Leave Me Alone, I Hate You

I mentioned before that I was a crazy Michael Jackson fan as a kid. I don’t know if I was able to fully communicate just how serious this wacko-jacko phase was. I have a ridiculous amount of demented diary entries about MJ. So many, that I could start an entirely new blog devoted to the MJ diaries alone.

But I figure, one blog is weird enough. Two blogs and you’re just a dick. (sorry multiple bloggers out there, I’m just speaking for myself on this issue)

So I’ve decided that Fridays will officially become creepy pre-teen Michael Jackson diary entry day here at Leave Me Alone.

TGIF people.

Grammy re-cap, circa 1984. This is it.

1-17-84

Michael Jackson is the greatest! He is so cool! He is also a total babe! (that means good looking) He was being really nice last night. He was nominated for 9 awards and won 8! That is a record I think. He also won the biggest award of all, the award of merit! All of his friends were up there saying nice things about him. Especially Diana Ross. They are really close friends. When she got up there, he was just about in tears! When he got up there to receive his award, he just hugged her. He even took up his 6-year-old friend to receive one award. He said that he was his biggest inspiration. I promise myself that one day I will meet Michael Jackson. I have to! After all, they say: where there’s a will, there’s a way! I am determined!

If you were wondering, his 6-year old friend was none other than Emmanuel Lewis of Webster fame. He was also with Brooke Shields, who, as you know, makes me want to barf.

In this clip, he even takes off his glasses. (the video says 1983, but trust me and my diary, it was 1984) Anyway doesn’t Michael Sembello seem pissed?
