Two days back-to-back...isn't that a treat for you!

While I am over the moon about the upcoming inauguration of President Obama, I will be in the comfort of my warm home watching this historic moment on HD. That means, I can see every spectator on the mall, every Senators nose hair, every-damn-thing. When we watch sports, I can see the damn grass grow on the football field and the laces on the baseball. Attendees of the swearing in - you've been warned. Don't make me have to put you on blast for pickin your damn nose. The HD police will be posting it here!!!

DC, meanwhile, has gone fuckin nuts! Its going to be the Kennedy Center Honors/Howard Homecoming/Million Man March on steriods! I had no intentions of coming into the city - plans I made abundantly clear to my boss, my husband, and anyone that would listen on November 5th. I love the Obamas! I helped make and witnessed history. Hell, I even understand the want and need to participate and/or watch the parade. But I will be at home, crying tears of joy in my pj's. And when someone asks - Yeah, I was there. The day before and the day after. At work.

Staying in line with the glitzy glam world of celebrity and over the topness...I stayed up and watched the Golden Globes on Sunday. "Hello...hello...mama talkin'!" if I can find it, will be my mother's ringtone! Hysterical. Now we know what its like to be Diddy. Oops, my bad, Marc and the twins. I made a comment to hubby about my eye candy being in full effect. He shut me down. But anyway - Brad and Angie. Mark Wahlberg. Johnny Depp. Colin Farrell. And although I personally am not a fan of HERS, Beyonce and Jay always look very elegant at these events. Everyone looked really nice and behaved, um, alright - I guess. Mickey Roarke is off the chain - but from the man who brought you Wild Orchid's - what did you expect? Some of the cocaine jokes and personal attacks were a bit much (a la Sascha Baron Cohen) but whatever...I don't work in that town, you do! Deal with it. I haven't watched awards shows in many, many years but thought the GG were a nice return after last years writers strike "announcements". Wasn't feeling Drew Barrymore's 80's hair though I love her!
