As most of you probably know by now, I was, once again, snubbed by the Academy this year. No Oscar for Scott. Every year I tune in and watch them give away the little gold statues to various people who have done various things well throughout the previous year. Every year I wonder, "Should I go? Should I be there in person, just in case I win?" I never go, however, because I know I couldn't handle the pressure of the red carpet. I would cry if Joan Rivers insulted my outfit on television. So I sit at home and watch and wonder, "Will they pick me this year? I wonder what category I'll win?"
For the past several years I've always figured I might win Best Director. I've been a Director of various departments at two different companies for quite a while. Ang Lee won, not me. He directs movies. I have to admit, he is pretty good. I loved Sense and Sensibility and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Still, I'm pretty good too. Maybe next year.
I apologize to any of you who tuned in to the show in case I won. I feel like I've let you down. Let's not give up hope, though. There's always next year.
I shouldn't be so self-centered, though. What about you guys? Did any of you win this year?
Later. Love.
P.S. - I posted a couple of new short posts on my cogito writing site. Check them out, if you'd like. Thanks for stopping by.
