jessipsaloquiturI've been in such a maudlin funk for the past couple of weeks, and it's really becoming rather tiresome. And then the past couple of days I've been so freakin' tired. I think I pretty much slept most of Monday and Tuesday. Which, hello, depression red flag, how are you doin? Ugh.
I am SO looking forward to next week's trip to L.A. A week away and doing things I enjoy with people I enjoy is just what I need to kick my ass out of this pity party I've been wallowing in.
Speaking of this trip, I'm highly amused that I have tickets to 5 different live music events over the course of 4 days! In fact, I have tickets to THREE SHOWS for Saturday alone! Haha! Like I've said, either we rock really damn hard or we are completely crazy! Either way, I love this amazing group of friends who enable these shenanigans! <333
Two of the three Saturday shows are for Darren Criss! In case y'all missed the memo, I'm a bit smitten with him at the moment. Yeah, I know. It's hard to tell. *g*
I mentioned that he did an original song at the Trevor Live concert last week, right? Well here's some really great video of Darren performing "Not Alone."
The video runs right into "Teenage Dream," with Katy Perry, which he even tweeted was not his best performance. It looks as if nerves got the best of him. But, focus on the first song, which I really love and which I'm hoping we get to hear IN ONE OF THE TWO SHOWS WE'RE SEEING ON SATURDAY!!! WHAT?? Two Darren Criss shows in one day? Hell yeah! *laughs*
So, yeah, that really wasn't the original plan. Originally we were going to his show that starts at 7:30 and just planning on booking outa there in time to rush over to Monte's show. But then yesterday he announced an early matinée show, which means we'll get to enjoy his show without having to possibly rush out early. So, yeah, double the Darren! I'm totes okay with that! :D
No, really. There is NO bad in more of THIS:
Like I said: NO BAD HERE AT ALL.
Speaking of the adorable Darren Criss, I loved his scene with Chris Colfer in this week's Glee. Sure it was completely lacking in context, and just sort of shoe-horned into that episode, but I DON'T REALLY CARE! That scene was ONE OF THE BEST THINGS I'VE SEEN ON T.V. EVER!!! Just look at their wittle faaaaces!!! <333
And Kurt totally checking out Blaine's ass as he walked out of the room! And then telling Mr. Schue that he was in love with Blaine! And, just, EEEEEEE!!!! That whole scene is made of rainbows and unicorns and all things sparkly and good in this world! I'm even ok with them not kissing yet, because the build up is just so ridiculously SWEET!
So, yeah, I may never get tired of this! Just so you know. *g*
I actually kinda liked this episode beyond just the Kurt/Blaine adorableness. I mean, really, Glee kids and cheesy holiday songs. What's not to love? I loved Brittany and her belief in Santa Claus and all the other Glee kids rallying to make sure she doesn't lose that. And I loved the scene with Coach Bieste. And Sue the Grinch! I'm still pretty MEH on the Rachel/Finn story line, but the rest of it totally worked for squishy, happy, holiday feel-goodness.
Not to be outdone on the ADORABLENESS factor,
The hat! And the smile! And the crinkly smiley eyes! And his ADORABLE FAAAAACE!!!! I wanna keep him in my pocket and feed him cookies and pet his floppy hair!
And then he goes and wears something completely ridiculous like this:
Look at that! Mustache t-shirt. Striped pants. Lace up boots. I don't even know what's happening there!!! *laughs and laughs* But somehow, this adorable BAMF is making this craziness work for him! Hearts in my eyes, forever, Chris!!!
Ok, I have fic recs and some other stuff, but I think I've spammed y'all enough for one afternoon with the ridiculous shit that's brightening up my otherwise gloomy week. I don't know about you, but I certainly feel better about life now! *beams*
