If you're reading this exhausted and at the end of a long week that has demanded a SUPERHUMAN level of endurance from you, I'm crawling and clawing my way to the Finish line right behind you!  I, for one, am grateful to be at the end of it.  

A fresh blanket of snow has covered the little bit of green grass I caught a glimpse of earlier this week.  BRRRRR!  We appear to be in for a cold weekend [here in UT]!  After we spend some time shoveling [and coloring in] the snow, tuning in for the 
◊  red carpet arrivals, 
◊  gossip over gowns [that will be either be famous, or infamous],
◊  memorable musical performances, and 
◊  emotion-filled acceptance speeches of THE OSCARS may be 
      the light-hearted weekend we've needed.  [And, I can't think 
      of a better place to weather a storm than in front of a fireplace!]

     How accurate will your predictions be??

Does the fact that we've seen ALL of the nominated ANIMATED FEATURE FILM nominees and NONE of the BEST PICTURE nominees tell you anything about who rules the box office at our house?!
