Before I post about Shelly being at 15 weeks today, I must get something off my chest. I did something this morning I'm not real proud of and I need to clear my conscience. You see, I was downstairs waiting on Daphne to finish her business outside. The Today Show was on upstairs on the big screen. I overheard Matt Lauer introduce a band that sounded very familiar but I hadn't heard in about 20 years. That's right, New Kids on the Block. I sauntered up the stairs and saw them performing live on Times Square.
So here's where it gets a little embarrassing. After looking out my front door to ensure no one was looking, I grabbed the remote, turned it up to 26, and sang along to "Hangin' Tough". I even tried to do the little foot movements, almost breaking my ankle in the process. I think the problem was that I was trying to do the sway your arm from side to side thing at the same time as the foot shuffle. I should probably stick with doing one of those at a time until I get my 1988 bearings back.
But I certainly do recall Marcy and Mandy playing the New Kids concert on our VCR at home every day after school. I'll admit I was a bit of a fan. I remember my grandpa had this round hat. I considered seeing if he'd let me have it so I could cut the top out of it and look like Joey McIntyre.
Man, what's wrong with me today? It's like there's a link between jet lag and spouting off all kinds of embarrassing facts. I'd better stop before I lose the remaining respect some of you still have of me.
Plus, I think they are getting ready to sing "The Right Stuff"...oops!

I'm just happy Daphne was outside and didn't have to witness any of that! Actually it's good no one did! HA!
