*laughs*
Well as far as any twelve step recovery program goes, technically
admitting you have a problem is the first step to recovery. (My dad's an AA councellor, sorry

) Having said that I assume accepting you're mentally defunct *raises brow* probably goes hand-in-hand with the admission stage, so again technically I think you're both right! *laughs again*
But have no fear, this obsession or addiction does not warrant any such intervention programs - I don't need help, I'm happy with my obsession just the way it is! In fact, I'd like to say I wish I had the means to take it to a whole new level and actually do the paparrazzi thing and literally obsess in the physical realm but *shrug* I cannot and perhaps that's for the best. Besides, maybe that's taking idol-worship a little too far... I wouldn't hurt him mind you (no, not much) *wicked grin* but would even just like to be in the same concert hall as him at one point in my life and gloat in the fact that for one brief shining moment our lives interconnected before I slipped back into obscurity and he did his rock-star thing. *heavy sigh* Ho-hum. But I guess that's why they have meet-n-greets established huh? At least they as a band recognise our 'wish' to interract and that's very sweet of them. How many other contemporary bands can you say do that? Bless LP. *cheers*
Man, on a different tact, had the staff party at work last night and got
blind (as in blind-rotten-drunk) and let me tell you it's been AGES, years even, since I've been in such a state. Had fun, was all good (that I can remember) and I woke up drunk - (it's like midday here as I type this and I'm still a little inebriated! (sp?) I remember Nate (the head chef) pulled me up for a dance at some point and pulled me off the chair as I was protesting that I hadn't yet had enough to drink to do that, hurt my hip when I hit the floor (yes, embarrassing) but it's still sore now *oops!*) - and I have to go back to work in like 3 and a half hours so that's gonna be something...

Well it's a good thing I mainly work deserts, 'cause if I was on grill I'd be accidentally setting fire to the place or something stupid like that probably *laughs*
Oh well...
WB TWI! *huge hugs* Been ages since we caught up, but I
do relate to the absences (well, not school for me, obviously! But yeah, real life can get in the way sometimes... we all understand. Just good to see you around again... you've been missed. In fact, all our old CoBers have been missed! Maybe we can rally the troops again and spearhead this tidalwave of drool that so often used to saturate this place *looks guilty*
Well, let's initiate a dribble first.
Discovered another Rob fan-site that I hadn't seen before in my crawlings. This one's called Project-Rob (
http://project-rob.piranho.com/start.htm) and I just had a tour around. The site's German I think and features avatars, pics of him as a kid some of you may not have seen before (but most here have) and the usual stuff. Here's the home page screen;

Pic of him isn't the greatest but I just liked the phrase, thought it 'befit' this place, that's all.

This avatar is from that site too. Love his eyes in this one... OMFG! *drool*

And this one just screams 'smug'. Seen that expression a few times in the Frat Party DVD as I recall *laughs* Ahhh, the many splendid faces of Mr Bourdon! *droooooooooooooools excessively*
Okay outtie peoples. Gonna go get ready for work. It's raining here at the moment, I don't have a clothes dryer, so I have to go to the restaurant early and use theirs.

Fun-fun. Take care my friends, will catch up again real soon,
*Big Bourdie Bear Hugs*
