		<description>Hi guys!!  I can not believe you are touring again!!  For the past month I have been thinking of my high school years and my girlfriends.  All our memories revolve around the five of you!!  We have not spoken in about 15 years now.  And because you have decided to get back together we've all gotten in touch again.  THANK YOU!!  Life is so busy, and you gave me the desire to re-visit the best days of my life!!  I am soooo looking forward to our time together in Cleveland!! I can't wait!!  Love Summertime!!

		<description>Hey Jonathan,

I do not know if anything out of my life would interest you, so I am just typing it up here now, hoping that it does not bore you.

Well, I have just bought a "little" town house in Seattle and my household stuff has just arrived not too long ago. So I have spent all of my July 4th unwrapping, washing clothes and all sorts of fabrics, cleaning dishes ect., builing up furniture, contacting companies overseas for my job ( which is nerve- wrecking at times! )and entertaining my puppy - a 4 month old black Lab named Butterball - who was constantly trying to get any of my shoes. I decided at the end to jump through the spinklers with him... wet dog , wet dog !! I love it when dogs go nuts after they had a shower or a bath even, when they run through the house as if something bit them.... Butterball is actually the first dog of mine which is afraid of water ( excluding sprinklers ). I used to have a German Shepard dog and a Siberian Husky before, and both loved to take a swim in the nearby Lake of my hometown. What kind of a dog do you have now ? SORRY, I am a complete dog-person !!! I am still expecting one more pet to come over from europe ...THAAANK YOU PET - AIR !!! My favorite part of the day is in the evenings, when I can sit on my sofa and he comes up to me, pushing my arm like if he'd say " Belly rub , please. "... 
About nieces and nephews: OMG! I've been through "Bear in the big blue house" - sleepovers. "Harry Potter" - Meetings ( TOP SECRET !! ), the CARS in my driveway... oh yeah, and Transformers all over the Interstate, lost red Clifford - the plushed toy -  at the Library ( took me ca. an hour to find him again )
Rightnow, my youngest nephew, Jason, is totally into "Thomas" and always asks me if I brought him a choo-choo twain while my niece does the flips over " Hannah Montana " and " Highschool Musical " - Oh my gosh, that is so cool... glitter here and glitter there... Then I hear : " Aunt Steffie, can we go shopping , to the Mall, pleeeease. That would be so awesome !! "
But the MOST AWESOME THING about having nieces and nephews is that you get to spoil them, while Mommy and Daddy have to keep up and teach them all the rules !!</description>

		<description>hey geogeous man,  

I am hoping by now at least a little of your smile is back - come on sexy man it is a beautiful smile so if it is not still cool but I am hoping it is back soon.   Anyway, from what I see the listening party seemed like it went so awesome and now everything is on its way and people are already loving the music I know it.   Anyway this note is just a little one - I know very strange for me since I usually write novels.   Just like Adrienne who blogged right above me wrote - this is like Christmas morning for a bunch of us girls - the first time we can get messages to you.    Come on you are talking to the girl that sent you 9 Valentines Day cards when I was 20 and I first started having the star crush (okay fine I agree 9 was a little bit much, but I always believed in go big or go home so I just went big lol.)  For the record, your mom sent me the coolest thank you note, I loved it and I got a little slip for your autograph so it was worth the 9 Valentines.   Okay that done and I know I made you smile and laugh I just know it.   It is my little goal with these little blogs that I know you will read probably one day to make you smile each time I do them.

Okay I'm done for the night gotta get to sleep have work and I should not be up on my laptop at 1:30am blogging to you no matter how much I love u.   Anyway my honey, Happy Monday, remember to relax and how much I love your smile and those beautiful eyes too.    Remember to take yourself, take your vitamins and eat well and get a lot of rest.   Also most important remember to enjoy every moment of this.    Talk to u soon, that is like so cool that I can say I can blog u soon just had to say that lol.   Anyway luv u bunches and bunches.   

