Goodbye

Goodbye Michael Jackson. Farewell.

When I heard today that he died I was shocked. Although he turned out to be well, lets just say "odd" I still was sad. He was a part of my childhood. I LOVED him. Yes, I had a big crush on him. I could not stop listening to his music and watching Thriller. I also remember watching him in the "We are the World" video. I had this pink crop shirt that said "Pretty Young Thing" on it. When he died today it was like a part of my childhood died. Hey, no joke. Stop laughing.

One other thing that sticks out in my mind that I was forever looking at the album cover with him in all white. I noticed his one wrist. It had a wierd bone looking thing on it and I was fixated on trying to figure out what was wrong with that one wrist. Anyone else ever notice that?

Anyway, I guess I still have my memories of the original Michael Jackson. Pre-surgery and Pre-NeverNeverLand. Or whatever it was called.

Goodbye Mike (ya, we were on a first name basis back then). I'll miss ya Mike.


***Oh ya, in another note.....I guess Farrah Fawcett died today too. Her and I weren't as close.

I was sad too that Michael and Farrah died.. They were both a part of my youth. It just felt weird to have them both die on the same day. Michael was odd, but why wouldn't he be, he was a world famous star at 4 years old, he really had no childhood. And Farrah was so beautiful I was obsessed with her too, such beauty.. good bye to them both...
