Weekend Rewind

We haven't done one of these in a good long while, have we?

I was battling something from Thursday on, so, on Saturday I skipped out on dance and went to see This Means War. Ok, I have the sense of humor of a 15 year old boy, but my gosh, it was hilarious. HILARIOUS. And Reese Witherspoon was darling as always. I want to be her when I grow up.
Sunday morning I had The Cowtown Half. Which, I'll be honest, I didn't really want to run. I haven't been sleeping very well, have just been really down and meh, so, the thought of driving over an hour and then running a course I don't really like wasn't exactly ideal.

But, I saw my fave Dallas runner That Pink Girl before the race and because she's a freaking badass, she was doing the ultra AGAIN--and heck, if she's gonna go run 31 miles I can deal with 13.1.


Was my worst race, but, whatever, it was done. Bigger and better things in Madrid!

Then, of course, it was Oscar night!! Squee!!

I know I was so short and sweet about the Golden Globes, but, sorry, I'll be a bit more long winded here. Apologies.

The Mara sisters crack me up. I haven't seen Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, so, I can't comment on Rooney's acting, I mean, hell, she was nominated for a damn Oscar, but, she bugs the daylights out of me. Super awkward--and not in that funny Zooey Deschanel way. No, more like "just let me handle your interviews because no" way. Big sister Kate got the looks and the charisma in that family.
Can we discuss the cast of Bridesmaids? I just love them. Freaking hilarious women. And I adore Ellie Kemper. Which y'all already know.

I about died laughing when Rose Bryne and Melissa McCarthy busted out their drinking game. "Scorsese!"
So, Melissa McCarthy and Jenny McCarthy are cousins--I bet holiday dinners in that family are a riot!

And while I always do enjoy some celebrity trainwrecks and gorgeous dresses, there were two very important things missing from last night:

Hugh Jackman.
Remember when he hosted? That was awesome. I love Billy Crystal, he's hilarious and a damn legend, but, Hugh is just so pretty.

And not enough Colin. Never enough Colin. The 2011 Oscars will always be the best because SO MUCH COLIN FIRTH.
And, unrelated to all things Oscar, here is our affirmation for today: Love yourself for the beautiful person YOU are.

Others from last week are:
You Are Enough
You Are Joy
There is Immeasurable Strength In You
I Will Live With Grace
Don't Stop Believing (I know).

I read somewhere that it takes seven positives to cancel out one negative, so, we're almost to one! Let's keep it up!
