Well, the annual Oscar party has come and gone. And, as usual, I lost. This year we scaled it way back and I thought there might be a slight chance for a win, but, alas, it was not to be.
Oh, Oscar, why do you elude me? What have I ever done to you? I throw you a party every year. I transform my pathways to emulate your homage to the stars. I even clean my house for you. What more do you want from me?
Each year we all fill out a ballot for the 24 categories, throw in a buck and count down to the winner. Cheryl, my daughter, was the winner this year with twenty correct categories...Bravo!!! I did absolutely no pre-party investigation and, literally, checked boxes on my ballot willy-nilly. I suppose this could be the reason for my loss. I did get nine right. Woo Hoo!!!
This blog celebrates Oscar parties, present and past.
