Here come the Oscar's

Well it is day 3 since the Olympic torch was blown out by all those winded speeches. Does anyone really care what is said at the closing ceremonies? We just want to see the athletes and the festivities, so shut them up and bring it on.
Ok enough about the past and let's look forward to what has always been one of my most favourite times of the year, yes it is the Oscar's.
Ever since I can remember I have loved them. I love the red carpet, even though I could care less about fashion. I love the whole spectacle of it. I used to wish that I could one day be in those bleachers watching the stars go by, or better yet be a seat filler. Now just imagine you filling in the seat of Jack Nicholson, Tom Hanks or Meryl Streep. How cool would that be for them to come back and say "excuse me, but your in my seat". It's not that I am obsessed with the actual stars, I wouldn't even know what to say if I ran into one. I just love the whole history of it all.
Every year I have some friends over to watch the event. We start with chocolate martini's among other drinks. There is always a really nice meal with wine and of course a dessert to follow. I make a pool for everyone to enter and then as always, I win it. It is my evening and  I love every minute of it.
So this Sunday I want to listen to the speeches and see the glitz and glamour, because this Sunday the speeches really matter.
