"it'd be like a priest getting to work with jesus."

i watched this interview with one of the Glee cast members on what it was like working with Kristin Chenoweth and that's what he compared it to. it was awesome. i heart kristin chenoweth.

so, i think Glee should make a habit of having awesome broadway stars do guest spots on the show. i mean, i'm only 2 episodes in, so i don't know if that happens or not. but, that's how it should happen.

oh! there could be a Glee/Private Practice crossover episode!!!!! that way Taye Diggs could show off his amazing vocal talent.

ALSO, so Glee is basically like a musical HEROES!!!!! what is with all the Heroes people on Glee?!?!?! Claire's real mom, Charlie, and Elle's dad! cr-azy! and those three people were all killed by Sylar! and now they're on Glee. ain't it the truth..

ANYWAYS. Glee. yeah, this is basically the way i want my life to work out. i want to be able to sing like them!!!! aahhh i'm so jealous. i envision my life and i am a huge singing sensation.

that's my new life direction: singer. watch out, world! here i come.

yeah. i'd be about as successful a singer as Tobias is an actor. on Arrested Development.

so, in my post last night i was very conflicted on how to go about watching Glee. and then my wonderful, "TV-in-the-know" friend Dan, suggested this website for me to try. and i tried it!!! and the streaming worked for about 16 minutes. just enough to make me LOVE the show. and then it stopped working. i even refreshed the page. meaning that it had to reload everything again. yeah. i waited a looooong time. and then the second time it stopped at 20 minutes. and i wasn't going to wait again, only to have it stop working 4 minutes longer.

so, i did the next natural thing - i bought it from iTunes. all that non-stop working HAS finally paid off.

but then, (funny story), the first episode took FIVE HOURS to download. hahaha. you might think i'm joking. but no. i am not joking.

five freaking hours. for a 45 minute episode. i watched 27 Dresses and took a bath and checked in with Courtney and then it was finally done. and, lucky me, i didn't realize it was downloading in HD (high definition), and the episode would barely play. because my awesome computer just can't keep up. i saw most of the episode.

i made sure that the rest of the downloading episodes were in non-high definition. and i SHOULD HAVE KNOWN. because whenever i watch tv shows on say, ABC.com, i always have to watch them in standard definition because it just will not work otherwise.

anyways. so, now i'm finally on episode two. that one only took 2 hours to download. (standard def) and i start watching it - and it's working beautifully.

now, i don't know if i've told you about my computer crashing issue. how my computer will randomly crash if you turn it the wrong way, if the battery cord becomes unplugged, if you say, pick it up and place it somewhere else. these are all "timebomb" instances where my computer could crash at anytime.

THREE TIMES. 3 times. not one, not two, but THREE times, did my computer crash in the middle of the second episode of Glee. that means shutting off the computer. turning it back on. waiting for everything to start up. opening iTunes. getting my HD/non-HD downloads in place. opening my external harddrive folder (because this is where i'm downloading the episodes). and finally playing it.

this whole process alone is like, 10 minutes.

let me just say that in order to get through this whole ordeal, i just had to keep imagining my Macbook. sitting out there, somewhere, waiting for me to come and take it. to make it my own. i also kept imagining myself hurling my current laptop against a brick wall.

but, through all of this, i was thrilled to be watching Glee. and let me just say, that i have waited countless years for this musical phenomenon to take over the world.

PEOPLE LOVE MUSICALS. (yes kara, even you.) and they just don't like to admit it!!! it's a serious problem facing our nation. nay, facing our world.

and, as much as i (kind of) hate to admit it, i think some thanks has to be given to Mister Zac Efron. he's a good looking kid. nay, a great looking guy. and he just loves to sing and dance. he got people excited about musicals. really excited. like, really excited. probably billions of dollars worth of HSM merch excited.

and then came the great Meryl Streep. appealing to all ages. singing and dancing her way to the number 2 spot at the box office!!!!!!!! (Mamma Mia was released the same day as The Dark Knight....it was to be expected.)

we moved up from a made for tv kids movie. to a real movie theater movie. and now to a weekly tv series. that i think people are kind of going crazy over.

i promise i won't say 'nay' again.

anyways. i can't wait to get to the Kristin Chenoweth episode of Glee. ah! she's so great. and tiny!

it's really a surprise that the vampire musical didn't work out. NOW they should open the vampire musical. now that people are so weirdly obsessed with vampires. i mean, come on, it was an Elton John musical. was it really that bad?

anyways.

GLEE = good
VAMPIRES = bad
ZAC EFRON = really good

this is what we've learned so far from my blog post

oh,

JULIE'S COMPUTER = even worse

so, what's the deal with Black Friday? do things apply to online? like, online sales? and, i never realized that the stores actually give away their sales beforehand. i guess i thought it was a huge mystery until you arrive at the store. but no! so, while we're on the subject. does Apple do any black friday deals? are they known for their amazing sales?

i could probs just google this. it's just more fun if i hear if from you. i pretend that if i ask you a question, you'll just know the answer immediately!

also, back to Glee, the teacher, he was in Hairspray, correct? on broadway. he was the broadway version of zac efron. Link Larkin. i believe all this is true. and, i just wanted to say, that i can totally picture him in that role. with his curly little hair. and charming smile.

so, at first my plan for this weekend was to watch Glee all day on saturday, and then do spring cleaning on sunday. but, now that my Glee plan hasn't quite panned out, i'll have to spend all day Sunday watching it, and scrap the spring cleaning altogether.

i mean, winter cleaning.

ah well. it'll have to wait until the spring.

i set up my cell phone so that whenever kara calls me a picture of Meryl Streep and Amy Adams comes up. i was really excited when i realized i could do this, and really proud that i figured it out.

ok, back to Glee. this is the big number at the end of the Pilot episode. you must watch it. that's me using my mind power over you. my Matt Parkman/Sylar mind power. the cast is singing Journey's, 'Don't Stop Believin'' very appropriate for them. and for me. for anyone, really.

and that song makes me remember dancing at Kerianne's wedding. and it makes me really happy to think about dancing at Kerianne's wedding.

ok. it's currently 3:37am. sunday morning. i'm probs gonna try and watch one more episode and then head to bed. i'm not really feeling tired. and, i've learned that i just have to be absolutely exhausted in order to get into bed and fall asleep. like last night, i got into bed at around 3:35am, and i couldn't even lie down. i sat up in bed until 4:30 trying to get tired.

alright. how was your saturday?!?!!?! i sometimes forget to ask you how your day was. i'm sorry for that. usually nobody ever responds. but, if i write that sentence, 'how was your day?', and it makes you think about your day, even if you don't reply, that's still good. it's good to reflect. which is basically what this blog is. reflections of my day. and thoughts on celebs.

ok! have a great sunday. you know what they say! sunday. funday. so true.

love you! talk to you later!!!!
