First Crush

10 September 2005, 11:25

Was thinking about this last night (this happens when you’re pregnant….. well, that’s my story…), going back to the annals of my childhood, pre-Husbandry, to dredge up who I thought I was going to marry when I was 6 or 7. Fortunately, I am cursed with a good memory, even with the trials of pregnancy brain and it was quite easy…

1. Bill Mumy from “Lost in Space” (late 60s’ – and no, I’m not that old, but it was the definitive TV show when I was a sprout in the 70’s). I. swore. to. god. I was going to marry Bill. And to be honest, I’ve kind of been attracted to ginger/blondey Cookies-&-Cream dudes ever since.

2. Erik Estrada from “ChIps” (or CHiPs, whatever…) (1977) He was so the man. “Airport ‘75” was my fave movie for years when I was 6ish.

3. George Harrison. My mum had a Hard Days Night LP with the most dreamy pic of George ever on the back cover. At least I think it was George… might have been one of the others…

4. Ike Eisenmann from “Escape from Witch Mountain” (1975). How I even remembered his name is scary in itself.

  1. Hehe Kinki,

    Showing my age:
    1. Johnny Depp (in those days of 21 Jumpstreet fame) – still dreamy now, really.
    2. Jonathon (sp?) Knight from New Kids on the Block. We all had a crush on one of ‘em didn’t we? Wasn’t that the point?

    Vanessa.

  2. Erik Estrada? Did you have some strange craving due to pregnancy and went to sleep on a full stomach of strangeness? There are probably just as many men out there who wanted to marry him also.

  3. hee hee. Believe it or not, my crush on Erik was quite, quite infamous in my household. Must have been those latino looks that brought me to my 7 year old knees…

    Hey, I cannot vouch for my own normality…
