And the academy award goes to....

I've been having a kind of lousy week with work. My boss has me in a noose and is basically threatening to tighten it. I understand that he needs his district to do better, but subtly threatening to fire someone who you know isn't actually part of the problem, seems kinda lousy. So, I've been super stressed out about that, and have slowly been looking for a new job, but it's kind of hard though to find a stable jobs, that I qualify for, that make as much money as I need. Meh. Hopefully, I will be able to get my CE scores up, and I won't have to worry about this anymore.
So despite all the stress at work, the rest of my life is going pretty damn well. I'm drawing more. Drawn a few pictures for local Seattle friends, and have a bunch more I want to draw when I get the chance. I have been attempting to eat better and exercise more, and am making a bit of progress. Two steps forward, one step back. Lol. So yeah, things are pretty damn good on the home front as it were. Also, last night Stephen and I had an Oscar party; well actually, it was more of a get together then a party, but still, it was fun.
We just had a few friends come over, drink, eat, and watch the Oscars. We invited a lot of people including some of our coworkers, but a lot of people already had plans just cause we kind of decided to do it at the last minute. Really though, our apartment is pretty small, so if everyone had come over that we invited it would have been a really packed house. Lol. But yeah, Derek, Ashleigh, Cristi, Damien, Jin, Nightcat and Kovu all managed to stop by and hang out for a bit. I had a lot of fun, got really drunk, and tried something I have never tried before. The thing I hadn't tried was a fairly interesting experience. Lol. So thank you Damien for helping me with that, and also a big thank you to everyone who came and hung out with us. You guys are all extremely awesome!
Also, as for the awards themselves, I was really happy that Christoph Waltz won for best supporting actor. I was really happy that UP won best animated (Although I did really love Fantastic Mr. Fox) And, I was happy that Hurt Locker won best picture. Most of the other awards I didn't care much about, oh and NPH's opening musical number was fucking fantastic! NPH will always be one of my favorite celebrities!

And Sandra Bullock won best and worst actress in the same year. Kinda a feat...

She really did do an excellent job playing a more serious role though. Very good movie.
