Welcome to 2011.
I wish I could say that I brought the New Year in with a bang, but it was really a rather low-key affair. Just how I like it.
After watching South Carolina get knocked off by the Florida State Semen-Holes, I tuned into Andy Cohen's NYE celebration on Bravo.
Andy, can I PLEASE get an invite for next year's party (or my own reality show)? It was quite entertaining. The highlight had to be the impromptu wedding of Giggy Vanderpump and Grandma Wrinkles. I don't think I'll explain any further, it's worth searching the web for pictures of the bride and groom.
Today was a beautiful start to the year. It's finally warm again, probably in the mid-60's. I hope it remains this way until spring.
Continuing with my Oscar countdown, I saw "The King's Speech" today. It was much better than that Swan movie, and Colin Firth is most definitely Oscar-worthy. I'm not quite sure what the next movie on my list should be, but I've definitely reached my limit for the weekend.

Monica and David
What a beautiful autumn day in South Carolina! Still warm enough to sport a flimsy t-shirt, yet just cool enough to make my nipples perky. Nice!
For those who might accuse me of constantly watching complete and utter trash on television, I'm happy to report that I began the day with a very interesting HBO documentary called "Monica and David". The title characters, two individuals with Down syndrome, met at their adult skills program and subsequently fell in love. This documentary follows their wedding and newlywed life.
I don't have any friends or family affected by Down syndrome, so I found the program very interesting. It brought about many feelings and emotions---heartwarming, heartbreaking, funny, and sad. All of which make me somewhat uncomfortable, but I still would highly recommend viewing. It's only an hour of your life and provides a different perspective on life and love.
I then attempted to undo all intellectual and emotional progress by watching a repeat of Andy Cohen's "Watch What Happens Live" on Bravo. This little fella and his reality-programming empire never cease to amaze me. He's such a crazy-eyed little lush, and I have fantasies of watching him get into a drunken bitch-fight with Anderson Cooper.
I'm now ending the day by watching the Tennessee-Alabama game on ESPN. South Carolina is playing Vanderbilt in Nashville, but the broadcast quality and commentary are pretty poor. Even without my direct viewership support, I'm still confident that they can rebound from last week's loss and take the lead in the SEC East division.
