Wait. There are five of them?

I do believe my life is intrinsically linked to 'Nsync. Or maybe it's just because I talk about them frequently.

V is one of my best friends from HS. In fact, she's probably the only HS friend I keep in touch with. V is not interested in pop music or pop culture. At all.

About 6 weeks ago I took her to a Tuesday at Suede. Before I introduced her, I had to explain who Joey Fatone is.

V: 'Nsync?
J: Yes.
V: The group you like?
J: Yes.
V: So why is he here?
J: He's on Broadway in RENT.
V: Huh. Okay. If you say so.

That night at Suede, V met a guy named Justin and they have been dating ever since.

Tonight, when I was out with V, she mentioned that Justin gave her a CD from some guy named Justin Timberlake and isn't he in that group 'Nsync that I like.

*sigh*

J: Yes, he's in the group. (Proceeds to ramble on about the merits of Justin.)
V: So is he the one you like? With the hips?
J: No. That's JC.
V: So the other one is blond?
J: Which other one?
V: Well, there's Justin and JC. Is the other one blond?
J: There are five of them.
V: There are five of them?
J: Yes. Remember? You met Joey? Shook his hand and everything?
V: Oh yeah. But there are really five?
J: Yes. Trust me. I know.
V: Okay. If you say so.

I have a lot of work to do on this one. I really thought you had to live in a cave not to have at least heard of Justin Timberlake. "He dated Britney Spears? Really?" "Yes, V. Big break up. All over the magazines."

Though I do think it's cool that her new guy likes JRT. I bet he was actually at Suede b/c of Joey. Closeted little 'Nsync fan. :b
