Soul Meets Body.

So, today by far has been one of the weirdest days in my existence. There are many reasons why.

First off, before I get into the total detail of my day I have to start off by saying these few words:

I'm still in complete shock that such an iconic person has passed away. Michael Jackson not only re-defined music, but inspired others to go for their dreams & set the basis for most of the 80's. He inspired so many artists that are famous & create iconic songs along with our musical generation these days. I truly believe without him the whole world of music we know today would be different. I remember actually the first time I heard Michael's famous "Thriller" album. Now, I wasn't born in the 80's neither did I grow up during that time, but my parents lived through it & so did my siblings. My sister Shelley was a pretty big fan, I'm sure. So, back when tapes were actually "hip" my parents sat me down in our living room & had me listen to the song "Thriller". When the creepy voice came on I ran around the house pretending to act scared of it. I'll never forget that moment. But, just a few hours ago MTV decided to play throughout the night Michael's videos, so I go the chance to see the music video. Creeeeeepy. What's even creepier is that I watched the video in my dark room, everyone in the house asleep, while it thundered and lightninged outside. Yup, it was an act of Michael himself, I'm sure. Or some act of God. It has to be. So, all in all, I wish Michael to rest in peace & my heart goes to his family & loved ones. He'll be missed & never forgotten no matter what stuff he went through in his lifetime. Let's look back at the good parts in his life & not that bad. We owe him that much<3

Next, I'd like my heart to go out to Farrah Fawcett's family & loved ones. She herself was an icon & I remember watching Charlie's Angels on TVLand with my Dad when I was younger. She's someone that all girls wanted to be like & will truly be missed as well. She's a strong woman & some day I hope to take those sort of values with me. Everyone should take pieces of her story with them. She's the bravest woman around. I give her so much credit for all she endured even if we never knew one another & were from different eras.

Well, I have to say those are 2 reasons why my day was a little wacky. Very unexpected in many ways. They both sort of shaped my childhood, so that's why it's such a shock. The dentist wasn't that bad, thankfully. But, the weather had me down all day. I woke up to find it cloudy & even when the sun tried it's hardest nothing but clouds rolled in to consume the day. Finally, when the day was coming to close I was able to see a sunset. That was nice. Now, if only that sun can stay... What's weird about the weather was that it was supposed to be sunny all day. Maybe the incoming passed ones made it cloudier. I don't know what it is, but every time someone I know or someone that's impacted me dies, there's a cloudy day. It can rain or just be horrid out. I hate it. It's weird. Maybe that thunderstorm was like a celebration from the Gods for the few incoming iconic stars. Who knows. That's a little out there, but we'll never know for sure. It doesn't harm anyone to think...right?

I'm more on the edge today due to various personal reasons & that's dampened my day sooooo much. I'm hoping tomorrow is better. I beg for it.

I got to actually spend a nice lunch with my mom today & go for a quick shopping trip with her which I never do. I don't know I just felt we needed to re-connect. She will be having knee surgery soon & that's a major surgery. I'm not trying to be negative or jinx things in anyways, but you never know what'll happen... I'm just glad we weren't at each other's throats for once. It was nice. The only great part of the day.

For the most part that's it. I was itching to get outta the house for the first real time this week since Monday & it was great. But, the rest of the week including the weekend will be spent indoors or at home. A few errands here & there. Ugh, I don't know. It just doesn't really feel like summer yet. Just mini spurts here & there. Nothing true yet. We'll see what tomorrow brings...
