Yes, Yes I am!
This is a true story about sisters and two teenage crushes.
Melissa's Teenage Crush |
Sara's Teenage Crush |
This Tweet started it all.
(This is from Brian Thomas Littrell from the Backstreet Boys - Yes they are still around and yes they are a "boy band")
So I'm working on some Christmas songs with my family. :) wanted to know if my chirpsters would be interested in listening to them?? Chirp!
My phone alerts me of a text message. It is a tweet from my sister.
Mellers84: @brian_littrell omgggg yesssssss!! me and @sara091507 Greatly agree we need christmas songs from you in our lives!
I am very confused, what is going on? I hop on twitter to see the original tweet causing such a reaction from my sister.
I reply to my sister
@mellers84 @brian_littrell SOOO needed. Brian's voice singing Christmas Carols ... that makes me school girl giddy.
Well a twitter conversation continues about how this particular Backstreet Boy needs to release a Christmas CD and how marvelous that would be.
Then I find this tweet ... and this is where things get interesting.

RT @Yahtzee27: @ShawnMichaels_ I think you should check out @brian_littrell 's "Welcome Home" CD. I think you would like it. :) wow I like this chirp a lot!
I have no idea who Yahtzee27 is, but I do know who Shawn Michaels is!!!! My teenage crush, the one and only Heart Break Kid. I also know that Brian added "wow, I like this chirp a lot!" Which leads me to ask the question, "Is Brian Littrell a wrestling fan? Do Brian and Bailey practice 'sweet chin music' on each other and flying elbows?"
Back to my story ... I find Shawn Michaels through Brian Littrell, and my reaction is OH! You know I have to follow that!!! So I click follow on @shawnmichaels_
Oh but it doesn't stop there....
I then tweet:
"Ok @mellers84 how does this happen? Thru @brian_littrell I found @shawnmichaels_ You know I have to follow that!"
Another twitter conversation transpires about how this is just an odd way to find Shawn Michaels. Someone I would have never looked for on Twitter.
Well today I am still finding this rather humorous.
So I tweet two tweets... The first: I still find this hilarious I found @shawnmichaels_ thru @brian_littrell I understand the connection was about "WelcomeHome" still funny.

The second, to clear up any confusion why this if funny to me I tweet this. related: Those who don't know - @brian_littrell a @backstreetboys (best boyband EVER) @shawnmichaels_ professional wrestler (Rockers, HBK)
So I am going about my day as if nothing is different. Working, blogging, taking care of Kaits and Keith who is home sick today. My phone goes off, it's a twitter text message.
ShawnMichaels_: @sara091507 Great song!
What is that a tweet to me from Shawn Michaels??? Directly to me??? In reply to something I posted??? I hop on Twitter to investigate... sure enough! I geeked out. My teenage crush just tweeted me.
So what do I do, reply to HBK and then I text my sister, no reply. My sister is glued to her phone. Ugh. I call her, nothing. I need to talk to my sister! I send her a message on Twitter. Finally she gets back to me as I am going to put on her facebook in all caps WHERE IS MY SISTER WHEN I NEED HER! I delete this and type my status at SISTER! YOU ARE FOUND!
We go back and forth for a little bit about our childhood crushes and other silliness. Our next step is to get Tyson Ritter from All American Rejects to send a Tweet to Melissa.
What a fun afternoon!
Oh everyone needs a good Shaun Michaels reference now and again! Sings "I'm just a sexy boy(sexy boyyyyy) I'm not your boy toy (boy toyyyyy)" hehehe
