-We had two rules growing up in my house: 1. If you're going to take a shower, do it with whomever you're dating so you don't waste water; and 2. If you buy one for yourself, buy six, because chances are everybody's going to want one. The first rule traumatized me because I used the bathroom right next to my parents' room, so I didn't date much, and the second one, well, I was the only one who followed it, so it wasn't exactly a two-way street. Needless to say, it occurred to me when I was old enough to make rules of my own that they should be fair and simple. Mine was, if the [[Bon Jovi]] video with Jon walking down the street singing "she don't even know my name" came on, I was to be notified at once. Since it was the only rule I had, I wanted strictest attention paid to its enforcement.

-Up until seeing Jon on the tube, I had spent most of my life locked in my bedroom, miserable about my raging acne and "friend" label with the guys at school. In those days if you didn't have a concave stomach while lying flat on your back at the beach (so you could see your pubic hair in your bathing-suit bottoms), you just weren't noticed. My dad's music had made me shy, almost repressed about my own anatomy, with his lyrics about ramming things up poop chutes and shooting too quick – this, from my dad! He was so open creatively that I was off in search of black turtleneck bathing suits with long sleeves. "[[Valley Girl]]," the song my father and I did together in 1982, made me feel like a sad zoo specimen. Going through puberty in front of the world on shows like [[wikipedia:Solid Gold (TV series)|Solid Gold]] and [[wikipedia:Merv Griffin|Merv Griffin]] only added to my self-consciousness. But Jon lifted me out of all this. I felt uninhibited, unbridled lust for him. My attention became focused on the love I felt coursing through my veins. Who cared if my legs touched at the top? That's when I started perusing magazines like [[wikipedia:Kerrang!Kerrang!]] and ''Circus for Clues'' to meeting my dream man. I was studying photos of him backstage at [[wikipedia:Ratt|Ratt]] shows and [[wikipedia:Mötley Crüe|Mötley Crüe]] gigs when it dawned on me. Start going to rock concerts! Hang out backstage!

As if in a dream, I approached him (very anti-the rules), introduced myself and stood there staring at his moon necklace, waiting for him to kiss me. Destiny! But he didn't get it. He looked around the room at the other girls, the ones whose legs didn't touch at the top. The spell didn't seem to be taking.

Or standing in front of a wind machine, dressed like a cross between a waitress and a hooker in red vinyl with a cherry in my mouth? Why wasn't I lucky enough to be a stripper (sorry, "dancer") standing on the hood of an expensive sports car in stilettos and a leopard-print bikini? Why wasn't I tawny kitaen? He'd want me then. I tried to get his attention back. "what sign are you?" I asked, trying to help him realize that what he was looking for was right under his perfect little nose. "pisces," he said politely while beginning to move on. The room was spinning now. Pisces? It can't be! Not at all good for a libra. I was devastated, ruined.

I won't disclose the horrifying details of the event, but I will say that later that night he was generous enough to let me sleep on the wet spot.
