2010 oscar nominees from the motherhood standpoint

Best Picture Nominees:

Avatar DD (Digitally enhanced by the nursing mother.)

The Hind Side (A story of poop, diaper rash and destiny. Wait, I meant Desitin.)

The-strict 9 (An intense drama depicting the 9 sins that result in time out. 1- No saying "no". 2- No hitting your sister. 3- No dumping cups of water out of the tub. 4- No putting things in the toilet. 5- No flailing like a worm on the floor. 6- No spitting. 7- No sucking on batteries. 8- No unlocking the door and going out the front door to play in the street. And finally 9- no touching your poop.)

An Early Education (Starring: the ABC's, Shapes, Colors, Numbers and Animal Sounds)

The Hurt Rocker (Tag line: A mother holds her weeping child after an intense fall and gently chants, "It's okay, it's okay.)

Inglorious Breasts (Starring Brad Tit.) Okay that one is a little racy but still funny. Admit it.

Precious: Based on the novel Quiet Time by Mother of Two

A Delirious Man (A gripping tale about the time Daddy tried to do Mommy's job for more than an hour.)

Pick Up (A film on a constant, repeating loop.)

Gum in your Hair (Starring: Peanut Butter, Crisco and Scissors)



Check out the real nominees here. It's true that 99.99 percent of my life is consumed by that divine virus known as baby-itus and that I could really care less who wins or loses on March 7th. But it's also true that the tenth of a percent relishes, momentarily, in the red carpet fashion every year.

I confess I'm a blog stocker of yours. Came across your bloggity blog a while back. We were in the same ward for a couple weeks before we moved, and we went to the cannery and stood next to each other while canning beans. Small world...

Haha. Reading this is about as much Oscar-ish as I'll get. We don't tune in to that kind of stuff. But I definitely don't mind seeing what they wear, the good, the bad and the down right ugly!
