That's hilarious that it's real -- I thought it was a joke. Does that mean Sandra Bullock and Meryl Streep are actually lovers, too??
Big, bad motorcycle guy Jesse James crying because his wife won best actor was adorable.
Yes.
I'm on a furlough day. Wheee. It would be more whee if I weren't wrangling my two adorable children all day. The little one demanded we bake cookies for breakfast. So far I am prevailing.
Perkins, I am giving you the fish eye.
Although, we did get out of the house on time today and without incident so I guess it is a good Monday so far. I have 3 unhappy vendors to return calls to and a pile of papers from Friday to go through and I am uninterested in either. On second cup of coffee.
Sandra made me cry last night. I never cry watching award shows. Tom Hanks cut to the quick Best Picture announcement annoyed. Even more than if it were done the normal way and they had to slog through all 10 nominees.
I flipped over to Amazing Race in the middle of the show and it sounds like the only thing I missed was the John Hughes tribute. I'm sure it is on youtube.
Perkins, I am giving you the fish eye.
Is that better or worse than the stink eye?
I've been horribly backslidey all last week and especially this weekend on both diet and the no-buy, so I decided to just suck it up, declare it a new week, and start again.
Wheeeeeeeee!!!!!
My (predictable) reaction: Whoo, the director of Near Dark won an Oscar! Yeah!
Me too! In fact, I had to edit my thing for work today to include her Oscar in the Near Dark section! Yay her!
I am not really looking forward to this week, although there are at least two good things about it:
1) I may have the Project That Never Ends off my plate by Friday.
2) When this week ends, I head to NEW ORLEANS! With Nora! And my sister! And many other awesome people!

Salon's review of last night's Oscars:
As crazy as it sounds, this year's Oscar festivities were dynamic, funny and moved along at a good clip. Hosts Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin were hilarious, there were great jokes by everyone from Tina Fey to Ben Stiller, and the speeches were less long and dull than they've been in years. For once, no one rambled on forever and agents were rarely thanked. Not only that, but the usual endless tributes that serve no purpose whatsoever were gone, cut down to a great John Hughes segment and an entertaining horror-movie montage.
That does sound crazy. Perhaps she watched a different show.
