Girlhood Crushes - Crush #1, A Series of Many Posts

I would have to say my first crush that I can remember was Jim Rockford. Not James Garner, not James Garner as Maverick, not James Garner selling batteries by getting 'em knocked off his shoulders. It was - specifically - Jim Rockford. And his Bad Ass Car. Which was almost as cool as Baretta's. Who I did NOT have a crush on.

Now I had to be about 5 here. Maybe 6 tops. and I would RUN from the room every time my mom watched it because I was too embarrassed to be in the same room as him. Him on TV.

My husband finds it endearing that to this day I have to change the channel when a TV character says something stupid. "I'm so EMBARRASSED for her" I bleat. Or I cover my eyes and make him watch.



Now, in hindsight, I realize that my sister will find this crush rather obvious.

I had a crush on a tv character named JIM. With dark hair. Who's older. And a policeman.

Anyone? Anyone? Freud? Anyone?

My mothers boyfriend when I was four?
Oh, no one special. Just a guy named Jim. A brunette. Who was older. And a policeman.

Let me just get on with my bad ass electra complex.
