Okay, so... I'm a grown ass woman, as Oprah said on her show, but I still get all tingly when I think about Shaun Cassidy, Leif Garret, David Cassidy, Peter Frampton, etc...
I was that girl that was boyCRAZY. It's insane that I still get that giddy feeling when I see my idols on stage, on TV or whatever. I love that I can still feel that way. Those intense, teenage (and much pre-teen) feelings of admiration for the tame crushes of my past. I can't wait for Penelope to find her first idol. You never forget your first loves and they really stay with you. I love that at age 37, I can turn on Oprah and can remember exactly how I felt at age 6.
I remember being about five years old and dancing around my house to Barry Manilow. I loved the record jacket because he was sitting with a dog - a beagle. His shirt said I <3 dogs. I just loved it. After Barry, I became obsessed with Peter Frampton and the BeeGees. I listened to the Sgt. Pepper's album everyday and loved to look at the fold-out record jacket.
Peter Frampton is coming up next on Oprah, and I just can't wait... Gotta go! Show me the way, baby!
