I can actually beat this; my mom called me tonight, to tell me that the reality show 'Hit Me Baby One More Time' was premiering. Loverboy was going to be on. I minced through the house, singing, 'The Kid Is Hot Tonight', talked Mr. Crib Chick into turning off 'Band of Brothers', and saw...an *ELDERLY* Mike Reno, belting out 'Working For the Weekend'. I. was. speechless. And you, Educat, know that it's no small feat to leave me with my mouth hanging open. And not in a good way. I'm sorry, I don't mean any offense to Mike Reno, but this really shocked me. I had to shut it off. It took the wind COMPLETELY out of my sails. I had to join Mr. Crib Chick in his evening glass of wine, I was so shook up. And then listen to him nod, and chastise me, saying things like, 'Yeah, uh huh, maybe now you'll start to act your age, blah, blah...'
Words fail me. If only you could have been here, perhaps some of the sting could've been taken away...:o(
I had to blog about the "Hit Me Baby" premiere, too - it's here. And I didn't even have the heart to talk about how Mike Reno resembled an old woman or how very very puffy the "Flock of Seagulls" guy looked... there was just so much to process...
