Just Like They Watched The Oscars Before Electricity

As many in the Athens Blogosphere are aware, :jenny: and Hamil both had Oscar parties last night. This was convenient because the power went out at Jenny’s just after Antonio Banderas and Carlos Santana performed “Al Otro Lado Del Rio”. Thank god we got to see that. Thankfully, Hamil was able to fill us in on the winners via cell phone as we sat in the dark in front of the candles and the fireplace. I don’t think he was lying to me when he said that Mary-Kate Olsen won for Best Supporting Actress in “New York Minute”. I should totally check that out online. I thought it seemed odd.

So, we sat in the dark and talked about movies which was probably much more enjoyable than watching Hillary Swank and Clint Eastwood accept awards.

In attendence were: (based on seating order) Chris from New York, Stephanie, Chip, Kate, Mary Jessica, Robert, Sanni, Jenny, High Energy Jenny, John, and Shawn.

Many prizes were won but I received my very own copy of “From Justin to Kelly” and MJ and Robert took home “Dream A Little Dream” so I think this Oscar Night will be remembered for at least let’s say, an additional hour and a half at some time in the future.

Favorite quotes from the evening:

“What’s up with you and people from ‘Wings’?”

“I’m like an Oscar Savant”

“Orlando… he’s so cute but so tiny.”

“Duh, Movies are dumb and books are good.”

“I was threatened by Jenny’s party until I realized she wouldn’t actually have the Oscars”.

Stephanie left when she realized the power was not coming back on. But the rest of us were there until about 12:00. Overall, I think the party was a success despite the fact that we missed the last hour of the Oscars. At least we got to see Side Show Bob perform with the Counting Crows. And now that Robert has pointed out that Scarlett Johanson always looks like someone just gave her a complex math problem to solve, I will never see her the same way again.
