i am an adult. i've been an adult for a number of years. i have a job, two kids, a kind-of husband, a house. all adult things. but today, i'm a teenager. i woke up giddy because we're going to NKOTBSB* tonight. i have to admit, i was never a huge fan. i was a little bit old for the NKOTB craze, and even older for the BSB craze. but it didn't stop me from crushing on joey mcintyre (i never crushed on any of the backstreet boys...but i did love the song "i want it that way"). so i'm very excited for tonight. and i think about 50% of the excitement is just the going out part. to be able to dress up, get made-up and go out and have a few beers (few?) sounds delightful to me. the fact that i might have to calm my friend jamie down (stop screaming like a little girl, jamie...you're a 40-year old man), or dry nora's eyes when NKOTB come on stage...well, that's just the adult part of me kicking in.
so here's what i'm wearing tonight. unless of course i head over to marshalls during lunch and find something better. we'll see. i wanted to go for a
kimmy gibler adult look – loose shirt, skinny jeans, lots of bangles. cause you know, anytime you go to a tiger beat sort of concert, you have to ask yourself, WWKGW**?
and this, of course, will be me tonight
i can pretty much guarantee that at one point in the night i will scream, "i love you joey!!!"

*for the more sane person, NKOTBSB is a
very clever mix of new kids on the block and backstreet boys
** this is my very clever acronym for what would kimmy gibbler wear. i'm thinking of making bracelets.
