Girl Under Glass
My girl crush  

Click to view large size How cool is this? Shirley Manson is still my girl crush, even after all these years! I used to idolize and worship her in my early twenties. I wanted to be her and went to great lengths to look like and emulate her. I had every album and b-side that Garbage ever made. I even won a contest on the radio by guessing 3-second song clips. The DJs were utterly amazed that I knew them all, because they made it as hard as possible by putting in rare b-sides. The prize? I got to meet them all in person! GO ME! When I met Shirley, she told me I smelled good and I swear, I gloated for years about that shit. SHIRLEY MANSON TOLD ME I SMELLED GOOD! Na-nee-na-nee-boo-boo! When I got older, I got over it and sort of lost touch with that whole realm - the other fans, the Shirley website I used to run back in the day (pinktrash.nu). Heh, that makes me chuckle in a sort of embarassed used-to-be-so-obsessed-actually-ran-a-website-devoted-to-this-person kind of way. Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles? What is this frickin’ crap?! This is SO something lame that The Husband would watch and I would guffaw at. But now? With Shirley in it? I’m all over it like a donkey on a waffle! :D

    Hahaha, I remember when that happened. You were freeeaaakin’ out with excitement, as I was when I got to meet them. It’s funny how lame it seems now when we were so obsessed with bands, especially Garbage. I still love music to death, but not quite to that extent. :D

    Congratulations on the newest addition to your family. I still think of you often!
