Timelies all!
Didn't watch the Oscars, as I hadn't seen any of the nominated films. (Actually, I think I saw two films last year in the theater.)
Don't I get a cookie?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Our wings are not tired.
All I could think about last night when Zellweger was on stage was: "One day she is going to wake up and be Dianne Weist."
They both have the "Lady-of-the-perpetually-sucked-lemon" thing going on.

Oh my god, one of the pictures has a display scheme exactly like one I used in high school and it freaked me out! (blue and neon green) But it wasn't mine. And man, I'd totally forgotten about it until just now.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Oh, and you gotta respect the kid who did "Can You Turn a Glass of Water Upside Down Without Spilling? Yes" Looks like it took five minutes to do. Plus you can still see marker stains on his hand! [link]

Gummy Bear in molten potassium chlorate (video)
Quite a violent reaction, with flames and large amounts of carbon dioxide, steam, etc. being released. Apparently there's a lot of energy contained in a Gummi Bear....

So I sent an "I'm going to be out sick" email at around 4:30. Since then, have been procrastinating calling the guy because a) I hate personal contact and b) I'm not reeeeeallly sick, am I, I could probably go in tomorrow after all/no I couldn't/yes I could/don't I deserve a sick day/but I'm not really sick so I'll feel bad/but will I really feel so much better if I go in?/you'll feel more virtuous/more virtuous? will I really?/...no. So I finally called, and he said that he'd already got me covered. Dude, then REPLY TO MY EMAIL.

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".
Jumping back to the Oscars last night. I'm sorry I wasn't on for the play by play! Watched then with DH and we discusses the nuances as it went. Alas, many of my students were not excited about discussing the show today...a majority of them didn't even watch them! (gasp! they may have to fail!) At least most of my Stagecraft class watched the show and we had a lively discussion for about 20 minutes this morning
Trends so far:
Lameass ponytails
Red dresses
Off the shoulder dresses
Oi, anyone want to venture this is the trend Prom will feature for this year?
