November...
...I'll give thanks that you belong to me
There is NOTHING quite like a JB-and-Rich-sharing-the-mic picture to put a smile on my face. I love how they aren't afraid to get up in each other's faces like that.
I believe we're all a bit thankful for the joy these men have brought us over the years.
I am thankful for so many memories that were either the direct result of the boys, or enhanced by their music.
I'm thankful for the friends I have made through the shared love of the band. Men and women I wouldn't have known had I never fallen in love with their music.
I'm thankful for Mr. Hath's tolerance in my obsession with most things Jovi :o) He really doesn't get it, but tries to accept that I get it, and tries to let me alone with it.
If I'm allowed to be shallow and selfish for a moment, I must admit, I'm thankful for the lusty thoughts these guys have put in my head that have translated into stories that I've been lucky enough to share with you. They've opened up a font of creativity I didn't know I had in me. As I write this in September, I have started the next step in my writing life, and am working on an erotic short for publication. I NEVER would have even considered this had it not been for these men coming into my life, and for the support and guidance from you, my dear readers.
My very first Jovi concert (HAND Tour, Foxboro), brought me closer to my sister-in-law than we had ever been before.
My stops along the Lost Highway (Newark, Uncasville, Boston, Central Park) brought so many new people into my life! Mary, who I met at the train station on the way from Boston to Newark; Willow, Fiction Mistress, Big Apple Jovi Girl, Trish, and a whole bunch more in Boston (not to mention the best pizza ever); Denver with the kick-ass denim jacket along with Jodi and her lovely husband at CP... it's just amazing. And those are just the folks I've met in person at shows! We gathered more than 50 fans at Chicky and Pete's in February, and I met so many people, got to spend some quality time with Stephanie and TaraLeigh. I cyber-met Terri and Mys who I've spoken to on the phone more times than I can count; and so many more, I'd hurt feelings if I tried to list them all out and forgot anyone
And those are only the Jovi-related things I have to be thankful for.
So yeah, I'm thankful they belong to me and to you. That we share a love for the best damned band I've ever seen.

I'm so lucky to have you in mylife too, Hath.
The fanfictionistas became a wonderful part of my life. Hopefully...when I see you @ the next show I don't cripple you. Lol
Guess you should put some1 between us, huh?
;)
From the first time I ever wrote you and email to our first phone call and the resulting PayPal transactions, from you teaching me the difference between what is real and what is not in an ongoing fan fic story (ok, I knew MOST things) to the minute I walked into the lobby of that hotel in Boston and felt like I was seeing my long lost college roomie for the first time, I thank the gods of rock & roll for bringing you into my life and for being my friend. Being a fictionista, regardless of my long lapses in the fiction part of that title, has given me a group of girls whom I love as sisters. It seems like it has been forever that we have known each other. We’ve had the chance to grow our friendship far past our love for the Brothers Jovi and I am thankful and honored to be able to call you friend.
