I h ave a million things to blog…okay, a million is probably an exaggeration, but still.
I took a bunch of pictures over the weekend that I have yet to upload. Soon.
Visiting with the family was good. It was my grandpa’s birthday, and so we had a little family get-together. My aunt and cousin who live in Maryland were there, so it was great to see them.
Of course, I left some things behind…a hairbrush, and a book that I was reading. Feh.
Also slightly annoying…I had been hoping my wedding dress would arrive before the weekend so that I could go and try it on. Alas, the bridal shop called me *yesterday* to tell me that my dress had come in. (You can read about my ongoing shoe quest over at my wedding blog, should you care about that sort of thing…) Rand and I have been plugging away at the wedding details, which I will write about in more detail over there.
We stayed up to watch the Oscars Sunday night, and I wasn’t as bored as I thought I would be. I may go into more detail, but here are the highlights (as far as I’m concerned):
- The musical numbers. Loved all of them. I haven’t seen any of the movies that had songs nominated (Enchanted, August Rush, Once), but I want to see them all!
- Jon Stewart bringing the woman who won for Once back onstage to give her acceptance speech since she was so rudely played off. Awesome.
- Diablo Cody! Whoo! She made me cry.
- Jennifer Garner being the picture of grace and style. She looked so adorably excited when Diablo Cody won.
- The cute French girl winning best actress.
- Ratatouille winning best animated feature.
Hmm…there’s probably more, but I’ve already forgotten. Sadly, I forgot all about joining Eden’s Oscar group and making picks this year. I tried to log in and do it at 8 on Sunday, but I was denied. Denied! Ah well.
Worked yesterday, and am working today. Work is good, but I’m so tired. Want sleep.
And now, I must prepare for a room full of 6th graders. Later!