luv

		<description>Jonathan,
I'm writing to you again to say "hello". Since "someone", not gonna name any names, doesnt have a myspace, hahahaha, I guess this is the only round about way to get a message to you. I hope things are going well in rehearsal. And you are getting rest and taking care of yourself! Iced Coffee does help tho! :) I hope I get the chance to meet you in November in Ft Lauderdale, its taking every penny I've got, but its my dream to see you, and I'm gonna make it happen. Well, I've got to go...several things to do before Monday morning is here :) All my love to you Jonathan

		<description>hey favorite sweetie,

Just another note making sure you remember to have fun, you know when I have not seen lately in the pictures and you tube videos I have seen lately you guys - your smile.   At the beginning I saw that beautiful smile all the time, now not so much.  It is cool because you are probably just tired and busy but since I am someone who my own little cousins call a worrywart, my goddaughter calls me all the time when I tell her to be careful about things, anyway being the worrier that I instictively am, I had to worry when I realized I was not seeing that.   

Now it is really cool if that is not happening because you are tired or the schedule is getting to you or the camera caught you at the wrong time - totally cool with that.   However I figured if with everything possibly getting close and the album date coming nearer - it could be something else.  So I figured I could speak for at least me but I think most of us that have posted in this blog.  Thank you for coming back and for doing this for us, we love you for it.   We also know how hard it must be for you and I can think speak for most of us stating we understand.  For me I get it totally, I just left my last job because I could not stop the panic attacks that I got from it, and I know them from my mom - hell I spent my first few years thinking when we went to Church on Sunday, our seat was always on the outside because I usually always with my mom and she could not go inside because of her being claustophobic and the panic attacks she always dealt with.  She still can't really go inside and when she has to go inside for Communion, when she comes back I have to hold her hand to stop her from shaking.   Okay I'm going off topic as usual and talking about myself, anyway I and I would say a lot of us understand and know what you are dealing with and we are right there for you and we love everyday more for coming back and doing this amazing joy ride a second time.    

So as much as I love your beautiful smile which I adore by the way in case I have not mentioned it lately,   I'm totally cool not seeing it, I just hope I will get to see it again possibly sometime soon.   Until then relax everything is going to be cool and people are going to love the album I can just feel it.   My 12 and 11 year old girl cousins love Summertime they actually did not believe me that it was you guys - they just knew they loved the song when they heard it in my phone.   For them to get a I like that song when you are not sung by the Jonas Brothers or Miley Cyrus is huge.  Ask Danny he has daughters, he will back me up on that one lol.  I guess I just worry too much about you, I know worrying about something you have never met slightly weird however you have been my far away star sweetie for 20 years so I figure I have priveleges to worry about you lol.     

Okay hopefully if you needed to feel better I at least made you feel a little better I gave it a good shot lol.   I know I should not worry, you have four great guys that watch out for you but I worry anyway it is part of who I am so just something you have to deal with from time to time.    Until then, be careful, make sure you get enough rest and eat right and all.    Enjoy yourself and have fun and don't work hard.   Have fun with this it is a dream for us and you to have a second go round and thank you again for coming back to us and letting us love you again.   Talk to ya soon hope the rehearssal show went great luv ya.

		<description>Dear Jonathan,
being 29 and it's my first time writing to anyone "famous" - weird feeling. Anyway, I just wanted to tell you that recently, after watching all those interviews with you on the net, I realized that you have an amazing personality.     Of course, there is the music thing - although to be honest I am not a huge fan today as I used to be back then - and also you are a handsome man but for me    thoughts and personality are the most important. It's a pity that guys like you are hard to find - I would love to have a nice conversation with a man, for a change :)
Take care and enjoy your time!
Cheers from Hungary,
R.</description>

		<description>Jonathan,

I love you so much. I'm quite sure you don't read all or perhaps any of our responses, but I would like to imagine that you do. There is so much honesty within every word that you right. You don't right much, but it's all so true and so honest. It's absolutely beautiful. 
I hope I don't sound like some crazy girl, but some times in my imaginations I get to meet you in person and go on one date and see how things go from there. 
I believe if I can't get things in the real world then I might as well get them in some other world, like the imaginary world. This mentality has helped me get through some rough times in my life. I wish you all the best in your supper busy schedule. 
Hope to see you on a second date sometime soon ;)

