[HPFGU-OTChatter] The Strangest Crushes Ever

[- Joy -]

I can't believe someone else had a crush on Kermit!  I was totally obsessed
for my entire childhood.  I had to watch the Muppet Babies every single
Saturday.   Who could resist that little froggy voice?  I remember the day
Jim Henson died... I must have been 5 or 6, and it was the first time I
really understood what dying was... I cried for hours.

When I was little I had a Kermit doll, and my parents were so afraid of what
would happen if it got lost that they bought a duplicate... One stayed
upstairs and one downstairs.  I was totally amazed, because whenever I went
from one floor to another, Kermit would be there before I was.  My parents
told me that he was just really fast, and being a gullible child, I believed
them (shut up!).  The day I saw the two together, I was traumatized.  My
quick thinking dad told me that that was Kermit's twin brother, Timrek.
Timrek was my beloved, and I even took him to college with me.

There's no explaining love, I guess. ; )
