Kurt’s Blog: My Son Has His First Crush

Well, it’s happening…my 2 year old son Dexter has his first crush…and she is…..Jessie from Toy Story.

He hearts her. It’s rare now that we go somewhere without Jessie in tow…and yes, we’ve even caught him saying “I love you Jessie”.

We have Toy Story wall stickers in his room, and of course, Jessie is his favorite. So much so, that when he hit his head on his bed, instead of getting a kiss from me, he went to his mama first…and then went over to the wall, put his head up against the wall where the Jessie sticker was, and said “Jessie make it better”.

Jessie comes with us to soccer…she’ll probably come with us to the zoo as well today.

I don’t remember who my first crush was…obviously, at least, not at the age of 2. I remember having a thing for Wonder Woman (Lynda Carter)…but I can’t recall anything earlier than that. Once I was 10…I remember…it was Elle Macpherson.

Who was your first crush?

How Are We Supposed To Dress This Week?

Shorts & t-shirts today….and then what…wintry mix again this week? I’ve already put away all winter things….and good luck getting the kids back into their winter coats now that they’ve discovered the freedom & moveability of spring fleece coats!!

This Can’t Be a Good Sign

Red Bull doesn’t seem to be having any effect on me anymore…have I had too much? Is my body now immune to its power? I sure hope not! Maybe, I just have to have more?

 

LL Cool J

LL Cool J is great, and has a new album out today “Authentic”. It sounds weird, it has a collaboration with Eddie Van Halen, who I’m surprised was sober enough to pick up a guitar.

Top 5 LL Cool J Songs

1. Mama Said Knock You Out

2. Goin’ Back to Cali

3. Milky Cereal

4. I Need Love

5. Big Ole’ Butt

 

Flashback!

The Spin Doctors have a new album out today…what time is it? 4:30. (If you owned “Pockets Full of Kryptonite”, you got that reference)

AWESOME is as AWESOME does
