Remember The Time(s)...

So this whole Michael Jackson thing didn't really hit me THAT hard yet when it happened. Maybe because he was still kinda in the shadows, not really doing anything huge lately, other than preparing for his comeback concerts (but that's still pretty underground). But I watched the Memorial thing on Youtube, since I couldn't watch it live cause I had to work, and THAT finally made me realized he's really gone. Call me a pussy or whatever, but I cried/teared up on his daughter's part, the end of "Will You Be There?", end of Usher's performance, Brooke Shields' speech, Marlon Jackson's speech, video of when he was 10 in Jackson 5 singing "Who's Loving You"... heck, that's pretty much almost the whole thing.

Did I really need two Michael Jackson blog entries? Yes.

I'll miss you, MJ.

"In our darkest hour,
In my deepest despair,
Will you still care?
Will you be there?
In my trials and my tribulations,
Through our doubts and frustrations,
In my violence,
In my turbulence,
Through my fear and my confessions,
In my anguish and my pains,
Through my joy and my sorrow,
In a promise of another tomorrow,
I'll never let you part,
For you're always in my heart."

San Diegooooo Zooooooooo!

So I spent my 4th of July fireworkless. But to make up for it, Lizzy B and I went to San Diego Zoo to spend it with the animals! And that was way more awesome than fireworks... If you have never been to the zoo drunk, you're missing out. I saw animals I didn't remember seeing until I looked at the pictures today. Haha. We bought matching tie dye shirts, gorilla tank tops, gorilla iron-on patch, and a smashed penny souvenir. I have a shitload of pictures (188 to be exact, plus Liz has more), but I'm too lazy to post any right now. Oh yeah, the greatest parts about going on drunken adventures is... well, you're drunk and you don't give a fuck... but the worse parts are when you lose things without knowing! I lost $100. I had 5 folded up $20 bills in my wallet, and by the end of the night when I needed to use it, it was no where to be found. :( Not only that, I also lost my parking validation ticket stub thing when we parked in a parking structure at a main street to go eat. Guess how much it costed me for a Lost Ticket Fee? $48!!! I don't even think parking at that lot all day would cost $48, and we were only there for like an hour. The awesome day ended with a crazy night. Haha. I don't remember what time I dropped off Liz at her house, but by the time I got back to mine, I parked my car, shut off the car, and... passed out with my seatbelt still on. Hahaha. I woke up at around 4:40 AM and realized the situation, so I walked into my house and crashed on my bed. And that concludes another wonderful adventure of Lizzy B and Sandy P. :)

My little hero in a half shelf.

My turtle died earlier this morning when everyone was still sleeping. I saw it alive before I went to bed last night, and woke up and saw it dead before I left to work.