Cheers,
Tara</description>

		<description>HI Jon, 
I'll pinch you anytime! LOL!!
It's like a dream for all of us. It's the only shining light of my life these days since my dad was diagnozed with cancer last Thanksgiving. NKOTB has always been in my heart since day 1. For the past 14 years since your departure, I would look you all up on the web at least once a year to be updated on your whereabouts. I always found something through fan websites. I was so excited when I discovered the original nkotb.com and would visit it often because that site made NKOTB come to life for me. It felt like entering a time machine. Then a few years later it disappeared which made me feel like NKOTB was history. My heart sank like it did when NKOTB disbanded. Lat year, when the fan site came back up, I was thrilled. Soon after the rumors began and then NKOTB.com was revived by NKOTB!!!!! The rest as you know is history in the making!!! I am sooooo thrilled to be around to witness a second time. THANK YOU ALL AGAIN! Especially YOU Jonathan. I know you have overcome alot to be here and I know I speak for all the diehard fans when I say, WE SOO APPRECIATE YOU for doing it. NKOTB would not be NKOTB without YOU. I hope I get to meet you on the road. I'll be at the Borgata Nov 7 meet and greet God willing.
LOVE, 
ROMA (NYC)</description>

		<description>The better way to introduce myself at this blog it's whit a present for you, one of my favourite poem:
 
 It's like the Light-
 A fashionless Delight-
 It's like the Bee-
 A dateless-Melody-

 It's like the Woods-
 Private-Like the Breeze-
 Phraseless-yet it stirs
 The proudest Trees-

 It's like the Morning-
 Best-when it's done-
 And the Everlasting Clocks-
 Chime-Noon!

 enjoy it xxx</description>

		<description>Jon,

I wanted to say thank you personally to you for coming back to the band.  I know you were hesitant at the time to join again.  But that month of March 2008 when i heard the group was back it helped me out so much, spiritually.   Both my children were taken from me by the state of Missouri due to there lack of believing in the truth.  My then two month old daughter broke 4 back ribs when her brother then 13 months fell on top of her in a bouncy seat.   Anyways now you see my hard time and just knowing you came back taught me several things   1.)  don't walk by sight but by faith. By sight it always looked as if this group would not come back but you proved us wrong.  2.) What's impossible for man is possible for God.  and 3.) All things work for the good for those that wait upon the Lord!  I know it may be weird but that's what i got a message of when you all joined back.  And God sees how you helped me and will reward you for it !    I'm praying for you all.

		<description>Hi John.
This is incredible, i can't believe. Never, even in my better dreams, never hope that one was giving a reunion after so many years. I really lost de ilusion after the album "face the music". But, you give me a nice sorprise, like you did then i listen the single "If you go away", back then in ¿1995?.
Sorry for my english, i'm not so good in your language. I'm from Chile, in the end of sudamerica, and my mother language is spanish. For write this I help myself with a translator in line, but it is not very good.
Only I want to wish luck to you and the guys in this new challenge and that you know that for my, as thousands of fans, your not only marked an epoch, you prop they helped us with your music in our difficult moments, gave to us breath and happiness with your letters and inspired us to want to achieve our dreams, though our reality was not accompanying us.
Thank you for meeting again and give us a little more of you.
With love, a fan.
Alicia.</description>

