It was a very low-key weekend. In fact, on Saturday, I didn't even shower. Ew. Friday night we went to dinner with friends to the Olive Garden, after which I felt sick for the next day. I don't know if it was coincidental, but the Oscars were last night and I watched a lot of movies this weekend. First up was Sideways. Paul Giamatti is just such a dorky looking guy. Too much talk of wine. Maybe if I drank I'd "get it" more. Next: Love Story. a 1970 classic that I LOVE. cry every time. I've been TiVo-ing classics of off TCM--month long special of all Oscar nominated/winning movies, commerical free. I have a lot on the box I need to watch! Lastly, March of the Penguins. Loved it! It was really interesting, and who doesn't love penguins? They are so darn cute. Plus, they scoot around on their tummies!
The Oscars were just so-so for me. Not that I ever really get into them, but I like to see what people wear. Charlize Theron's dress would have been ok had it not been for the watermelon-sized bow on her shoulder. Jon Stewart did an OK job, I think. There weren't too many people laughing at his jokes tho.
Disappointment of the week: Fallout Boy on SNL. They were TERRIBLE. It sounded just like a high school band, with a bunch of poser dudes hopping around on stage just banging on their guitar strings. Not impressed. I had wanted to see them next month when they came to town, but I think I'll just save my money.
Other than that, got a test tomorrow that I need to study for tonite. Then 2 tests next week and then Spring Break. Ahhhh. That is one thing that I like about UWM compared to BYU. We actually get a spring break. Because right about now, I need a break.
OK, gotta get back to class. Happy Monday!
