All aboard the BSB emotional roller coaster ride

[NGCKLS]

Don't know about you guys, but this week has been hell on my emotions. It started on Monday when I was totally bummed out because I had planned to go to NYC for the TRL show, but things just didn't work out. All day at work, I kept looking at my watch wondering what was happening and when 3:00 pm came around I could barely concentrate. How did the guys look, did enough fans show up, was Carson being a scumbag, what was the video like. God, it took all my strength to get through the next two hours. Rushed home, had to make small talk with the hubby (how was your day, yada, yada) when all I wanted to do was watch the taping of the show. Finally got some time by myself, put in the tape and cried when the boys walked onto the TRL set. God, they looked great!!! Then, seeing SOMH for the first time. It took my breath away. So, Tuesday I'm on cloud nine -- the video was awesome, the boys looked happy and the fans showed TRL that BSB still rules. But, had to read posts on LD from fans who got to meet the guys while they were in NYC (I'm happy for them, but oh soooooooooo jealous!) So, couldn't get much work done that day either. Then, Wednesday was my 48th birthday (the "elder" fans can related to what emotions this type of event causes). Got lots of BSB stuff. Then, Thursday two friends came over after work for our monthly BSB night and we watched the TRL show all over again. We laughed hysterically about the three girls in the BSB bunker, because that is us (just add 20 years)!! When we get together we act just like them. We figured if the three of us had been in that bunker, they would have had to blindfold BSB and they would have screamed too when the blindfolds came off. Nick would have said to Carson: "How long did you say these girls were in the bunker?" LOL! So today, I'm coming down from cloud nine just a bit, but anxiously awaiting the next BSB event. What a ride this has been!!

You don't know what a comfort it is to read a post like that from a crazed older fan. (You and I are both of the Woodstock era! LOL)I felt half dead for most of the summer cuz there was next to no BSB. Then when the BK promotion started and it was time for the single to be released, i thought I would lose my mind. Like you, I worried about fan response. I don't why I get so worked up! Premenopausal, maybe? LOL!
Hey - just save some space in that bunker for me!

[Thank-U-God]

Oh lord, do I know how you feel. For me it started on Sunday night with a good cry, I cried so much my eyes looked like I had been in a street fight on Monday . Why, was I crying, who the hell knows.

This whole week just dragged, reading about the stories all the fans are saying about going to the trl set and then most of you guys have watched the video. I don't have cable so I haven't even seen it. That really bites.

I haven't seen Nick throw the papers, or Howie with his hair all wild, or AJ's crazyness or any of it. Oh no, I feel like crying again. I thought I was just pmsing and then there's been a full moon all week, and that doesn't help. I need a drink really bad right now.

Boy, can I relate...I feel like this is really stupid to be feeling this way .. but I just love them so much...I just have to hear one word about them or a song and I drop whatever it is I am doing and then my concentration is shot..and on Monday I was sitting at work and 3:00 came and I was just dying inside.. got off at 3:30 picked up my 13 yr daughter at school and she said GET A MOVE ON IT ... at least she and her friends dont mind that I am just as crazed as they are..my 2 sons 17 & 15 figure I must have something mentally wrong with me...my hubby is sweet about it.. but when he starts to sing a BSB song.. I'm like no no no .. it just doesnt work coming from him.. lol

Hey NCGKLS -- happy belated birthday from another forty-something fan. Nothin' like a big old pms hormone rush right around a holiday or birthday, is there?! At least the boys were back on TV and radio to help cheer you up and it all turned out well.

Loved hearing about you and your friends' monthly BSB night. Sounds like a great time! Enjoy!
