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.

New Year's Eve
Happy New Year's Eve everyone! And Happy New Year to all of my friends in Europe!
I had a nice day off from work. I finally made it to see "Black Swan" and am sad to say that I don't see what all the fuss is about. What a weird movie. I love Natalie Portman, and she'll probably get heaps of awards, but seeing her with dimply poultry flesh and sprouting wings just did not do a lot for me. I think they tried a bit too hard to take us on a psycho-sexual thrill-ride.
My other accomplishment for the day was to buy a new pair of running shoes. My resolution for the upcoming year is to engage in at least 30 minutes of cardiovascular activity per day. Even when it's raining. That seems like an easier resolution to keep than being nice and cheerful to strangers.
I'm now watching South Carolina play Florida State in the Chick-fil-a Bowl (formerly Peach Bowl) in Atlanta. It looks like it's going to be a long night for the Gamecocks, but it's still early.
I hope everyone has a great evening. If you're out on the roads, please be safe and refrain from drinking and driving.
