Did you watch the Oscars?

I admit to watching only part of it, because I didn’t see the movies that were nominated. Of course, now I want to see some of those movies.
I saw Hollywoodland this past weekend and it was pretty good. I didn’t know the story of George Reeves so it was new to me, but I won’t tell the plot or ending. The best part was the old cars from the 50’s in the movie!
American Idol is on right now but so far, no one has impressed me. This year the men just don’t seem to be as strong as in past years.
Ok, I take that back — Sundance Head did “Mustang Sally” and did an incredible job with it. If I had to vote someone off, it would be Sanjaya for sure. He’s cute but his voice just isn’t cutting it. I’d vote for Sundance and Chris for sure. Tomorrow night will be the women’s turn to impress me (and you).
Oh yeah, I didn’t mention that I’m not getting the Firebird. It’s somewhat of a long story, but the bottom line was I didn’t have enough photos of it. I had made a commitment to buy it, but fortunately someone else wanted it so there is no issue. He also has a 1967 Firebird convertible for sale at a great price, but my heart has always wanted an Impala or an old pickup truck, so I’ll wait. It’s not like I can appreciate it at this time of year anyway. And it was that awful orange color!!
Hm, did I mention dad went home? I saw him today and he looked pretty good. He’s still very unsteady on his feet and can’t walk much, but his face looks a lot better, and it’s not just the 25 lb weight loss in the past month.
Speaking of fathers, I emailed someone who did work for me a few years ago to ask how he was and see if he could help with something. I mentioned last time I spoke to him he’d just lost his house in a fire along with his computer and all his work, etc, and hoped things were better. He writes back to tell me his father died this morning. I have timing, huh?
