All About Oscar


Lady Chardonnay regrets she's unable to blog this week.

The Oscars are my Super Bowl, my Winter Olympics, my Summer Olympics, my Finding-Out-Who-Shot-J.R. moment — the summit, the apex, the zenith of my TV watching. And every year I host a party, which requires a feverish amount of planning (games! cocktails! attire!). Plus, I try to see every major nominee, and this year, with 10 possible Best Pictures, I've been a busy girl. (Just last night: A Single Man and An Education, back to back. Whee! I told Mr. Lady Chardonnay that five minutes into the former, all I could think about was coming home and clinging to him for many hours, but then after the latter I hated all men — husbands, fathers, beaux, they all suck — and he was free to go about his business.)

So not only Idol blogging but Idol viewing have taken a back seat; I haven't watched the show since the girls performed last week. I will catch up next Tuesday, but in the meantime, sister, I've got cocktails to concoct! (I'm working on my recipes for Avatar Blues and Inglorious Bastertinis. I'm also designing my hair and make-up after Julianne Moore's in A Single Man. I'm busy!!!)

Enjoy the boys tonight. I'll see you post-Oscar!

I am so excited about Inglorius Basterdtinis! I saw HURT LOCKER and INVICTUS yesterday! And with UP today, I have completed my quest!I have seen all the best picture and major acting nominees. I could have added all the writing and supporting acting films if it weren't for IN THE LOOP, LOVELY BONES and LAST STATION. They were just too hard to find...
