Michael Jackson....
Though I was not a huge fan by any means, I don't think that there is anyone that can say they absolutely hated Michael Jackson...I have countless of his songs on my iPod from his time in the Jackson Five up until his most recent stuff. So, while I'm no die hard fan...MJ was an amazing performer. The singing and oooh lordy, the dancing!
I have been reading things online and of course watching the events unfold on TV and everyone keeps saying "You Will remember where you were at the moment MJ died, just like your parents remembered exactly what they were doing when Elvis died and your kids will ask you where you were." I never asked my parents where they were when elvis died..but whatev...
So future children/grandchildren...this is what Mommy and Daddy/Grandpa and Grandpa were doing when we found out that Michael Jackson passed away:
We had just gotten home from work, we rode together since we worked only 2 blocks away from each other. Traffic was crappy but for some reason we didn't have the radio on and weren't playing on our blackberries (mom/grandma will show you pictures of this old phone that hardly did anything compared to what you have today!) we were simply talking and laughing. We stopped at a gas station to get a soda and went on our way home. June 25, 2009 was a very hot day. Even though we had our air conditioning on, we were still very hot in our apartment. I was in the middle of changing out of my work clothes and putting on shorts when I heard a headline on the news about MJ being in the hospital. So, before i put pants back on I ran upstairs to check the Internet to see what I could find out. Facebook (I can also show you guys what this is...pretty much how us old people kept in contact with each other since we couldn't teleport) was blowing up with every one's status updates talking about MJ in a coma, being dead, having his heart attack, it being a hoax....everything you could think of! Dad/Grandpa was letting Duke and Pita outside to go potty since we had just gotten home from work and when he came back inside I yelled down the stairs to tell him. He didn't really care. Probably because back in the day he thought he was pretty gangster and MJ was so not. So, kids/grand kids that's where I was when I found out that Michael Jackson died...in the upstairs of our little apartment in Indianapolis, sitting in my underwear....You can now go to school and tell your class where I was when I found out Michael Jackson died. Oh...and kids, Farrah faucett died on the same day. But i don't know much about her...just thought you should know that another famous person passed away on the same day.
PYT is the ring tone on my phone when Brian calls....has been for a while, now all of a sudden i feel like it belongs there....hm....

Michael Jackson Dies
Posted Jun 25th 2009 5:20PM by TMZ Staff
We've just learned Michael Jackson has died. He was 50.
Michael suffered a cardiac arrest earlier this afternoon at his Holmby Hills home and paramedics were unable to revive him. We're told when paramedics arrived Jackson had no pulse and they never got a pulse back.
A source tells us Jackson was dead when paramedics arrived. A cardiologist at UCLA tells TMZ Jackson died of cardiac arrest.
Once at the hospital, the staff tried to resuscitate him but he was completely unresponsive.
We're told one of the staff members at Jackson's home called 911.
La Toya ran in the hospital sobbing after Jackson was pronounced dead.
Michael is survived by three children: Michael Joseph Jackson, Jr., Paris Michael Katherine Jackson and Prince "Blanket" Michael Jackson II.
Story developing...
Farrah Fawcett Dies
Posted Jun 25th 2009 1:40PM by TMZ Staff
We've learned Farrah Fawcett died at 9:28 AM today. Ryan O'Neal and Alana Stewart were at her bedside. She was 62.
She died at St. John's hospital in Santa Monica in the ICU. Also present -- Farrah's longtime friend and hairdresser, Mila Murphy, and Dr. Piero, who has been caring for her.
Farrah's only child, Redmond, was not present. He's currently in jail. A petition will have to be filed for Redmond to be able to attend the funeral -- as of now, this hasn't happened.
The "Charlie's Angels" star was diagnosed with anal cancer back in 2006.
UPDATE: We've learned Ryan and Farrah did not marry during her final days. Alana Stewart, who has known Farrah for 30 years, said "she will always be there as that angel on the shoulder of everyone who loved her."
Ryan O'Neal just released the following: "After a long and brave battle with cancer, our beloved Farrah has passed away. Although this is an extremely difficult time for her family and friends, we take comfort in the beautiful times that we shared with Farrah over the years and the knowledge that her life brought joy to so many people around the world."

And We have Internet!
B and I have everything moved and most everything put away. I have a few more boxes to go through, but its all good! The dogs are both doing really well with the move, Pita didn't have any seizures, so we're very thankful for that!
My Parents came down to help us move. They are just amazing! They drove 5 hours to help us move, got here at 5 pm and then left the next day at 11am when everything big was over here....I love them!
My little sister is coming down to visit this weekend. I'm so excited to see her! Its been too long! I hate going a month without seeing my little sister/bff!
TTC is fine...just got done with AF, so now temping (though i think my thermometer is broken so i'll have to get a new one) But I was thinking maybe of not temping and doing cm and opk? idk. I still have time....we'll see!

I've been taking a little GP break...between spending time at the pool and packing and just trying to relax about TTC in general....blah. I'll be back though! No worries!
I'll post pics of the new place soon! :) Hope everyone is doing well!
