So much to say

So, I have a load of things I want to cover. My mind is swimming, and I need to sleep. So hopefully blabbing about it all will let my mind relax after.

#1. Glee - People I know have been raving about a little show called Glee for the past year or so of my life. Anyone who knows me has said it is exactly the kind of show I would "LOVE LOVE LOVE!"  I didn't have much time or care for starting up a new TV show, so I told them I would watch it eventually, then didn't think another thing about it.
Last month Glee became available on Netflix instant play. I gave in a watched the 1st episode... within a matter of less then 3 nights I watched the entire season. Then, I found out they were well into season 2.. so I had to get hulu plus for a week long trail and watch those.. in another 2 days time.  I want to say, that I was a fool for waiting so long, and I do "LOVE LOVE LOVE L.O.V.E. Glee!!!!!!!

#2. It finally happened. After 2 years of learning and loving the music, not being able to afford tickets when it came through Portland.. and again here.  I got to go see WICKED last week!  I wasn't going to be able to go, due to no money, and a very sold out show. However they announced that before every show they would be holding a drawing to buy $25 tickets to that nights show... AND I WON!
The show was stunning. I had chills and tears throughout the whole thing. It was worth every desire I had to see it. The set was phenomenal, and the story every bit as well put together as the songs.
I loved ever second of it and am making plans to see it again as soon as I can.   Yay!~

#3. I was going to vent about some other things going on in my life. Then, as I thought about them I decided at this point there is no way to vent my feelings without also going into more detail than I care to share on the net at this time. Especially without incurring anger or hurt from possible (though unlikely) readers who are a large part of these feelings. So for now, my private journal will be the only audience to the rest of this post.   :p

Where does love end and obsession begin?

I am completely crazy... about Kristin Chenoweth.
When I am having a hard day and just need time to myself to cheer up or unwind. I go onto http://www.youtube.com/ and search out all the Kristchen  I can find. Then that leads me to Idina Mendzel, so of course I have to listen to as much of her as I can too. They are so amazingly talented and inspirational. 
I dream of seeing Wicked. Tickets to it (it is coming to my town next spring) are all I really want for Christmas. Every time I think about it I get all "verklempt" (2.31). My only concern is that seeing it without Kristin and Idina, it may not quite live up to my expectations. But the music alone is so my passion that I will be thrilled to see it with whomever is in it. Oh, but wouldn't it be AMAZING to see it in NY on Broadway with them!!!! *sigh*
          "Kiss me goodbye, I'm defying gravity... and you can't bring me down."
Anyways, back to Kristin. So, there is a video of her last performance on Broadway singing "Popular" and she is the cutest, most adorable person I have seen. And don't even get me started on "Taylor the Latte Boy" OMG, it is so adorable. And "14G". Point is... GO, look her up and be prepared to enjoy.
Let us also not forget Idina. She is so amazing in Wicked, and also in Rent. I advise listening to "Take me or Leave Me".  WOW! and so fun.
A few other things you can find them in is Glee, Pushing Daisies (Kristin sings little songs all through the series), and Idina was even in Enchanted (although she didn't sing :() which is sad.)
So now, even though it is long past time for bed, I am off to get my music fix from my favorite ladies.
