Did you guys watch the Oscars last night? My favorite part is the red carpet, but I was kind of excited for the actual ceremony this year since I’ve seen a bunch of the movies. Usually I’m lucky to have seen one or two, but going into last night I’d watched Winter’s Bone, Inception, Toy Story 3, The Social Network, and The King’s Speech.
My thoughts:
- Favorite dresses were Cate Blanchett, Amy Adams, and the red dress that Anne Hathaway wore on the red carpet.
- I was so pleased that The King’s Speech won so many awards. Out of the nominated films I saw this year, it was by far my favorite, and Colin Firth was superb.
- While I adore James Franco and Anne Hathaway, it was painful for me to watch them host.

New music alert! Rose told me last week that I needed to check out Radiohead’s new album, The King of Limbs. I did and I love it! It’s not “dance” or “electronica”, though it may sound that way at first. It’s actually really soulful in my opinion. I should also add that if you’re new to Radiohead, you should know that like Charles Dickens, it’s not the easiest to jump into. Give yourself some time; a lazy afternoon perhaps?
