15 Years.

It's currently 2 AM on December 24, Christmas Eve. For this blog I am actually sitting in my bed and writing, you know the pen and paper kind of writing. I am going to type this all later for you while I am "working". I don't have a laptop and I don't want to sit at my computer as I am trying to fall asleep.


I am having a hard time sleeping tonight, I am too excited for Christmas. Now that I have finally finished my shopping I can enjoy the season, even if it's only for two days. I was wrapping the last of my gifts and flipping through the cable channels trying to find something to good to watch. I flipped past Fox News and immediately switch it back. What did I see that made me turn back you ask?


I saw Nick Carter and AJ McLean of the Backstreet Boys. Before I really knew what they were talking about I was worried something had happened. Well you can all rest easy! Nothing has happened with the Backstreet Boys. They were interviewing them because they had a new CD, and because this year marks the 15 year anniversary for them being a group. Their "new" CD came out in October so it's technically not new at all, but it is their newest.


What I can't believe is I have been a fan of theirs for 15 years! Granted half of those years I shoved my obession into the closet and kept it quiet. However anyone who knew me in high school knew I love them very much. I was going to marry AJ, I do believe he is still single well at least not married. So I might still have a shot haha. I do still have all my posters, magazine clippings, collector pins and head shots. They've safely been packed into a box.


It's been 13 years since I have been a Collective Soul fan. Time goes by so fast, I remember buying my first CD, Backstreet Boys of course, thinking how cool it would be to have a job and then I would be able to buy all the CD's I wanted. I wouldn't have to save up my allowance for weeks for one $15 CD. I do remember they were really pricey back then too. I sound so old!


I did think it was funny I was still watching a news station even though they were saying facts about them I already knew. If this was 10 years ago I would have had the VCR recording the interview. On that note I think I am done confessing my obsessions .


I am trying to write on here much more, I am not a fan of talking about myself. I have thought of a few stories that would be fun to share. Maybe I'll even delve into my divorce for you, even though I dont like talking about it in detail everyone wants to know. Plus that's the juicy stuff everyone wants to know right?
