live a little dream, leave a little mess

Love me now while we're alive,
it's the best that we can do.
we'll have no time upon cloud nine,
so heaven on earth will have to do
I can sing like a bird, and dance like a demon
and I do it all so well...
cause I made a deal with the devil, and when I die,

I'm going straight to hell.

primetime survival

As if the world hasn't said it enough, but I think it must be said once more;

Thank the sweet baby jesus for bringing us Glee!

As obnoxiously prevalent as this show is becoming, I can't help but think that it was created specifically for me and quite likely by my 6-year-old inner child. And even though the increasingly ubiquitous presence of the music, moves, words, and steps is spreading like wildfire across generations and getting horribly annoying and tediously repetitive... It still remains amazing. Every single broadway-drenched reference that would fly over the heads of anyone less than well-versed in musical dramedy rings so clear to me, it's unbelievable. Hilarity and harmony and hot men singing showtunes, it's really all a girl could ask for.

That being said NPH may have brought everything to a new level. Dream On indeed, duets like that don't come around every day. Let alone twice in one episode... I dreamed a dream of everything I love rolled into 47 minute intervals. Let us take a look at some truly excellent moments from this past slice of awesomeness, shall we?....

"I sound like someone put tap shoes on a horse and then shot it."

"You can't feed a child sheet music. I mean I suppose you could for a while... but they'd be dead within a month."

"I have a box of playbills hidden away in my basement, will.... LIKE PORN!"

"Are you saying that you're fathers impregnated Patti Lupone in the Marriot in Akron? Was Mandy Patinkin in on this?"


Ahhaha, magic.
