This is your moment

I love the Oscars. I love any awards ceremony, except a sporting award cermony. Yawn.com.

I also love weddings. I am the girl who beeps my horn or waves at the bridal car going past. I remember how many people did that on my wedding day and how much I loved it.

I think brides are magical, like new babies and spring.

Not that I am getting all creepy and saying that everyone should be married but when the intention is right and the mood is love then weddings are wonderful.

I cry when people get what they want; radio competitions, game shows and an Oscar. I cried when Ms Sandra Bullock won this year. I like to think I know talent. I often pick the winners on Idol at the beginning of the show. I knew Nicole Richie was beautiful underneath the layer of skank she was rockin' and I knew Melissa George had a stealth bomber of ambition in her backpack when she left Summer Bay for L.A.

Sandra had it and I knew it. I knew it from Speed, the leaden Hope Floats and the even worse Miss Congeniality 2. I banged her drum for a long time and felt almost proud as I did my book edits and watched the awards.

Then I wept again for the gracious Kathryn Bigelow, who didn't mention her gender once during her speech but still looked overwhelmed by the gravity of the moment.

We all have our 15 minutes, the choice we have is with what we do with them.

Choose wisely.

(For the record - Sandra is a Leo, with a Moon and Ascendant in Aquarius.)

I thought Kathryn Bigelow just looked so tense and overwhelmed. I love the Bullock-ster! Always makes me laugh. Must be her wacky Aqua rising...
