rat tail Gestapo )so bring your cassette tapes, your official NKOTB sleeping bag (I know you have one!) and join the party.

2005-02-04T10:40:00.000-06:00

Stephie- I do need a support group! Please bring many bagels. Rest assured, I did love the New Kids. I danced to their video, that I taped off the Disney Channel, every day in third grade. Still really wish I could do their flips... The traumatizing experience was that my mom approached Joey on my behalf, when I was 11, at church ON CHRISTMAS EVE. There are many details, but I am sure you

2005-02-04T10:37:00.000-06:00

Thanks for the compliments, everyone!

And, Lynea, your fears of the Super Bowl outcome remind me of when the Super Bowl came to San Diego two years ago when the Raiders were playing... someone. I stayed in my apartment for fear of either the Raiders winning (and rioting and burning down San Diego as a result) or the Raiders losing (and rioting and burning down San Diego as a result).
