The One With The Big Game

I had planned on writing a big long post about the Super Bowl and all the incredible commercials.

But I am still struck dumb by the awesomeness of Glee's Super Episode.

Oh. My. Goodness.

First of all, everything was perfect. The storyline was superb. A lot of movement with character plot lines and issues. There were a ton of tiny moments that I loved. Like Coach Beiste singing along with Rachel and Puck during "Need You Now" (which I am SO happy they did. LOVE that song!) Mike Chang so concerned for Tina. Will beating the big drum after the big football win. Blaine licking his milkshake straw. I will be rewinding and re watching that over and over.

*sigh* Blaine. I heart Darren Criss. Can he just come and sing to me once? I think that would satisfy me for life. His rendition of "Bills, Bills, Bills" was once again better than the original and that scene at the restaurant? Can he BE any cuter? I have a huge HUGE crush! And Tuesday's episode is going to fuel that flame even more form the previews I have watched a dozen times.

Pause to insert how happy I am that there will be another new Glee episode in two days. Two days, people! That's all we have to wait!

But the "Thriller/Heads Will Roll" zombie performance? Absolutely awe-inspiring. I don't even have the words to describe the incredibleness. Which is not a word but I am making up to encompass such a stellar moment.

This is one that will stay in my DVR for a long time.

So I can't write about the game (which I didn't care that much about) or the commercials (some of which were really funny) because my head is full of Glee.

However, there is one stand out that I must mention because it's adorableness is too much to bear. (I am using a lot of -ness words tonight. I blame the Glee overload.)

My pick for best Super Bowl commercial. Mini-Darth Vader. The expressions, even with the helmet on are priceless. And the jump back, turn to look at the house, turn to look back at the car. So awesome. (Side note: Can I please live in one of the neighborhoods featured in commercials? They always look like the ideal street to live on.)

The One With The Challenge: My Wedding

Our wedding.

One of the most amazing days of my life.


I planned it all myself so it was a lot of work, a lot of stress, some tears and screams leading up to it.

But it was totally worth it for the end result was perfect.


Sure there were a couple things that went wrong on the Big Day. The Best Man's tux was wrong and didn't have tails, one of Brian's brothers didn't have any black socks, the flowers on our cake were blue instead of purple. My brother supplied the alcohol that got all the groomsmen tipsy before the service. Some of the pictures I wanted didn't get taken. The priest rushed through our ceremony because he had another wedding to get to due to an emergency with the priest set to officiate that service. In fact, we missed our first kiss! And he never announced us to the congregation...maybe we aren't even married...


But those were small issues compared to the joy and love we felt on that day. I married my soul mate, that was all that mattered. We had so many of our loved ones surrounding us and it was a fabulous time. The reception was so much fun, people still say it was the best wedding they ever went to. So all my hard work paid off. My contact at the reception hall who helped me coordinate everything even said I should become a wedding planner because things went off without a hitch.


But I could never make someone else's wedding as special as my own Big Day.
