Identity Crisis

SO, I am having an identity crisis caused by....wait for it....wait for it...New Kids on the Block. I still like them...or like them again or whatever.

I was a ridiculous fan back in the day. I had enough posters on my wall to be considered wallpaper. All the tapes...yep, tapes. Really, I was RIDICULOUS. My mom will tell you that when we moved from Germany back to the States during my New Kids phase, I would not allow my posters to be shipped for fear of damage or going to long without looking at them or whatever. So, I put them in a duffel bag...probably thousands of them...it was so heavy. I dragged the duffel bag through airports and took it as my one carry-on for a 10 hour flight. My friend's family and my family drove 4 hours to see them in concert in Munich (my brother is cringing at the memory).

So, now that I have put behind me my somewhat embarrassing youthful obsession, they decided to reunite. I am deciding which one is...well, back then, it was cutest (I was a Jon fan)...now, it is hottest (kind of digging Danny...what a body...and the tats, yum) again. I can't get Summertime out of my head. In fact, I really like all the new music. Looking back at old pictures of them, they look goofy...but have you seen pics of them now...goofy is not the word that comes to mind.

WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?!?!?!?! I am an adult...a grown woman. Women do not like boy bands. **groans**

I like the Backstreet Boys -- but only one of their newest albums, not exactly the same way you like NKOTB. BUT . . . if you were liking, say, the Jonas Brothers like this, maybe I would be concerned.
