Baby, Baby, Baby oooohhh.

I was going to do this blogpost as a video, and I just couldn't stomach it.  But this here blog has many purposes, and one is to keep me honest, so I continue with the self-exposure.

The Coco in my previous post is one of my favorite people in the world.  I love just about everything about her; I trust her completely.  I have told her things that I have never since breathed out loud.  Thus, I also completely respect her opinion.

Well imagine my surprise when she tells me months ago that I simply must watch "Never Say Never".

Well what the hell is that?


Oh.  Seriously?!  I thought she had to be kidding.  I knew very little about this prepubescent heartthrob before she proclaimed his greatness.  Sometimes teenage patients of mine hang his picture up in their hospital rooms.  I know he's endorsed by Usher.  He's also teased on sketch shows.  So what?  Coco insisted that this little man is the real deal and everything from his Canadian roots to his iconic hair is perfectly lovable. 

Well, I know that the teenie bopper in me is still very much alive, and I also know Coco knows her shit so I made a mental note to watch it at some point.  Last week, I was feeling like I needed a pick me up.  So I went into the grocery store, hood over head, and snuck up to the Redbox DVD rental kiosk.  I quickly made my choice and skulked outta there fast before anyone could see what I had chosen.  I then proceeded to let the DVD sit shamefully in the bottom of my purse for days.  Finally, I put it in during one of my planned 'productivity' days, thinking it would just be on in the background while I paid my bills and mended buttons.  

Huh.  Nothing got done.  Not one thing.  I sat on my flat arse and watched the entire thing. twice, asian eyes glued to the screen.  This kid is just mad.  Talented.  It's incredible, and oh so intoxicating.  I found myself falling for him completely, and I really just want to make his dreams come true.  I have to love him even more, because he also makes me want to make my dreams come true.  I've got the fever, people.  I don't want any tylenol.  Let it burn.
