My fingers are tired from the blogging marathon I performed last night. Woo. That was strenuous. Four hours of live blogging during the Oscars. It was fun, too.

It used to cost me an afternoon of alientating my colleagues! In Australia, they delay the ‘live’ telecast to 8 pm Oz time (8 hours late), so results start filtering in through web feeds and radio news around 1 pm on the Monday. I needed to put myself into a ‘media blackout zone’ and not watch or hear ANY news all afternoon, so I could go home (trying hard NOT to look at billboards or overhead chatter) and settled down in front of the TV with dinner and wine, and watch al the results unfol, unspoiled by prior knowledge of who won.
Jesus, Oscar night always costs me an awful lot. I mean, it used to be a delivery of one cheap Chinese dinner. But nowadays, with China’s economy growing like a social disease in the 1960s, I have to order twice during those five hours in front my screen. Worth sitting there and swallowing food from the east? Well, it sure beats therapy!
