I watch the Oscars (if I'm allowed...mom doesn't do awards shows) because it's my industry and I know several people who are up for awards. Of course, ours aren't the glamour awards so virtually no one I know gets to accept on TV (many of them were given out already, and are the ones that get a mention somewhere in the middle). But as a friend put it the other day, "The Oscars are like the Superbowl for movie people, and the Tonys are the Superbowl for theatre people." We're both. Of course, we couldn't really care less about what people wear, or who shows up with who, or what hairstyle they choose...we just want actors from "our" movies to win. ;)
Tonight I really am doing QB's #recipe8674, along with some broccoli (frozen, probably just microwaved). I was going to do some rice, but our carbs have been on the high side lately so I'll have to find another vegetable instead.
Edit:
Tonight there is supposed to be a presentation for one of our own, though. She was killed in Georgia filming "Midnight Rider" recently when she was struck by a train. Sarah Jones was 27, and an assistant camera operator on the movie. I'm sure there will also be tributes (and rightly so) for actors who were lost in the last year...but the list of IATSE members lost each year numbers in the thousands. Rarely do we get a mention, because unlike actors, we are "just doing a job".
