Hello Sharkees,

Isn't it a beautiful icy, rainy winter day (at least it is here in NYC)? I feel like running and jumping in the puddles, and not screaming at cab drivers who try to hit me, or people who push me on the subway. Why so chipper, you ask? Well, The Golden Globes nominations were announced this morning and I was actually pleasantly surprised to find some of my favorites on the list (Californication!) That never happens. I'm usually screaming and throwing things at the Emmy and Oscar nominations, but The Hollywood Foreign Press always comes through for me.

Yay!

Boo!
House (I like this show, but it's past its prime), Big Love, Rose Byrne (yawn), Katherine Hiegl (diva), Rachel Griffiths (yawn), Jaime Pressley (grates my nerves)

Are You Freakin' Kidding Me?
Patricia Arquette (you all know how I feel about her), Sally Field (gag me), Debra Messing (This thing getting nominations is still a mystery to me...terrible), The Company (UGH...so awful!)

They Ran Out of Good Nominess
Bryce Dallas Howard (I tried to watch it, stopped after 5 minutes), Queen Latifah (this was SO Hallmark), Ernest Borgnine (pity nom.)
