My Weekend.

Friday night
Beyond Sick
• Who knew your Abs could hurt so badly after 5 ½ hrs of vomiting? Who says I need to do crunches? Friday evening was brutal.
• When husbands are sick they lie around and moan and are big babies who are waited on. When wives are ill we still manage to do everything and don’t get near as much lying around moaning time.
• Must admit hubby made me chicken soup – although couldn’t eat for 2 days. But it was a very nice gesture. I opened a can for him. (bad wife) He is the soup king.

Saturday
• I was in a fog and remember very little while awake or not doing the above like Friday night..

Sunday
Denis Leary
• He had a new show this past weekend on Comedy Central that I had on my DVR. Oh my God was this funny. But trust me if you think Ricky Gervais was over the line on the GG do not watch Douchebags and Donuts with Denis Leary. As I lay on the sofa feeling like death this man made me laugh. I so welcomed the happy feeling after days of being so ill. He made me laugh so hard that my abs were killing me. (see above) He offends everyone here. He is the very definition of NOT politically correct. He was extremely offensive to Catholics. Not being one I found it spot on and funny. But I know that others would be highly offended by this. You have been warned.

Golden Globes
• I apparently am one of 3 people in the world who found Ricky Gervais funny. These are the same people who love Kathy Griffin. What is the difference here? I guess at an awards show in front of them you must kiss their ass or else do this only in your stand up act. Don’t get the fuss.

Shallow Fashion Nonsense
• I absolutely love to watch the fashion police shows when these award shows are done. Yes, I am that shallow people. Sure we all know who will be on the worst dressed. But it’s still fun to watch. What I did find humorous is that little guy married to Nicole Kidman.(can’t think of his name – sorry country fans) He looked like a disheveled ragamuffin. His shirt seemed thin and not starched. His shirt needed tucked in better. His tie was so small it was like they grabbed it from the little boys department. (my husband noticed this so it was obvious) He just looked a mess. He was standing next to his perfectly pressed wife and that made it more obvious perhaps. I do love how she will wear heels now vs. when she was married to Cruise. He doesn’t seem to mind that she towers over him. I think that is cool and I honestly like him a lot for just that. It says a lot about him. He appears to be her cheerleader and partner. He seems like a great guy but boy he didn’t look too great.  But it was her night to shine and maybe that was the point. His element is music. This was her nomination and her stage.

Colin Firth
• I didn’t get to see the Kings Speech yet but he’s always great. I have grown to love him more and more after each movie. I really fell in love with him after I saw him on Craig Ferguson and he was so relaxed and less formal and it was such a fun side of him. I also enjoyed when he and his wife spoke to Giuliana (DePandi/Rancic) from E! last night in Italian. His Italian was great. Giuliana had such a look of surprise being that she is from Italy and all 3 of them talked a bit in his wife’s native tongue . I had no idea what the hell they were saying but it’s oh so pretty to hear isn’t it? Love that language, wish I knew more than dirty words.

I hope you're feeling better by now....being sick sucks!

I haven't seen Dennis Leary's latest standup, but will definitely look for it....I love him! I love that he can pick a topic, and beat the crap out of it, until it's dead! HA!

I, too, love Colin Firth in anything! Would have loved to have heard him in Italian! Yummy!

And I don't get why Nicole was jamming her hips at her hubby! I know it's the way models make a pose, hips forward, one leg shooting forward, back arched, head cocked to one side....but when you're standing alone.....not when you're next to your tiny little husband! He tried to put his hand around her waist, but it ended up on her bum! Guess he doesn't mind the height difference!

Feel better....just knowing we will always dress better than Helena Bonham Carter should do it! HA!

Regan - that comment of yours just made me laugh! Both of my slippers as I type this match.

I too noticed the jamming of the hips and the hand on the bum. My husband said her hip bones would cut him. (he hates skinny broads and i love him for that - he loves the likes of Halle, Salma and Sophia with a bit of meat on their bones as he says)

Hum, eating chicken soup and watching tv, sounds like my week-end too minus the sick.

Firstly, sorry that you have been so sick. That really sucks.

I adore Colin Firth and he makes me proud to be British.

I thought Ricky Gervais was funny and think that he didn't say anything that people already don't know through the scandal rags. Only the other day did I read in some crappy paper at the hairdressers that a well known scientologist left his wife and newborn for a private weekend getaway with the boys !

Keith Urban is Nicole K's hubby btw. I love vintage country and not the new stuff so I don't like his music but know him.

Get well soon!
