I wasn’t planning to be online during the Golden Globes Awards tonight. But I think I’ll blog for a while anyway - it depends on how boring the early parts of the show are. I’m really hoping that Lord of the Rings: Return of the King wins some awards tonight - especially Best Picture. The whole trilogy deserves recognition and not to win for this final segment of the story, when they didn’t for the first two, would be awful.

I’m putting my VCR to good use, taping Cold Case and Alias, both of which are new episodes.

More to come…

UPDATE (8:13): Best Supporting Actress Movie (Drama) - Renee Zellwegger for Cold Mountain. This may sound catty, but why that plain hairdo? Interesting dress that I’m sure looks much different IRL - not as flattering on TV, I think.

UPDATE (8:47): Meryl Streep won for Best Actress in Angels in America. Was that last dig at President Bush necessary? Please.

Sarah Jessica Parker wins again for Sex and the City - a show that should have been removed from television after the 1st season, imho.

UPDATE (9:11): Best Drama, Television - 24. Yay! It is a great show and I’m so glad that The West Wing didn’t win. I like TWW, but it’s not what it was in years past.

(9:22pm): Frodo (Elijah Wood) just introduced ROTK as a Best Pic nominee and Howard Shore won for Best Musical Score. Yay! Really, the music for the whole trilogy is magnificent. And he just won again for Into the West - Best Original Song. Cool, I thought Sting might win.

(9:56pm): My butt is getting numb from my desk chair. It’s not that comfortable. So I’ll be logging off and moving to my softer sofa. More tomorrow, I’m sure.
