Jon Gosselin...the douche bag

I'm happy to see that Jon Gosselin is finding out who he really is. Maybe the cigarettes and the 20 something girlfriend are helping him find the 'inner Jon'. By the way, who picks up smoking in their 30's? I feel so sorry for those kids. I'm almost embarrassed for Jon because I don't think he realizes there are going to be serious repercussions for his behavior. I sure hope that Kate is at home providing a stable environment since their father is too busy smokin it up in St. Tropez.

Attention Keurig Coffee Owners

Shortly after I got my Keurig, I started looking for a way to re-use my k-cups. Since I am the only coffee drinker at my house the Keurig has been my main coffee pot. I don't use the other one unless we have company over because it is too much coffee for me; however, the cups for the Keurig are somewhat expensive. Plus, I felt bad because I wasn't sure I could recycle them. Anyway, I came across this website called My-Kap (http://www.my-kap.com/MYK/). You can purchase this little plastic piece that fits into your old k-cups so you can re-fill them with whatever kind of coffee you want. There are instructions and a video on the website on how to use them. They are very inexpensive and they work beautifully. It takes a matter of seconds to fill the cup and pop on the lid. I ordered a pack of five but wish I would have ordered more.

Final Farewell

Today we say our final farewell to MJ. I'm sure his memorial service will be fitting of a king. They are predicting that up to a million people could show up for his service. That's absolutely insane!

I wanted to post a video that showed a sliver of the enormous talent that he had. It's also the way I want to remember him. It's not a performance that most would pick but it is a personal favorite of mine. It's the Jackson 5 performing 'Dancing Machine'. Watch as Michael (about 1:44) goes into the robot. It is simply amazing. He seems so happy. What a sad day this is.

Obsess Much

I'm going to come clean. I've been a little more than obsessed with Michael's passing. I feel like part of my childhood is gone now that he's gone. He's the reason I took singing and breakdancing lessons (yes, you read that last one right). I guess I thought one day we would do a duet together and I could impress him with my newly acquired dance moves. Those days are long gone.

Poor Evan has had to endure hours worth of his music. We listened to 4 hours non-stop on our way down to San Antonio this weekend. We both sang and danced (as much as one could while driving) and it was fun. Not only that, but I've bought every magazine, watched what seems like every news channel, taped every special, checked every website from TMZ.com to Perezhilton.com to People to stay abreast of the latest news. I've also contributed to the re-surge in record sales this past week due to the fact that all of my MJ music is on records at my parents house.

I don't care if I'm crazy. He was one of a kind and unmatchable. I don't believe we'll see someone of his magnitude, his creativity, his soul, or his voice again for a long time. R.I.P. Michael.

Happy 4th of July!
