Last year for the Oscars Adam was working in Kelowna and I was alone recovering from my ass surgery so I watched the Oscars in my designer Betsey Johnson dress and heels and felt all sexy and shit. I went to bed before they were over.
This year we printed Ballots and filled them out earlier in the day. That is just so awesome that you can print them right off the Oscars’ website! Who knew?
Adam decided to dress up in a suit and when he was out at the corner store getting milk I threw on my wedding dress ‘cept I couldn’t get it done up because I’ve packed on some sweet pounds in EXACTLY six months TODAY and because I am still sick when we finally got it done up when I’d cough we heard wee ripping sounds so I had to take it off. I was going for more of a ball gown feeling for this year’s show but it didn’t work out.
We’d seen quite a few of the nominated films and performances- I was really looking forward to them this year if for nothing more than Ellen. I loved it when she gave Martin Scorsese a script and then Clint Eastwood wanted one too but all he got was a lousy photo. That was funny.
Ryan Gosling looked fantastic representing for Canada. Half Nelson is a kick ass movie if you haven’t seen it. His nomination reminded me of Edward Norton’s second nomination for American History X in that it was a fantastic performance, you knew he wasn’t going to take it, but both performances are MUST SEEEEEEEEEE and both men can still do no wrong in my eyes. Acting wise HOLY I’m married, although I did remind Adam that my innocent crush on Ryan Gosling started in 2001 when he did The Believer which therefore predates him. OBVIOUSLY I love Adam the mostest.
The show was way too long and Cameron Diaz looked stupid. Kirsten Dunst takes the worst dressed EVER award. Abigail Breslin at age 10 looked more mature than Dunst at age 24. Al Gore rocked it out hard and Leo looked like a man. I seriously thought Jennifer Hudson’s right boob was going to explode out of her dress when she was singing, it scared me and I found it distracting. But there was part of me hoping it would bust free as well.
In the end Adam and I tied with 14 of 24 categories correct. I was trailing for a while but caught up because Adam had Babel picked for the big awards and he didn’t even like it whereas I had The Departed for the big ones and cleaned up. I really wanted Mark Wahlberg to take Best Supporting Actor he was hilarious in The Departed but Alan Arkin was also fantastic in Little Miss Sunshine so I was happy to see him win.
If it were up to me Ellen would now host every year, just with less makeup on, I loved her outfits and her hair but was not a fan of her makeup it was a little too girly for my taste.
Yesterday I bought new panties at American Eagle because I needed new panties and I really like almost all of AE’s panties. I THOUGHT I was buying two pairs of the panties shown first in the displayed photo but ended up with two pairs in a completely different cut.
They were three for twenty dollars and I did get one other pair which will be fine but still two are wasted and don’t even fit well enough to rotate as period panties and they are mediums. LAME. I’m currently wearing the other pair of the ones shown on top of my favorite pair and the crotch is way narrower as well and they were half way up my ass crack before I got them half way over my butt cheeks, there was major readjusting and they are almost too big in the front but hardly cover the cheeks? I have peek-a-boo plumbers crack.
I EXPECTED sympathy from my husband because I wasted money and I was mad, so I showed him both pairs and said something to the effect of: ‘well come on, had I have sent you out and said please get me three pairs of my favorite underwear from AE you’d have gotten the wrong ones’ with both pairs displayed balanced on one knee and he launched into a pantie shape speech and discussed the line down the front of the new ones [GREAT that also means instatoe, although Adam has no problem with instatoe, I DO] he also asked me to turn them over so he could compare butt coverage area circumference and structure and said he would have never confused the two.
WELL THEN I’ll just have to have him buy ALL my underwear from now on- I had NO IDEA he was paying THAT close of attention.
