Am I the only one who gets REALLY, REALLY nervous when the speeches start going on too long, and then REALLY REALLY embarrassed when they start playing the "get off the stage" music? Watching the Grammys was like watching Fear Factor or the first two weeks of American Idol; I spent most of it just listening, cringing, my head inside my shirt.

Man, they should all hire you to write the speeches and they'd be set. Plus style them. I'm thinking Mirren in one of those glamour girl belt buckles would give the red carpet a much needed kick in the arse.

Happy bday dahlink! Go bonkers.

Wow. Go Texas Day sounds a lot like Cheyenne Frontier Days, only strangers come from all over the world so they can dress like cowpeople. And it runs for 10 days, so if you miss great uncle Herbie from Jersey City wearing his bermuda shorts with his cowboy hat and big buckle on Monday, you'll have another chance to see it on Wednesday, or Friday, or Sunday...

Happy birthday, my beautiful, shiny friend.

You are truly hysterical (in the good way) and I am so glad to know you.

Also? Next week, we're totally doing cake at our usual hangout. Call me whenever the beergarita hangover fades

Hey, it's Saturday, so Happy Birthday!

I don't wear belts--should I still get a belt buckle? Or is it horribly embarrassing that I'm admitting I don't even wear a belt?

Seeing a bull get amorous with his cow-babe was enough to put me off beef for life.

Oscar fashions just aren't fun anymore! Oh, for the days of Bette Midler and Cher.

The speeches make me nervous. It's too obvious who is used to only saying things that other people have written for them! I like Hugh Laurie's speeches though - his Emmy acceptance was witty and fun.

My gal pal is nominated for a nOscar soI will be up just cheering her...
Itislike she is taking us all there...
Does not matter if she wins...But it would be GREAT if she did...(I did post a story of her on my blog a while back...)
It has been a great adventure...

Happy Belated Birthday GcQ! You and my 95-year-old grandma share one. May your life be as long and full as hers.

Acceptance speeches are fine, but it's really all about the red carpet for me.

Diggin' the Glamour Girl belt buckle. As a former ranch kid, belt buckles will forever hold a special place in my heart.

Happy Birthday Weekend!