		<description>happy monday to my sweet Jonathan,

Hey sweetie!!!!!   Happy Monday okay for me it is almost Tuesday but if you are still on the West Coast you still have a few more hours of Monday.   Sorry I did not wish you a Happy Monday earlier - Monday are not my best days lol - I am not one of those looking forward to getting into the work week girls - I am a girl that loves Saturday and Sunday so they can sleep later lol.   Not a lot later just a little I swear.   Anyway, hope my sweetie's weekend was great and that you are having fun in rehearsals.    My day was busy as crap and tomorrow it is going to be worse - getting provider contracts and amendments together let me tell you fun city in my job - only kidding I really do love it lol.    I am hoping my aunt and uncle bring one of my many buddies for dinner tomorrow when they come - so hoping I miss my buddies so much - I know it sounds strange that I miss a house with 7 kids the oldest being 14 1/2 and the baby being 1 but I am lost without seeing them and we have not been able to get there for weeks so it is like I want my babies lol.   I still have a lot more though - I am one of those people that kids get comfortable around right away - my mom calls me the pied piper lol - when I am coming down the block from work - all the kids on my block kiss and hug me when they see me and tell me how their day is - it is true I have always been that way - I get it from my dad - he was the same way as me.  Mom is actually too.    She can never understand how so many people stop her and say how she touched their life and when she was dignosed with cancer they had the car pool set up so fast to get her to chemo and radiation.   All she sees is she is herself just like all I see is that I am myself and you don't realize how much that touches people or as my friend Chrissy says her 2 boys they have lived across the street their whole life - Vinnie is my sweetie he is 11 and my heart so adorable and always friendly - Mikey is 3 he is my shy buddy and usually he does not kiss and hug people when you come in and talks to them - now with me it just started this summer always give me a kiss and if we are like going into something like my nephews Christening a month ago - he takes my hand - his grandmother says a lot of family member he does not do that but now he is my buddy - my shy boy I call him lol.    

Okay I am going on too much again like always I hope I at least entertain you and keep your mind off of things when you want to relax with my rambling - can you post a new blog so I have a new one to rant in - just when you get a minute thanks.   Anyway - be careful, take care of yourself, don't work too hard and enjoy every moment of this second roller coaster ride.   Talk to you soon.

Luv ya lots

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>happy monday to my sweet Jonathan,</p>
<p>Hey sweetie!!!!!   Happy Monday okay for me it is almost Tuesday but if you are still on the West Coast you still have a few more hours of Monday.   Sorry I did not wish you a Happy Monday earlier - Monday are not my best days lol - I am not one of those looking forward to getting into the work week girls - I am a girl that loves Saturday and Sunday so they can sleep later lol.   Not a lot later just a little I swear.   Anyway, hope my sweetie&#8217;s weekend was great and that you are having fun in rehearsals.    My day was busy as crap and tomorrow it is going to be worse - getting provider contracts and amendments together let me tell you fun city in my job - only kidding I really do love it lol.    I am hoping my aunt and uncle bring one of my many buddies for dinner tomorrow when they come - so hoping I miss my buddies so much - I know it sounds strange that I miss a house with 7 kids the oldest being 14 1/2 and the baby being 1 but I am lost without seeing them and we have not been able to get there for weeks so it is like I want my babies lol.   I still have a lot more though - I am one of those people that kids get comfortable around right away - my mom calls me the pied piper lol - when I am coming down the block from work - all the kids on my block kiss and hug me when they see me and tell me how their day is - it is true I have always been that way - I get it from my dad - he was the same way as me.  Mom is actually too.    She can never understand how so many people stop her and say how she touched their life and when she was dignosed with cancer they had the car pool set up so fast to get her to chemo and radiation.   All she sees is she is herself just like all I see is that I am myself and you don&#8217;t realize how much that touches people or as my friend Chrissy says her 2 boys they have lived across the street their whole life - Vinnie is my sweetie he is 11 and my heart so adorable and always friendly - Mikey is 3 he is my shy buddy and usually he does not kiss and hug people when you come in and talks to them - now with me it just started this summer always give me a kiss and if we are like going into something like my nephews Christening a month ago - he takes my hand - his grandmother says a lot of family member he does not do that but now he is my buddy - my shy boy I call him lol.    </p>

		<description>Hi Jonathan,

It's great to see you writing! Sorry, I haven't written in a while, I've been busy with life. Things are really starting to roll for you boys, so hang on as it's going to be quite a ride!!! I am still trying to save money to see you here in Canada, either in Toronto, or Montreal. Seeing as I live in Ottawa, I have to be able to get there. You guys may want to put Ottawa on your map of dates during your tour. I know that you can't go to every city in the world, but it was worth asking. Hope you had a great July 4th. Hope you had lots of fun with your niece and nephew, enjoy them while they are young! Kids are great, I know I have 4 of them, all girls!! I hope you get the time to read these, and maybe respond to some of them, there are a lot of us fans out here. Again, I am so happy the you guys have come back, thinking of you brings butterflies to my stomach. Well let the Good Times Roll!!!!! God Bless.

