Bieber

Yesterday I was feeling pretty sick so I slept and hung out on the couch catching up on DVR'ed Oprah shows. Jackson HATES Oprah so I have to watch them when I'm home by myself. I'm never home by myself unless I'm sick. Ugh. Vicious cycle. Anyway, I caught an Oprah where she had this teen singer, Justin Bieber, performing. I had heard of the kid in passing, but never paid much attention. Well, HELLO people he's so cute. I love his "Baby" song. I found it on YouTube and have been rocking out to it all afternoon in my office (with the door closed, of course). The kid is only 16- he looks like he is 12 to me- and is on like the level of the Beatles with girls fainting when he sings. Weirdos.

Anyway, I called Jackson to see if he'd want to go to lunch together today. He declined stating that he had already dined. I promptly let him go to get back to my jam session with Justin Bieber. He texted me to see why I hung up so quickly and our conversation went like this:

Jackson: "Why'd you hang up so quickly?"

Me: "Justin Bieber came on."

Jackson: "That better not be the truth!!!!"

Me: "Oh it is. Baby, baby, baby thought you'd always be mine!"

Me: "I make myself laugh."

Jackson: "About listening to Bieber?"

Me: "Yes, it is on repeat in my office."

Jackson: "I am feeling ill as in very, very sick."

Me: "Whatever. It makes me feel 10 years younger."

Jackson: "Don't you mean it makes you feel 10 years old?!!"

Me: Can't type because I'm cracking up

I love Jackson!

Update:

My sister felt strongly about this post and had the following random text conversation with me about it:

Kylie: "Justin Bieber? Really? He drives me nuts!"

Me: "He makes me feel young again."

Kylie: "I agree with Jackson on this one. Justin joked about Kim Kardashian being his girlfriend and she got death threats. Tweens are physco!!"

Me: "Ha! Classic! I love Kim. She's the prettiest person on earth, in my opinion."

Kylie: "She is gorgeous."

Me: "I know she is- so unfair. Anyway, Justin Bieber helps with my 'what am I doing with my life' midlife crisis."

Kylie: "Think how unfair it is for Khloe Kardashian! To have Kim as a sister! Kourtney Kardashian is adorable though. Khloe is, well, unfortunate."

Me: "Khloe is plenty fortunate with a huge ring on her finger and fat wallet. And Kourtney is old, but a super cute mini-Kim."

Kylie: "If you feel so old watch Sesame Street! Kourtney is only 30!"

Me: "I'm not going for that young. I just miss being a teenager."

Kylie: "Well Backstreet is back alright!"

Me: "Huh? What?"

Kylie: "They were around in your teens and *pause for 30-year-olds screaming in delight* they're back!! Use them, not Bieber."

Me: "You're too much."
