8:30am, turned on the MP3 player and 94.7 was playing THIS IS IT. Made me jump. Maybe I can keep my emotions in check. I have avoided listening to it since the other night. The guitar sounds like something old Jacksons-Tito-ish. Maybe something off Destiny. I am afraid. I’ve been all excited to see this movie and I know I’m gonna have a hard time. Might as well bring a box of Kleenex. Paul Anka just got over like a fat rat. Man if he ain’t lucky that he co-wrote the song. THIS IS IT/Never Heard reminds me of a particular Jacksons song. I can’t quite put my finger on it right now, but its coming. As so as I heard it I was like THIS AIN’T FINISHED! It’s raggedy for Mike release standards. He ain’t even singing all of the words. Classic Dr. Dre produced song…for that matter, the best song Teddy Riley has been attached to…NO DIGGITY. There’s no way this song can come on and you not just fall into the groove.
Why is Monica getting a reality show? This is officially stupid. If another MF comes out spreading all of their business in the streets I’m gonna scream.
Sunday was a good day. TTW practice went well. We had about 40 people show up and they were really fast learners. I think one day we are going to cause an accident at the corner of Huston and Hazeltine. Cars stop or slow down at the intersection when it’s not warranted to watch us. I hope I can fit into the bridesmaid dress from Nene’s wedding. It will be my TTW Zombie outfit. Went on an adventure to find some sheet music for Wednesday’s voice lesson. Hit up Baxter Northup Music in Sherman Oaks. I got Alfie, Summertime, Always On My Mind (the Willie Nelson version), Blue Skies, and let me tell you…the Blue Skies sheet music had a Shattinger’s Music stamp. Shattinger’s is the music store in St. Louis by Soulard. Small World! I also bought an Ella Fitzgerald song book. AND my Bonus…ENJOY YOURSELF by The Jacksons! Don’t plan on using it , but it’s my first piece of sheet music in my collection. It was only $9.95. I miss doing cool stuff. I hope Wednesday’s lesson goes well.
I acquired a new picture of Mike circa 1977 in London rehearsing for some show. I am going to pull on that visual for my book. I have been on book writing hiatus for a minute…hopefully the mod hits me some time soon.
Two cool thing I saw at Guitar Center and must buy. The song books of Quincy Jones and Stevie Wonder. You can get so much bang for your buck with those.
Hey, I like that Brian McKnight Show!

If I had to date a cast member of South Park it would be Kyle or Stan. They’re level headed. Kenny, I have never seen his face. That cloak of mystery doesn’t work for me.
Why do things happen the way that they do…even through indecision. I was conflicted over whether or not to go to Sonic. I give in and go because I have a coupon. I pull up and they are playing You Rock My World…then the DJ announces non-stop Michael Jackson. And then here comes Don’t Stop Til You Get Enough and that is where I am at at 8:23pm on Thursday October 16, 2009. And now…You Are Not Alone. This song reminds me of my tears the first time I heard THIS IS IT. Seriously, why do people go out of their way to hate on others? Practice the old adage…if you have nothing good to say don’t say nothing at all…especially when no one asked you shit. The Caucasoids!

It’s like no matter where I go its just hitting me in the face. I have black eyes, swollen cheeks, and a busted lip. I was at CVS and they had posters on sale for $7.49. It was that gay photo shoot around the time of Victory. His hair was fat, yet stringy. The box the posters were in ad a postered outside and he was juts looking at me. All I saw was his face and 1958-2009.
I saw some dude who looks like Kevin Frazier from Entertainment Tonight.
I totally for got about the blue armband.

OMG, just got the connection between Jackie and Paula Abdul…MAGIC JOHNSON! He said he is cool with Jackie…Lakers…early 80’s, YEP! Umh Humh. So if that is true what J. Randy Taraborelli be saying then ah hah!
You’re born alone. You die alone. Never have those words been truly understood. I just thought my mom was being mean or insensitive when she said that in response to me not wanting to do things alone. Now the sucky past is if you live alone. A very solitary existence to be born, live, and die alone.
I hate when radio station speed up songs. They’ve sped up Billie Jean. That song has a lot of sprinkles. Like sprinkles of sound all over the place. Little accents that make the sound pop without you even noticing it.
I think my fave Alicia Keys song is Unbreakable. It’s clever and could be the black love anthem although Kimora ain’t black.

It’s weird to hear people refer to Shaq as Shaquille O’Neal…or is it two L’s or EI instead of EA?

Gosh, I hate uncertain morning. I’m not liking being in new places. I just want this month to be over with. I feel like I’m in hostile territory. There is no ease to the air here. I just want this day to be over with .I slept really well on the bus this morning. Don’t know why. It was warm…the sun is out. Almost feels foreign to have a bright, sunny day.
I cannot keep seeing silly, weird shit. Why did I just see four men (2 white 2 black). The one older black dude was balding like George Jefferson.. Walking all happy cause they just got out of jail. And how did I know? They all had on disposable blue zip up jump suits. I actually put on my mean mug and clutched my purse a little tighter. I like running errands alone. I can do what I wanna do at a moments whim with total disregard for all others.
You ever wonder why God puts you where he puts you? Like, why am I in LA? Really? What am I supposed to be getting out of this, but depression with a side of mental diffraction.

Why is Michael’s promoting the idea of making a Thriller jacket out of duck tape? That is some of the tackiest shit U have ever seen. And they have a poster up illustrating the finished product. Glad I was Thriller Mike 3 years ago and that my Thriller jacket is REAL!
I’m starting to get tired of people ignorantly calling me Monique.

I’m not a priority in anyone’s life, but mine. Yesterday a Jr. baby Cockroach. It was injured. Right at the curb at Temple and Main. It was trying feverishly to crawl, but was going nowhere. Green excrement protruded from its backside. I felt so sorry for it. I feared it was suffering. Then I understood euthanasia.
