*Sigh*… And here I thought 2009 would end without another celebrity death. My naivety comes and goes, mostly goes… but WHY oh WHY did it have to be Patrick?
Being the exclusive outsider that I am, I admired and adored Mr. Swayze since I first laid eyes on him. I was a wee 5 years old when I first met Darrel Curtis in “The Outsiders”. One of my favorite movies of all time. Four years later, I met Johnny Castle, and I was never the same. My hands went from being regular hands, to exquisite jazz hands. How else did I become head makeup artist at such a tender age? Oh yes, my dancing became extremely dirty as well, and I refused to play that lame elementary school game “Four Corners”, because nobody could put Takahatchi in a corner.
Then the years passed, and I had the pleasure of meeting Sam Wheat from “Ghost”, Bodhi from “Point Break”, and finally Vida from “To Wong Foo…” That’s when I had the chance to be in his presence. Yes, yours truly was on set applying drag queen makeup. One of the highlights of my career.
Which brings me to another highlight of my career. Introducing YOU to chemical free products which help prevent cancer. Ignorance is bliss, and change is difficult to some… but it is for your own good.
Takahatchi’s Words of Wisdom #009: “Aluminum belongs in foil. Not in your armpits.” Please take a moment to view these alternatives to your regular not-so-good drug store deodorants. Kill It Dead by Simone Chickenbone and Totally Pure Deodorant by Origins Organics are two of my favorites. They are both aluminum/paraben/and synthetic preservative free!
In conclusion, Patrick Swayze lost his battle with cancer on Sep. 14, at the age of 57. May God rest his soul in heaven, where there are no corners to be put in.
