T'was a goodly day.

[aruan]

So, I caught MTV Cribs this morning, just as they were frolicing around one Howie Dorough's beachside penthouse.

Holy good god! Now, I know he's known as "the Gay One" of Backstreet, but jeezlepetes! Possessed with JC's vibe and Lance's execution, he's an absolutely darling conglomerate, creating one of the most adorably gayest gay boys ever! Am utterly charmed.

There was a spontaneous party at chez Werkmeister. Highlight of the evening was our household's introduction to a mixed drink called Blowjob, which resulted in much cross-room shouting of "lemme give you a Blowjob, see how you like it," "where's my Blowjob already," "gimme that Blowjob, dammit," and "dude, I want another Blowjob." Yes, we are in fact a group of twelve-year olds.

Big, *big* hugs to the ladies of giddyupnow. A: I'll call tomorrow with news, which *will* be good I don't care how many flunkies I'll have to go through. S: You know you're just having too much fun. *g*

My snarkier than your average knight in shining armor, Sean, is whisking me away for a weekend of snorkeling in the Keys with some friends, and I couldn't be more excited. We're hitting up Sports Authority on Saturday for equipment.

I'm to bed, as speaking of hitting up places, I'll be at the Pembroke Road CompUSA grand opening bright and early, where I've been promised a free (!?) DVD player as part of the festivities.

Ed. Note: This was by far the most unsurprising yet amusing part of my day:

You are... Dramaqueen!Justin (aka Bitch!Justin) Somewhere between Slut!Justin and Immature!Justin comes Dramaqueen!Justin. Your personality fluctuates between two distinct modes, "whiny" and "horny." If you're not threatening to leave the band over the lack of red Jolly Ranchers you're probably off screwing JC. Lance doesn't like you, but then he's probably just bitter that you got the free Palm Pilot.

Howie just exudes the gay. It's funny, really; because he's a tiny, tiny little thing, you'd think there would be *less* room for all that gay. But you'd be wrong. Hee!

You didn't exaggerate. Sometime you should see the footage of Howie claiming he likes Europe because of all the wild women. It's possibly the least convincing statement ever uttered. Seriously. *grin*

[gjstruthseeker.livejournal.com]

And suddenly I'm thinking of Howie as a high resolution image that's been zipped. The dual connotations for which amuse me to further heights.

Ahem. See icon, as it goes for Lance and me both.

The footage sounds... well, let's just say there's a certain enthusiasm straight men have in their voice when speaking of the wild women of mainland Europe, and nothing of what I noted in Howie's speech patterns or mannerisms during Cribs would lead me to believe that he could've been doing anything but reading the words off of a Teleprompter. It sounds beyond adorable. *g*

Re:

*laughing* It was even worse than reading the words off the teleprompter: it sounded like he'd PRACTICED it, and it still came out all oddly-inflected and he had this little grimace on his face. It was worse than "I am not a crook" or "I never had sexual relations with that woman." And far, far beyond adorable.

I love Howie. He doesn't even bother with beards. *grin* Though he plays the pronoun game like a PRO when pressed. Lance should take lessons. Hmmm...maybe Lance HAS!

[gjstruthseeker.livejournal.com]

Bwah! Flash of Howie in front of a mirror in a dingy German hotel bathroom, looking at himself with earnest concentration and repeating the line while trying to figure out the least sarcastic arch of his eyebrows. *laughs*

It was worse than "I am not a crook" or "I never had sexual relations with that woman." And far, far beyond adorable.

That's it. I'm officially keeping this boy.

The pronoun game! Heh, Lance taking lessons. Thing is, Howie seems like he'd be a great teacher, patient and thorough. Now Lance, these are your plural pronouns. Learn 'em, live 'em, keep 'em guessing, and don't forget to send up a little thanks every night for our gender-neutral English language.

heh. He's the cutest little boybander in the whole wide world. And you should *hear* some of the slashy things that come out of his mouth, ye gods. I heart him more than words can say.

*laughing* Thanks for the gender-neutral English language! Indeed. And I can see Lance, nodding eagerly, all wide-eyed. And then mastering the skill, making his teacher proud...

*sniffle*

Okay, I really need to get out of here. I've clearly gone right 'round the bend.

[gjstruthseeker.livejournal.com]

Okay, so both the best friend and I seem to have taken to Howie. Would you mind posting a couple of your favorite BSB-related links? Just a major one and a good picture archive - up until now I've been strictly an *NSYNC girl, and for all the fic overlap there's surprisingly little of the same in fansites.

Dude, 'round the bend' is where all the cool kids hang out! Except instead of sneaking cigarettes and dealing drugs, we swap lip balm for Bobbleheads and spend too much of our time discussing the hypothetical inter/intra-group dynamics of boybands. The way I see it, our parents should be relieved, if not proud. *nod*

Re:

[apetslife.livejournal.com]

heh. well, for LJs you should check out coreopsis (who has some great clips up at the moment) and zoicite and flutterg, my BSBcentric friends on the list. :-)

And, hmm, I'll have to wait till later to give you links, since they're all at home. I don't know if I've got a good picture archive, though there's a Howie/Nick picture archive at flutter's page that's just wonderful.

Heh. Heh. I think I like it here in 'round the bend'. Of course, I'll still have to sneak off for the occasional cigarette...*G*
