Oscars

So tonight's The Big Night. The Oscars.

As you may or may not have heard
oh I'm sorry, have I already mentioned that?(cough)
my sister, actress Mary Birdsong,

















was in the movie The Descendants, with George MF Clooney.
















And as it turns out, The Descendants will be well represented at tonight's Academy Awards. It's up for:
Best Picture
Best Actor - George Clooney
Best Director - Alexander Payne.

Now, Mr. Payne seemed like a very nice man















WHEN I MET HIM
name drop-name drop-name-drop

and you all know my feelings for Georgie
swoon-drool-hot flash













































and I sincerely hope they both win their categories.

But what I want most of all is for The Descendants to win Best Picture.

Because THEN, Mary can have bragging rights on her resume and , oh well pretty much everything the rest of her LIFE, that she was in an Academy Award-winning movie.


And that would be pretty awesome.






Cheer for Mary! Vote for her sister (that would be me)....

  6. I still don't think I've gotten around to seeing this one - need to add it to my watch list! I think I'm pulling for Argo this year - gotta root for the home team since Ben Afleck is a Boston boy. :)

  10. I loved that movie. I watched it on an airplane flying to China to adopt our daughter. My favorite scene was George Clooney running down the street to his friend's house, feet clomping in those docksiders. It was so awkward, so real-life.

    1. She not only met him, they talked, they joked, they laughed. He even kissed her on the top of her head one day in the dressing room. I kid you not.
      Idk about her, but those are some of the best moments of MY life!
