good evening! oh it’s been yet another emotionally draining day … i would have liked to have stayed home to watch the live telecast of michael jackson‘s public memorial held here in downtown los angeles earlier this morning but unfortunately i couldn’t take the day off (i would have if i had been selected for tickets) i caught most of it online but i had a meeting that landed right in the middle (let’s just say i was not a happy camper) i thought the memorial was really well done … the performances were touching & heartfelt but hands down the most emotional moment was at the end when michael’s 11-year-old daughter paris katherine spoke briefly – saying ever since I was born, daddy has been the best father you could ever imagine, and I just wanted to say I love him so much. that moment really brought it all home – i’ve cried a bunch of times since he suddenly passed away on june 25th but i held back tears today until she spoke – it’s still hard to believe the king of pop is forever gone – may he finally rest in peace! michael jackson we miss & love you more than you’ll ever know – xoxo
