I Can't Believe it's been 10 Days

Time goes so fast. I've been so busy with Facebook that I haven't had a chance to write. I've been planting, laying mulch, chasing Dallas and knitting. Oh, and watching TV.
Last week we saw Duplicity at the movies and Sunday we saw the Uninvited. They were both pretty good. It's been cold here but it's warming up. Today was beautiful, especially for planting.

The Golden Globe Awards

The Golden Globes were on TV Sunday evening. The best part is the 'red carpet' before the show. The show was boring in a way...the speeches were too long, as usual. I saw most of the movies that were up for awards. I didn't know which movie I'd want to win. I liked them all. Leonardo and Brad didn't get an award. I was disappointed that Leonardo didn't get it. He was fantastic in Revolutionary War. Great actor. I was glad to see Steven Spielberg win the Cecil B DeMille award.
What a bunch of great movies he's made over the years. He deserved it. I didn't see The Reader but I saw the rest of the movies that were up for best drama. I liked them all. I thought Sean Penn did a great job in Milk.

The movies, (not in catagories or winning awards) that I saw were:
In Bruges- I liked it
The Wrestler- I liked it.
Mamma Mia- Loved it
Burn After Reading- Loved it-bought the DVD (cheap on Ebay)
Vicky Cristina Barcellona- I liked it
Curious Case of Benjamin Button- Too long but I still liked it. Read the book.
Revolutionary War- Loved it
Frost/Nixon- I liked it
Milk- Liked it. Loved Sean Penn
Doubt- I liked it. Love the actors
Burn After Reading- Loved it
Slumdog Millionaire- Loved it
Tropic Thunder- Loved it
Dark Knight- Loved Heath Ledger
Wall-E- Didn't like it at all


I guess I need to watch more HBO. I only saw True Blood and I loved it.

That's it for the Golden Globe Awards. I wonder if any other movies will win the Academy Awards.

Computers drive me crazy!!!

The last few days have been driving me computer crazy! I've had the problem of internet 'crash' for a long time and hate it. Then the other day, my sister's emails came without her name and it was all a bunch of letters with her words mixed in. Very frustrating. And none of my mail was going to my friend, Vivian. I thought she was in the hospital or something because she didn't answer my mail. I finally called her. She didn't get any of them. So after trying different things and trying to contact help, I gave up and closed my Incredimail because I didn't have the problems in the regular email on Internet Explorer! It cleared up my email but I liked Incredimail. But, now I can't open my music provider, Limewire! Ohhh, the frustration. So I have to take it out on my blog to bitch. There, now I feel better...well, not really. But I can pretend.

On a good note, I watched a special on Natalie Wood last night on TV. It was really good. I wish they'd bring back some of her movies on TV instead of the same movies like Dances With Wolves, Shawshank Redemption and a few others. Oh well, maybe the TV networks are having the same problems with their networks that I have with mine!

Back to Natalie, I didn't know that she had a real fear of being in water! The weird thing is that she was in water in a few of her movies. And then she drowned. That's still a mystery.

So, last night was the Country singing contest which there are only two good singers, tonight is the best talent show, which is interesting. Sure isn't anything on TV this summer. I can't wait until the fall shows start! Except I don't want fall to get here any too soon.

That's all, folks!
