My New Year's wasn't as great as years passed. Went to a family party, wished I got wasted just so that I can do away with the mental image of my grandmother getting drunk and playing bingo (Sue, I'll trade you the walrus imagery, please?), wished even more for an alcoholic haze as the neighbors around me decided to light as much fuse as a military personnal during practices, and capped the night praying the cable gods not to have a blackout on my local FOX affiliate.
And so far this... You know... I'm slightly tempted to... ah hell, why not? It has a "New Year" vibe to it... It's corny. It's cheesy. But oh so apropo because that's what I love about "musicals"...
Despite it all (the weird syncing of singing voices of [Zac] Efron and [Drew] Seely), the lyrics sold me upon the fact THAT's how I felt when fell in love with Glee.
Anyway, moving on... so I'm stoked. Praying to the cable gods worked! (please bring back Glee early, please bring back Glee early)
Time Warner Cable and FOX had -- hours ago -- strike a cable deal, agree to new fees. This all means that yes, sports fan keep their football and we will get to see Glee upon its return in April! Woohoo!
Oh and so, this Gleeker was thinking (usually a bad thing) and my creative -- somewhat twisted -- juices were flowing and lo and behold I came upon this little inspiration.
In honor of the New Year, I've come up with a Resolution List for the Hard-core Gleeker in all of us.
And because this list is special, if you intend to take part in it, you must raise your right hand (the other hand for all you Brittany's out there) and swear to do your best in upholding them (I certainly will try).
- If you listen to the song before viewing the performance, judge it not solely on audio but by performance. Perfect example; the use of "My Life would Suck without you"... Kids Bop-ish by sound, KICK-ASS HOMAGE by sight!
- To quote/paraphrase the wisdome of Sue Sylvester more often.
- Hold my tongue every time someone bashes Glee... because someday they might work for me.
- Drink more slushies.
- Remember to not factor in the forecast in calculating my mathematical equations.
- To get myself a Go-To Shower song.
- Ditch the Desperate Housewives fanfic for more Glee fanfic.
- Not assume that any hip-hop song will be automatically sung by Mr. Schuester (no matter how hot his dance moves are)...
- Know the difference between my ducks and my love songs.
- To avoid sun dresses least I announce to the world that "I'm pregnant."
- To determine a more kickass name than "Drizzle"...
- To practice any sport with a Beyonce song.
- To keep a journal as awesome as Sue's Journal (though I doubt it will be as witty)...
Also, in spite of news articles conflicting Idina Menzel's appearance on Glee (see blog: My Fragile Gleek Heart), I came upon a video by E! and, well...
So not only do they speak of Idina, but they also splurge a little info on the special Madonna episode!
Sue + Cheerios + Madonna song = OUTSTANDING!
Miss Sylvester, I might have to go the pound and pick you up a pit bull. I will give you that pit bull and wait for you to fall in love with that pit bull. And then on some cold dark night, I will sneak into your home and give you a freakin' big hug!
See? Already got a leg up on Resolution #2!
