ita, when I opened the link to that photo, the ugly ill-fitting shoes were the first thing I saw! Gah. Even worse than the dress in question, and the dress on the woman wearing The Shoes looked like a re-fitted burka.

Why did James Earl Jones, Dick Smith, and Oprah Winfrey get a standing O? What did they do? Something humanitarian, I assume. Meryl Streep looked fantastic.

Various lifetime awards -- Oprah's was humanitarian, but the other ones were for the work.

Aw, yay Meryl. Too bad, Viola.

I can't believe I'm still up. Stupid Oscars.

Meryl's adorable.

Now Gary Oldman's going to get a consolation Oscar for Butterfield 9: Electric Boogaloo.

I think someone needs to find a film for Oldman to be nominated for next year.

I recommend Oldman reading the phone book. Or, Oldman existing for 120 min.

Good lord, Sheri Shepard... really? [link]

This is what happens when you demonize gay men on national television - who do you think will be doing your wardrobe, hair, and makeup?

Ooh, good point, Matt. Let that be a lesson to her!

I won one of my Oscar pools! I got 21 of 24 categories right, and I beat the 2nd place person by one. I can thank Meryl Streep's win and my decision to pick her at the last minute. I think I went with Viola Davis in my other pool.

I also stayed up until the bitter end, even though I knew better. Oh well, almost no one is at work today, maybe I will nap.

Also, I made Lemon Meringue pie last night and brought it to work this AM. There is no one else on my floor but me. (And one other person who hasn't been in his office all morning.) Sigh. I'll have to bring it down to the staff lounge downstairs. It's just as well, the meringue is all weepy. It does taste pretty awesome, if I have to say so myself.
