Yet another quickie!

Because I need to prepare a lesson to teach a seven-year-old how to read English (heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelp), take a shower, dry my hair, call the householders' association to find out where the hell is the main water pipe, and oh yeah, get dressed.

First off, I keep loving the L-Word. Which sort of blows my mind away, when I think back to the season premiere. If Joey hadn't kept downloading, I would have signed off that show because of that premiere. But it's actually become good! I swear. And Alan Cumming wasn't even in this one, so really.

Then - we watched Transamerica, which was actually rather disappointing. I didn't dislike it, but I didn't love it either. (Although the kid is hot. Just sayin'. He sort of looks like a mix of Stuart Townsend, Daniella Sea and Billy Crudup. Yum.) There were lots of good things, but it simply didn't take me in, and there was nothing really WOW about it. Felicity rocks, though, but what's new?

And she looked ever so beautiful at the Oscars. "Ladies, gentlemen. ...Felicity." Heee! We've only seen the first half hour of them so far, we'll watch the rest tonight I think, but I still wanted to say a couple words about them. Other than "I love Jon Stewart" and "oh god George will you marry me?"

Okay, so BBM didn't win Best Picture. It still got a handful of nominations, and a couple actual Oscars, so jumping up to say that the Academy didn't get them the Best Picture award because they're all horribly conservative bigots is just beyond me.

I'm slightly miffed that Crash won all the same, but not because I think BBM should've. I didn't enjoy BBM as much as the rest of the world, as you might recall, so I wasn't rooting for it much. I wasn't rooting for any movie, truth be told, because this is the Oscars, I don't expect much of anything from them. But if I had been rooting, out of the three nominees I've seen? It would've been Good Night and Good Luck.

Not Crash. Crash is overrated, I think, because it's so expected and obvious from beginning to end. Honestly. It was good, it just wasn't near anything people are making it up to be. Blah. But like I said, this is the Oscars. I've long since stopped believing they and I would ever see eye to eye on anything.

I should look into getting my hands on the latest Empire awards, though. Hmm.

And finally, elite transcribed a 2004 Alan interview given after I, Robot, for which you should all thank her and then some. In which we learn that Alan wanted to be a hotel manager when he was a kid (um... okay, Alan, whatever) and which makes me want to let him know that my ovaries are there should he need them. Any time, mate.

I now have an hour to do everything I'm supposed to be doing. Ready steady go, me.
