Twentieth Journal Entry (10/23/02)

I haven't written in a while.. and here I am in Sweden about to go to bed after an incredible show and thought I'd take the time to fill you in... First of all.. the U.K leg of the tour was unbelievable. I can't even say how huge the reaction was.. how great it was to play so many sold out gigs.. I mean come on! 3 nights at the Apollo baby!.. Even I'm impressed and so grateful for the support in England. I think I'm going to move there for a while. Soak up some of
that love!

Anyway.. u.k was great.. had the most incredible tour bus party. The whole crew/band/friends/my sister.... cruising around London on a tour bus with no less than 3 lounges of dance music and ending up in a wicked club until 6 in the morning. Haven't done that in a while and I have to say I really needed the release. So cool to hang with my baby sis for a week too (well.. she's my older sister actually but she'll always be my babe)..

Made some really cool friends on this leg... Special mention to Cristel for the hook up. Right now.. getting ready to go to Russia! Wow.. never thought I be saying that in my lifetime. Wish us luck..

Thanks to the audience in Stockholm tonight who carried me when I didn't think my voice would make it. It did. And you did. Carry me that is. I love you for it.

Hey Dallas Austin finally finished the mix on the u.s version of I MISS YOU. I love it. Hopefully you'll hear that at radio at some point this year in the world outside of America and stateside Janury next year.

Thanks for being so cool.
Thanks for not buying me teddy bears anymore by the way!!! I mean.. you know my policy.. don't buy me a gift.. give a dollar to a charity... BUT IF YOU HAVE TO.. I'm a Calvin Klein 32... please no silk.. just cotton briefs OR boxers.. I'm not fussy!!

haha..only half kidding..
much love...
take care..
