2010 - What the hell do I know? Well - at least TEN THINGS

Well – the run up to this would be: The first thing I sort of know is that if you don’t blog for awhile, you eventually hear about it from people in all aspects of your life. Sorry friends! Let’s see how I do this year – shall we? Here – in an illustrious return to the bucket of glitter, and a riff on both old and new themes…kicking off the 2010 blogging season is…

Ten things I know!

1.) The Supreme Court has made a really grievous error in judgment. Guess I should start saving up now to have my vote matter for anything.

2.) Fewer things feel like a job better done than hitting the rare trifecta of a gift that equally delights your 30-something year old best friend and her four year old niece, and also mortifies your boyfriend to the same degree while he is carrying it home from the store.

3.) Spin class is more fun when they play the club mix of Jesus Christ Superstar. If someone ever started a spin class that was the soundtrack to Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, and we were all allowed to sing, I would go EVERY SINGLE DAY.

4.) Muppets are awesome.

5.) So is cake.

6.) I cannot now, nor ever will, be convinced that a life devoid of creative or humanitarian pursuit is a life worth living.

7.) There are fewer things more annoying in life than the fact that the second your laundry is done, there is more laundry to do. If someone invents flattering disposable clothes, I’m the first person in line.

8.) The first sign that you might not be as awesome as you might think you are is the fact that you consistently tell people how awesome you are.

9.) This band is totally a hipster gimmick, yet all men of any age seem impervious to that. I can’t imagine why…


10.) Apparently, when dating a librarian, it’s a wise idea to return your library books on time. Otherwise, he will take your library card from you and not give it back. Ever.

So - the Tony awards were last night (!!) and in honor of that - I bring you this. One of my faves.

Enjoy your Monday. I'm hoping that I survive mine.



While we're at it. Let's give it up for Bernadette Peters. shall we? clap clap clap clap.

OOOh - Beethoven off!

So - Inspired by this little video from by Chert(impossible to spell)k over at Nobody's Friend, I thought that I would bring you this...

JOY for Tuesday? Perhaps....
Cartoon love for the week at hand? Maybe...
Musical theatre making a mockery out of something revered? Possibly...

Eye of the beholder...blah blah blah.

Enjoy!

Ten things I love...a Broadway themed extravaganza. Let the mocking commence!

1.) Vintage Barbara Streisand

2.) Mandy Patinkin (His name is Inigo Montoya, you killed his father, prepare to die.)

3.) Les Miz

4.) Cherry Jones (you know who she is - you just don't know it)

5.) Into the Woods

6.) Sweeney Todd

7.) Jerry Orbach (Law and Order my ass)

8.) Funny Girl

9.) Jesus Christ Superstar

10.) Kevin Kline (Yeah - Kevin Kline. I'm not even going to humor you with a link here)

10.5) The first 5 minutes of 42nd Street

There's a bunch more, and I'm sure a few others that should be on this list - Urinetown? Avenue Q? Spring Awakening? And we won't even discuss my failure to see August: Osage County...
