I’m sorry, bloggy break or not, I can’t NOT talk about the NKOTB today. (Excuse the double negative, I’m pretty sure Mrs. Callahan, my 12th grade English teacher isn’t reading….)
I resisted all morning the urge to get on here and blog about them, and I gave in. I can’t help it. And did you know that they added more tour dates… so I don’t have to drive as far now…
but here’s the sad part. I happened to be helping out at the church yard sale this morning and escaped into the youth room to watch them. But only when my trusted buddy would call me when they were back on… it helps to have little kids understand the importance of knowing when the commercials end and the real content is back on.
A normal person would sit on the couch and watch, but not me. No… I was up and singing and dancing, assuming that I was by myself or with another fellow NKOTB fan, until I was jamming to Tonight… swooning in the slow parts and rocking out when the tempo picked up.
That’s when I turned around and saw Pastor Man standing there laughing.
What’s even worse? I didn’t care!
No, I didn’t. And when he dissed them… (i can see now that the boys are going to feel just as threated by them as they were 18 years ago….) I totally spouted back with… “I didn’t put up with people talking bad about them then and I won’t now.”
I like their new single… yes, I downloaded it when it was released Tuesday… and I wasn’t the only one who knew all the words and could sing along when they sang it today… did you see all the other 30 something mothers there singing, too?
And oh.my.word… did you see Donnie lift up his shirt and show that belly? I think I was light headed.
And what’s up with Jordan with the sunglasses in the pouring rain and the shirt so far open? I never did like him though. But I will say, Monkey Boy has aged well. Seriously.
Jon looked a little winded, but seriously, I can’t move like that now at 31 and I’m a decent dancer… he’s 40! Still impressed after all these years, but I wish they wouldn’t have cut away during the oh oh oh oh oh part of Right Stuff. It doesn’t matter, I danced there for them.
DORK!
Yup, that’s me!
D-O-R-K!
But I don’t care.
The new kids are back and I am happy….
except for the skanks on the stage behind them… I could’ve done without them.
I now return you to this bloggy break of mine, in which, I am pleased to report that I have gotten SO much done this week, but there’s still more to be done to get caught up. I appreciate your prayers for me, despite the fact that it was so petty in nature… but hey! If it’s important to me, then it’s important to Him.
See you Monday… and oh yeah, I may have a video… if I can get all that laundry folded….
Until next time…

Here's the deal... I'm insane. Plain and simple. And I do weird things, sometimes on purpose and sometimes not. I don't particularly like being this way, but it provides for entertainment for friends and family, and now the masses on the internet. Stick around for awhile...at some point in time, you'll laugh at me, if you haven't already!

Shame on me for totally forgetting. You would have thought since we had this conversation that they did it to honor my anniversary. /grumble
Im so happy that they opened more venues, Dallas in Oct just in time for my birthday. A co-worker and I were screaming like school girls when she told me.

I missed it, but wanted to hear your “analysis.” So I’m glad that you interrupted your break to let us know that you loved their performance (minus the skanks). I’ll have to catch it online today.
Now, quit reading e-mail and get back to your kids’ laundry!

Wait! Stop the presses! What? Donnie lifted up his shirt? Ok I’m totally turning my TV on right now & replaying their concert because I somehow missed that part.
And hey I’m a D-O-R-K right along with you. I’m sad that I once again won’t get to see them in concert but at least they are back and that makes my heart happy
How can you NOT love NKOTB? They just rock!

Wow, didn’t even know they were back together. Don’t think I’d see them in concert, but I can appreciate anyone going to see some of their fave bands from nostalgia. I still think Rick Springfield rocks. Thanks for dropping by my blog!

As I’ve glanced over your blog, I was thinking maybe I should add your blog to my bloglines. Then, I came across this NKOTB post and it sealed the deal. They were my first concert.
Thanks for stopping by my blog today.
