the king of pop


if you knew me from the time i was about 12-15 years old then you knew of my obsession for all things michael jackson. i loved him, still do. the 60+ posters of him i had on my wall were what i was known for at my junior high, people even tried to take them down in disgust at my love for this man. his biography was like gold to me and no one had better talk bad to me concerning michael. i hoped and prayed to one day go to one of his concerts. i thought he was so handsome pre-bad album and wanted to name my first son michael to pay tribute to my dad and to my favorite pop star. like i said, i was obsessed.

i outgrew this obsession around my 9th grade year but MJ will forever and always hold a special place in my heart. i have literally had numerous phone calls today to see how i was taking the news. i know he was all sorts of crazy but for me he was the king. i am sad today because he is gone and didn't even get to have the comeback he deserved. 

you will be sorely missed by me.


RIP
michael joseph jackson
1958-2009

Time heals all wounds, K-dig. If he'd ever come to SLC I would have made it happen for you. Be strong!

Do you think we should check on Anke and see how she took the news?

honestly kennan... I remember how obsessed you were. I remember going to your house with Goldie and watching you dance just like him... I was so jealous.


With that being said, I am sorry for your loss.