Cheers!

		<description>I'm so happy to hear you guys are back together!  It's been almost 20 years since my friend and I met you.  We talked to you for about an hour in the lobby of the Pittsburgh Hilton one night and we thought it would be the best  20th anniversary present for us if you guys could come back to the 'Burgh on your tour!  Take care and we hope to see you soon!

		<description>Hey Jon,

Yes, Your dream is very real and I'm so happy to be sharing it with you. It is so cool when babies say HI and I'm glad it made you happy and your niece will start talking a lot more very soon. I hope you get enough rest and eat right. I'm so glad you guys are back together. Is this a permanent thing or is this just a reunion and after this tour are you going your separate ways again and if you are, will you be staying with them?

		<description>Happy Friday to the hottest man on the planet at least in my eyes forever!!!!!!   Figured since you are in rehearsal you may be tired and needed a little friday pick me up so I figured it was about time I reminded you how truly hot you were.   Okay enough with that stuff hope your week was great and you are getting a little bit of rest anyway and that you have been able to check in with your family and know that everyone is good and all - I know you are a little bit like me in that way and we are exactly the same way in that way so I hope everyone is doing good and all that.   

Me I'm doing good tired a little I love the idea that I changed my job because it was so time to do it but getting used to something new as exciting as it is - it is still so challenging plus I have not been in a corporate environment for over 5 years - I have been the gym manager for five years still I love every moment of this - I like this environment so much better and you get so much more security which is so important.

Other than that tomorrow is cleaning day here ugh hate that and doing shopping and stuff that I can't do during the week it is supposed to be like 96 and since I don't drive (I know it is bad I never ever learned and now at 40 the chances of it happening are looking slimmer daily kind of like my chances of ever finding Mr. Right and even getting married same chances lol)   Anyway I am talking too much lol and you are busy you have a tour and everything to prepare for.   

So my sweet baby - be good and be careful -- take care of yourself make sure you are getting rest and eating right and everything talk to ya soon keep enjoying all of this and the second time around with it.   

Love 
Kelly

		<description>Jonathan, I have been a long time fan.  You have ALWAYS been my favorite. I could swear back in the day I had 2nd row and you waved to me! One of my favorite memories from childhood. I would have killed for the chance to be able to write to you this way back then. I love you and the rest of the guys. This is amazing. Who would have thunk? My friends and I are so much looking forward to the concert in Chicago. Can't wait to jam to some old tunes! New ones to!!! Thanks for the comeback!</description>

		<description>Hi Jon hope u are not working so hard. Hope everything is well and not too stressful for ya! Thank Joey for the update, I've been curious about the tails that some of you had in your old videos, what happen to them? and if you remember...did any of you keep them for memories. The reason i ask is because all of my uncles use to have them and they use to ask us nieces to braid them and comb them out for them. Kind of weird i know but like my instructers say "there is never a stupid question". Bye the way, keep having fun and don't over work yourselfs and be sure to keep us updated and see ya in Colorado soon!

		<description>Children are the neatest and most fascinating people. My husband had alot of those I miss the kids moments, when he was deployed to Iraq. BTW, Pinch. You're awake. It's a whirlwind I'm sure, glad to see you guys up and running again.

		<description>Hi Jonathan, 

I wanted to drop by and say hi, hoping you are having a beautiful day today. I miss the nkotb.com board a bit...it was nice to catch up with all the up-to-the-minute news! Anyway, the other day I heard you on that German radio station (at 3AM my time) and I remembered reading somewhere about you (or was it Donnie? - shakes head - I can't remember if I read it on your blog comments or Donnie's) receiving a green envelope in Germany...

What was in it? (only tell us if it is not private, of course) But I was just so intrigued! Sorry if I am being so nosy. Have you read/seen it? 

I hope your mini-vacation went well and that; however short, you had a nice time. 

If you ever want to email me, my email is: blockheads4eva@hotmail.com 
It would be a thrill to hear from you!

Sending you love and hugs from Miami,

		<description>Hey Jonathan!

