"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Bwah, Aims! Also, I think the other team was supposed to be shocked and unable to move, you know, until the number was over.

I think that the anvil that we're trying not to be hit by is that when she sings, she has confidence, but not in "real life"

Sure, but the West Side Story performance she gave was tentative. And she was all wrought with giving it up for the teamness and imposter syndrome immediately afterwards. Harumph.

ALSO! WTF was lead chick doing complaining about getting the alto line? Anita's part is the best song in that show! Freaking sopranos.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

Hee. "A BOY LIKE THAT! COULD KILL YOUR BROTHER!"

It's not like Rachel is really a soprano anyway. I mean, she's got the range, but she's more the belty type. I'm sure Tina's got the range too.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

"A BOY LIKE THAT! WANTS ONE THING ONLY! AND WHEN HE'S THROUGH! HE'LL LEAVE YOU LONELY!"

And right? Rachel's totally a belter.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Took a day or two to get to The Office. The A-story felt like a set-up for the season's mayhem. This will not end well. "We're taking over Buffalo's workload" is a great explanation for keeping the two extra salespeople, though it would have been nice to add a transfer from Buffalo to the cast. Or maybe not -- the cast is pretty big already.

And I thought Toby had more sense than that.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

I found HIMYM a bit dull this week. Watchable, but lacking the laughs and randomness of last week's. Although the doppelgangers thing was great.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I loved it. Ted's double date may not have been a laugh riot, but I thought it did what HIMYM does very well, which is Get It Right. I am Ted Mosby.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

yep, not my favorite HIMYM but Big Bang Theory was kinda awesome. The special guest entomologist was a wonderful surprise.

Yeah, there is also that. The Girl and I are Lily and Marshall (but we're never sure who's who), even when we really don't want to be.

Ah, I'd forgotten that The Big Bang Theory was on Mondays too (four of the five things I'm watching are airing on the same night). Must remember to ahem.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Hee--TWOP has a bit on where the characters from Glee will be in 20 years. This is perfect:

Kurt Hummel -- Now: This gay student recently came out of the closet, but he also became kicker for the football team. Hopefully that will keep him from constantly getting stuffed in the dumpster.

20 years from now: Following in the fabulous footsteps of his mentor Simon Doonan, Kurt has made quite the splash designing windows at top department stores. His signature scent never took off, but his football experience helped him win over his boyfriend, who plays professional football for the Jets.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Dear Santa -

I have been a good girl this year, even if it has been a light year of fic reading and writing for me.

However.

If you would be so kind as to give all of my presents to Dana so that she would write a scene of the 20th class reunion in which Kurt's pro-football boyfriend kicks the crap out of mohawk football guy (or at least gets in his face), that would be ACES.

Thanks ever so much!!

Love,
Aimee
