A Very Serious Entry

Jun 18, 2007 20:12

It started in the late 1980s. 1989, if you want to get down and dirty with the details. I remember sitting on the floor of my bedroom, in Hickory NC, listening to my beat up copy of DeBarge's wildly successful single "Who's Holding Donna Now?"

Lauren, first, may I applaud your bravery? It takes a strong person to fess up to a secret THIS dark. Really. It's amazing that you're still left to wonder the streets freely.

Writing this entry was really like an out-of-body experience for me. The words just spewed out...I really have NO idea where they came from.

And thanks, Erin. It was really hard to let this all out after 18 years.

Yes, wow...it really DOES seem like an out of body experience! If I didn't know any better, I'd think it might even be channeled through someone else!

I had no idea, Lauren. I'm glad you have purged.

Was Jet, that family from Samoa or Guam, the sister was the lead singer. What song did they sing. I remember I lived in Hawaii in the late eighties and they were HUGE in Hawaii.
