Another Saturday Morning

Didn't work this week, well not much. Did a day and was supposed to work yesterday as well but Mother Nature intervened.  Fire. Raging fire near the area I was going to scout. Yikes. This year is going to be horrific fire wise as CA is experiencing it's worse drought yet. Scary and given global warming I suspect this is only the beginning of tough water rationing.

The NFL Championship games occur tomorrow. Peyton vs Brady in the AFC game and Niners vs SeaHawks in the NFC game. I'm nervous yet look forward to watching both games and screaming my head off.  Rapture.

Have seen a number of the Oscar nominated films via DVD. Fabulous. No a fan of American Hustle although Amy Adams and Christian Bale were outstanding.

Cate Blanchett was marvelous in Blue Jasmine and I think my choice for the AA.
Also loved the fact that my all time favorite SF haunt, The Ramp, was used as a location in the film.  Been going to The Ramp for over 25 years and it made me grin ear to ear to see it in the film. I also love Dame Dench in Philomena and Meryl in Osage County. Then again both of these women amaze each time they are on the screen. Simply brilliant actors!

Watched 12 Years a Slave last night and at this point it is my favorite film. Thought the storyline interesting, acting superb, and it was well crafted. 

Of the nominees I've seen, must say Jared Leto is amazing in Dallas Buyer's Club. My favorite performance so far. Followed by Barkhad Abdi is Captain Phillips. Excellent acting debut. Excellent. 

Anxious to see Nebraska with Bruce Dern.  

Sun still has peaked over the horizon but darkness has given way to pre dawn light. Time to pay bills and start my laundry. Yep, another Saturday morning.
