I am a gleek.

Yep, that's what I did for myself today. I let my sons play video games, pulled up the laptop and immersed myself in the world of Glee. This show is like a guilty pleasure, I shouldn't like it but I really do.

In my opinion (you are entitled to yours) it sends bad messages to our nations youth regarding, sterotypes, bullying, high school drama, sexual conduct and the list goes on. I get that it's a whacked out over the top version of what our schools are supposedly really like, but still, it's not good.

It also has a lousy, predictable story line that a fifth grader could write (well they would have to be a twisted fifth grader). And yet, I like it. It's mostly for the music, I am a sucker for a musical in almost any form. I believe my life is a musical and constantly pick out the song to describe the moment in my head. However, a singer I am not so you all get spared from my musical mischief.

I said mostly for the music, it's a little because I like shaking my head at the antics on this show, laughing at the inappropriateness of it all and judging all the characters espite the fact that they aren't real.

And now you know a little more about me than you probably ever needed to, oh well.
