weekend and the grammys

weekend recap...saw the movie, the last king of scotland. ok, not bad. kinda intense, educational, some tough scenes i couldn't even watch. 7 outta 10. ags played nebraska and won, OF COURSE. next game against tech on tuesday! sunday i went to the gym and was on the treadmill and gotta completely sucked into the movie john q. i had seen it before but it was a long time ago and couldn't remember how it ended. i ended up staying on the treadmill for 59 minutes because i had to finish the movie!!! and yeah, i maybe cried a tiny bit at the end...not full fledge tears...more like my eyes just watered a bit. however, i was on the treadmill at the gym and this was happening. luckily i could just wipe my face with my towel and pass it off as sweat and not the fact that i was crying from the movie. oh and then i spent sunday afternoon waddling around my house bc my body was saying, why the heck did you stay on the treadmill for an hour?

sunday nite was the grammys. as you well know, i love music so i was excited. although a lot of my favorite artists aren't really grammy type nominees, it's still fun to watch all the performances, hope for awkward tv moments, critique bad dresses, etc. here are some of my highlights:
*loved the john mayer, john legend, corinne bailey rae performance.
*smokey robinson - i think he was wearing a woman's shirt. it was glittery, see thru, and lacy.
*shakira - those hips don't lie. wow.
*james blunt, gnarls barkley, rhcp - performances = zzzzzzzz.
*jennifer hudson - ok let's be real honest...what was up with her boobs? the right one was about a year bigger than the other one. hey, you were thinking it too.
*the "my grammy moment" winner who got to sing with JT - amazing job. im pretty sure she's gonna make it now. she got up there and rocked it...looked like it was no big deal to sing in front of thousands of people with JT and TI. big props to her.
*how about quentin tarantino literally yelling out all the names of the nominees? what was he on? i dont care bc it was entertaining for sure.
*most awkward presenting duo - natalie cole and the really old man with a lisp wearing what looked like some sort of shiny suit with asian inspired embellishments. natalie cole is a bit masculine, yeah?
*most awkward moment in general - scarlett johannson asking don henley if he had any advice for her coming out with her first album to which he very simply and abruptly answered, NO. why the heck is scarlett johannson coming out with an album though, that's my question.
*single most great part of the entire nite (in my opinion). the ADORABLE little black boy dancers during chris brown's performance. oh my gosh i about lost it. i don't think they could have been any cuter. i think i yelled out "i want them!"

there were other good moments im probably forgetting but that's what comes to mind now. overall a pretty good show. im looking forward to the oscars in a couple of weeks. ellen is hosting so that should be good. little factoid - did you know that she is 49?? i would never guess...she looks pretty dang good for 49.
