~Money and Movies and Music, Oh My!

MONEY AND MOVIES AND MUSIC, OH MY!

So, the Grammy's came on tonight. For the most part I enjoyed it. I just have one question... no, make that two. First of all I know Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony are married, but does she think that automatically makes her a better singer? Able to keep up with him? Marc has a great voice and Jennifer...not so much! I personally feel that she ruined that song. Marc put so much feeling into the song and she was so flat and unfeeling. Almost as if she had no clue what she was singing about.

And for my next question, was it just me, or did they pick the very wrong people to collaborate on the song for theTsunami relief fund? They sounded horrible together. Individually they all did what they do, but together, they seemed confused and as if they were trying to outdo each other, like they were more concerned with trying to be heard rather than harmonizing. There was no harmony among them, they definitely weren't a "We Are The World".

All hail the Queen (Latifah) though. She did a pretty good job hosting and she looked beautiful!

For me the night was missing a one Ms. Aguilera, or even a Mr. Timberlake or a Mr. Chasez... or even a Jonny Lang or someone, but for the most part I had fun. The odd thing is that by the third hour of it, I found myself becoming incredibly bored. Not with the show, but just bored. I think I ate too much candy, which in turn made me sick to my stomach. I'm sucking on a Jolly Rancher as I type this very sentence so obviously I don't learn my lessons.

I'm only writing now because I am still very bored. I need something good on in the background to help me concentrate. I usually watch a show like The New Detectives, or I,Detective or Forensic File or American Justice or something, but for some reason none of my channels are playing them. Court TV is playing COPS and A&E is playing Windtalkers. I haven't a clue what Discovery Channel is playing, but I know it's not one of my shows. Usually on a Sunday I can count on Biography channel to play some Poirot or Midsommer Murders, but not right now.

Since nothings good on TV that I want playing in the background, I'd normally put on one of my much beloved DVD's, but at the moment I'm extremely bored of all of them too. Even the ones I just bought a couple days ago. I don't have many DVD's (as in hundreds), but I have enough to choose from, but yet... nothing. Let's see, I'll make a list of DVD's I have!

Of course I have some movies on VHS that I haven't gotten around to buying them on DVD yet, like Pitch black. It's like how can you have The Chronicles of Riddick and not have Pitch Black? I absolutely LOVE Pitch Black... but not enough to pop in the VHS right now. I guess I'm getting enough out of talking about them right now though.

Now writing down how many VHS' I have is just going too far. Actually I have more CD's than movies because a few years ago that's all I would buy is CD's. The incredibly sad thing is I have close to 600 CD's, yet when I'm in the mood to listen to something, I go through the same thing as I do with my movies... complain about there being nothing to listen to.

Lately all I've been listening to though is John Legend's cd. Before him it was Gwen Stefani, before her it was Toby Lightman and before her it was Gavin DeGraw. Before Gavin it was my Merry Gentry books on CD... or should I say books on itunes?

Anyhow. For the past couple of days I've been thinking about redecorating actually. When I have an idea abouthow to do things, it's like I need to get it done quickly or else I tend to think about it constantly, as I'm doing now. I bought a burgundy window scarf that I put up over the dining room entrance way, and now I have an idea to put on up on the wall behind my huge wall unit/entertainment center, but a black one, instead of burgundy. But before I can buy it, I have to wait for the bank to send me my new ATM card because I'm all about the online shopping.

I'm actually getting a bit sleepy right now, so I'm gonna go add more movies to my wish list on Amazon.com before I fall out.

Oh yeah, Happy Valentines Day to those of you blessed enough to matter to someone special.