The other night we in the NKOTBCHAT.COM were chatting and listening to the interview you guys had on Bayern3!  We were up the night before because we thought it was then, and we e-mailed them to ask if we had the right day, but alas, we did not!  :D  It's ok though, the were nice enough to tell us it was the next day around the same time, so we stayed up late that next night and got to hear the interview!  They even read my e-mail on the air!  It was exciting!  We kinda flooded their station with e-mail sending our love to you and the other guys!  We asked that they let you all know we in the States were listening to show our support for ya'll!  It sounded really fun even if they had you singing the lyrics to a song that wasn't yours!  LOL  That was priceless!  Anyway, I can't wait for you guys to come back home! I am so excited I'm practically bursting!  I won't until ya'll come down to San Antonio!  If you ever feel the need to chat or talk, look for me in the chat room above or e-mail me: jacquelynsaxena@sbcglobal.net  

Oh yeah, before I forget.....I kinda had a bit of nostalgia and sent you a letter in the mail in care of the record company....I didn't think it appropriate to send it to your home. (I am really blushing now and will now end this message!)

Take care and have a safe flight home!

Lots of love!

		<description>Hi Jon!

Hope you had a great week. I see that it is now morning in Germany. I'm in Colorado and it's 2:30 am. Yes I'm still awake, I was just doing some research for my dad. He asked me to type out a letter for him and translate it in Spanish writing. Since, Spanish is one of my majors' I thought it would give me some practice. 

How is the weather? Is it still cold? Today it was another hot day! It was around 103 degrees. I had today off from work and i visited my parents at their ranch. This weekend is our annual bazzar and so my parents were going to go. Not me, I had a lot to do. I was able to see my niece and she always brings me happiness. She is learning to go to the potty and she is not yet 2 years old. I know that you are close to your family, hope they are all doing fine.

Bye the way, i have been trying to read more about you but it looks like you are a very private person, which is perfectly fine, I am the same way. I used to be very shy and quiet, but now I've grown out of that just a bit. It would be nice to hear from you and how your holiday went on the 4th of July! I know that you are very busy and so am I, but if you need talk, or need someone to just listen, e-mail me at mtzfamily@bresnan.net! 

Talk to you later and stay safe and enjoy your stay in Germany!

		<description>Happy weekend to my favorite guys and to my sweetie,

Hi honey wanted to wish you guys a happy weekend and remind you to take care of yourself and not work too hard - eat right get lots of sleep you know the usual stuff lol.    God no wonder people usually say I am like a mother-sister to them I morph right into my mom in an instant - it is just who I am, I have always been like this forever lol.     

Anyway, Jonathan my sweetie hope you are enjoying Germany and having fun.  I know you are missing your family - I know that feeling all too well - I am two hours away from the biggest group of my favorite buddies - I have lots of them with my family but the biggest group of my munchkins live in NJ and me being in Brooklyn I am like hours away from my NJ cousins.   

Anyway, yesterday because I had sent one of them a gift I had promised them and she received it yesterday so I get a message from Kealy the three year old - she is sooo cute very upset because she got my voicemail and it was not Kekkie and she did not like the idea of leaving a message lol.    Anyway I call at 5 when I get out of work and she tells me all about her day lol and then she says because I had sent her a Princess Laptop - she fell in love when I gave it to another one of our cousins for her birthday so we had to get it for her too.   How she always wanted this toy forever lol, then she breaks my heart when she asks if I can come later she wants to show me something on the computer, I hate it when I have to remind her that I don't live near her and I can't just come.  She is fine after I say it but my heart breaks each time lol.

Then I have to speak to some of the other 7 - the only boy Michael he is 6 is getting picked on by his 8 1/2 year old sister Dana.   Dana is upset because the oldest Ashley will not share his Jonas Brothers DVD with her lol.  I usually get everyone but the older three were not home yesterday.   

I figured that in every way a little bit since I was 20 we have kind of been alike when i read something about you I was like that is weird I think like that too lol.  So talking and hearing stories about them always makes me feel better and secure and happy so if you do get nervous and we both love kids and all I can share them with you.

Okay you are busy - luv ya enjoy Germany be careful and take care enjoy your weekend luv ya lots
