Wow! OK--I really, really am trying to get a schedule going. I'm so messed up with xanga! I wasn't even gettng my subscription digest for awhile for some reason...
I will get a schedule, I will get a schedule...
So, anyway...I'm in a Blythe Flickr group (well, I'm in gazillions, but anyway...), and the theme this week was Michael Jackson...so I'll repost what I did over there, over here...
And next week I will write myself a schedule and try to catch up with everyone here!
Roisin Gladys: Hi, everyone! Ever since Michael Jackson died, Mom has been reminiscing about her youth. She's told us about when she was in kindergarten and Michael was on "Free to be You & Me" (sounds like some funny hippie show to us!). She remembers the Jackson 5 show on TV, too!
She remembers skating to all of Michael Jackson's songs when she was a roller rink diva in junior high! Even tho she was already a rockabilly punkette at that time, she had to admit that Michael had some good songs...
She also remembers running home from school when she was a freshman to watch the MTV premiere of "Thriller," and she remembers watching the Apollo TV special where Michael first moonwalked. Wow!
So, Mom says that no matter what kind of music you like, you have to admit that Michael Jackson made pop music fun, and he was a great and amazingly talented performer.
In honor of Michael, I borrowed one of Mom's white socks to wear as a dress (she says he always wore white socks so you would watch his feet when he danced!). I'm also wearing one of my stock gloves on my left hand, and my little chimp friend wanted to pose, too.
All of us girls--big girls and petites--send our love to you, Michael, and we hope you have found peace.
