- In everyday news, I used my awesome new dishwasher for the first time, CLEANED, played Mexican Train with my study group after eating BBQ (thanks Sarah and Paul for the fun game!), went to church, played a bit of tennis, and saw Slumdog Millionaire (fabulous!).
- In pet news, I enjoyed hearing about Sam's new puppy Arney and spent plenty of time cuddling with Wentworth.
- In national news, I watched the inauguration and felt inspired and hopeful.
- In entertainment news, I got a kick out of the Oscar nominations announced today. I was surprised to see Robert Downey Jr.nominated for his performance in Tropic Thunder. I am rooting for Penelope Cruz (Vicky Cristina Barcelona) and Kate Winslet (The Reader). Of the lesser-seen documentary and foreign film nominations, Man on Wire and Waltz with Bashir are on my to-see list.
