It is quite amazing to me how some things just sneak up on you and you don't even realize till it's too late. It finally dawned on me that I must be getting old because (try not to faint) ........ I actually listen to NPR(National Public Radio). I actually like hearing the news and it's pretty cool to be somewhat aware of all the crap going on in our world.

We watched the Oscars the other night and I was seriously bummed. I usually enjoy watching them a lot because there is most often a film in the mix that I care about and root for. Unfortunately, this year was a different story. While I can't say I wouldn't like some of the movies if I had seen them, I was completely unfamiliar with hardly any of the movies. I did enjoy just watching the awards but it just didn't seem the same without a personal favorite in the mix. Maybe next year.....!

I must say, I was thoroughly impressed with James Blunt and his mad skillz. I got home wee bit early today and Cheryl was watching Oprah and he was on it as a special guest or whatever. I really enjoyed his last song he did and his performance was REALLLY excellent.

OMG!!!!!!! They fricken' mothballed the F-14 Tomcat!!!! What kind of a sick world do we live in!!!!! Oh the humanity!

In cooler news, I've been hearing about the new Mars orbiter and how that is progressing. I think it's pretty neat but I've always been interested in the space stuff.
