WATCHED THE OSCARS?

I watched to Oscars, well parts of the Oscars
as I kept falling asleep. 
NOTE TO SELF:
Don't watch a tv show you want to see in bed.
Check
So a few things I realized while watching.
1) I love, love, love Ellen Degenerous.
Yep, love her.
She is funny, so funny and the best host I think
the Oscars have ever had. It is why they keep asking her.
2) Jared Leto, never heard of him before last night.
Evidently won his Oscar for supporting role in
DALLAS BUYING CLUB
had the very best speech ever.
He sat near his mother and his speech began
In 1971, there was a teenage girl, who was pregnant with her second child, she was a high school dropout and single mom, but somehow she managed to make a better life for herself and her children … that girl is my mother and she’s here tonight I just want to say ‘I love you mom, thank you for teaching me to dream,” Leto said.
The camera panned to his Mother just as his older
brother rushes to sit next to her and  plant a kiss.
It was the most touching speech for me.
Which brings me to
3) Must watch DALLAS BUYING CLUB…
soon! I had no clue what is was about but after last night,
finding out it was about the AIDS crisis of the 80's and
what one man, given the diagnosis did to help himself and others
with the then, deadly disease.
I lost a cousin I adored to the dreaded AIDS of the 80's and
wish the treatment offered here now was available to him.
In today's world, I know he would still be with us.
Must see this movie.
4) Watching the Oscars I realized I have not seen enough
movies in 2013, there were way too many that I did not know
about and that rarely happens to me while watching the Oscars.
Must see more movies, must see more movies…
Planning on heading there today….
Must see more movies.
Oh and did I say,
I love Ellen?
