We had tossed around the idea of linking our Oscar parties, but the one Brian and I were going to host was a much more laid back affair (Bag of Stacey's pita chips and some hummous), plus we had a time difference. (AND some technical difficulties as we decided to pause tv until our 2 guests got there, then everytime we tried to rewind or fast fwd, it would skip ahead to live tv, so I think we missed a lot.) I think we should coordinate next year... maybe we should switch between Chicago and Denver?
Today, I am enjoying looking at pictures from the after parties. My new favorite couple: Sandra and Jesse. Most likable celebrity: Gabourey Sidibe (and her mom who laughed heartily at Steve Martin's joke about his first role being as a poor black child, too). Least likable: Vera Farmiga (or Veal Parmigana as I like to call her. It helps me remember he name.) What am I not getting here? She seems listless to me. And interesting looking at best. Also: Woman I Would Most Like to Age Like: Sigourney Weaver.
