Imagining Mickey's Musical Firework Medley: The game

My head has been ringing all day. A headache born of the stress of decisions. But it's night. I'm alone in my house in my old BYU Law sweatshirt. A big bowl of cereal. The sounds of the dryer and and old "When I Go Deaf" playing on my crappy laptop speakers. And in this moment, the pressure in my head is beginning to release where ice packs and a mega dose of Aleve have failed me.

It's just one of those totally mundane moments that I never want to forget.

Anyway, one of my friends is at Disneyland right now. Anyone who has ever been to Disneyland knows that the musical medley during the fireworks show is cheese-tastic. So we have a new game that doubles as an instant pick me up when you're feeling down: Mickey's Musical Medley. Just throw the following words into a bag: wish, color, imagination, hope, dreams, magic, true, wonder, heart, star, world, hope. Draw at random. Congrats. You have created a Musical Medley. Example:

Dreams and wishes!
Wishes and Dreams.
It's the color of wonder and magical things.
Imagine your wishes as stars.
Hope for magic.
Be true to your dreams.
It's the world of colors and wishes and DREEEEEEAMS.
Of your heart.

I know it's hard to believe, but that took me less than one minute to compose. I even have the melody in my noggin, complete with sparkles and spoken word transitions by Julie Andrews and a cast of Disney characters. These things write themselves. If you're having any trouble imagining my song, just click on ANY point of this 10 minute firework medley. Holy crap. That's Julie Andrews. And I thought I was making this stuff up.
