Listen. It's certainly been a long time since I was 14 years old. Longer than I like to think about. I have changed in a lot of ways, but every now and then, I am reminded that in some ways, I am very much the same.
For example, I think as long as I live, there will never be a time when JC Chasez does not make my heart explode a little bit.
[Ed. Note: At this point, if you do not know who JC Chasez is, I am certainly not going to explain it to you.]
I came across a video of him performing at the Trevor Project Live this weekend:
I mean, honestly? True Colors? One of my favorite songs, ever. Cyndi Lauper is my girl. And I don't care how old I am, or how old he is, he still makes my knees a little wibble-wobbly.
And then I came across this seasonally-appropriate little gem:
Heart. Melting. Their voices are like a sweater to my heart. And you can quote me on that. And Justin's sweater is like a sweater to....well...it's really fucking soft. What's funny, is that at some point, I have watched this performance enough times that I can close my eyes, listen to this song, and mimic JC's hand gestures perfectly. It's a sickness.
And to think my NSYNC obsession came before the days of YouTube is just outrageous. All of the EFFORT I put in to programming our 1983 VCR to record their every appearance, only to be outraged when the VCR refused to work during a very important TRL interview, or awards show performance. All those VHS tapes that I still....have....in my closet.
Anyway, back to the video....can I just say I miss THIS Justin Timberlake? Where did THIS Justin go? I mean, look at that adorable little angel face? Those caterpillar eyebrows that never quite completed their crawl across his forehead. I miss that Justin. New Justin is kind of douche-y.
Sigh.
File this under: sometimes I feel like I'm only blogging for Leah.
