i watch academy awards

no matter how many movies i've seen that are nominated or whether or not i care about the actors i have always loved loved loved the academy awards. when i was younger we always made an event of watching them on tv. everyone in my family (no matter where we were in the country) would put $5 towards a pot and we would fill out ballots and who ever was the closest won all the money (though it was always my mother who won which i still find a bit suspicious). for a couple years my mom and i would throw a mother daughter party and everyone would come where boas. so i guess you could say im excited for tonight. 

i am going to attempt to "live blog" along with the pre-show and show tonight, but we'll see how long my add allows that to actually happen.
