gonna spend the night at my favorite local bar. Best friend is the bartender and it's a bit of a tradition now. Going to personally drive to the suburbs and TP's PSH's Mom's house if he wins. He's a local (Rochester, NY). I know it doesn't sound very mature, but that's just how it's going to be. I do believe it wont be necessary as I'm feeling a Brokeback sweeping upset in all categories.
maybe I'm biased. Watching it right now. Ennis should get his ass in the tent RIGHT NOW.
here's a fun drinking game ...
Oscars: 'I'd like to thank Bud and Smirnoff'
A drinking game to get you through those Oscar lulls

Personal experience has shown that extended exposure to Gwyneth Paltrow can cause migraines, dizziness and the phenomenon in which your brain shuts down and literally falls out of your head.
Fair warning: Paltrow exposure will likely reach dangerous levels during this year's Academy Awards ceremony on Sunday, March 5.
Actually, self-important presenters, horrific musical numbers and Melissa Rivers are enough to make anyone drink.
So to keep you from going nuts Shirley MacLaine-style, we've assembled this Oscars drinking game.
Just watch the show with a cocktail in hand, and for once actually look forward to Paltrow talking.
Take one drink:
# whenever recipients ignore the music signifying that they should wrap up their speeches.
# every time an award winner starts walking offstage in the wrong direction.
# whenever the camera spots Reese Witherspoon in the audience and Ryan Phillipe thrusts himself into the shot.
# every time George Clooney looks smug.
# anytime Jon Stewart makes fun of Republicans.
# when a presenter stares blankly at the teleprompter or misses a cue. (Get ready when Keanu is up.)
# when an American speaks with a faux British accent. (Pace yourself when Paltrow is talking.)
# if Jamie Foxx sings or pimps his album.
# anytime a presenter or winner refers to someone famous with a name that shows how "in" they are (like "Bobby DeNiro" or "Tony Hopkins.")
Take two drinks:
# if anyone looks remotely interested during the speech by the Best Documentary Short Subject winner(s).
# every time a winner says someone is "my rock."
# anytime a joke bombs. (Better make this two sips.)
# when they show clips of those who've passed away during the year and you or someone you're with says, "Wow. That person died?"
# when several unknowns walk onstage to accept an award when only one or two were named.
Chug:
# if Peter Jackson's hair is combed.
# if Matt Dillon wins and makes even a remotely intelligent speech.
# if anyone interacts with a CGI or animated character.
