Quick, lend me a gown - I'm going to the Academy Awards

Every year as I settle in with my bathrobe, my trough of popcorn and liter bottle of Mountain Dew to watch the Academy Awards on TV I think to myself, "Why aren't I there?" What do those beautiful, rich, thin celebrities have that I don't have?" I mean besides good looks, money and a small ass? Well, I'm about to find out, since the nice people at Kodak, who are sponsoring the Oscars, have invited me to be their guest in the Red Carpet bleachers and to attend the viewing at the El Capitan theater afterward.

That's right, people -- apparently you don't need a Judith Leiber bag or a size-0 gown to hobnob with the stars. Well, technically I won't be anywhere near the stars, I'll just be frantically screaming their names from up above in the bleachers. But I did have to pass a security check to be approved for admittance, and I'm just grateful they didn't see those overdue library books or that shrine to Bradley Cooper in my office, the one with the burning candles and the statue made out of my tears and clumps of hair.

So look for me in the crowd on Sunday, March 7. I may or may not be the one wearing the bathrobe.

  13. It's going to be a little on the chilly side. Wear your flannel jammies under the robe. I'll be looking for you!

  14. Awesome. I aspire to be as cool as you one day!

    I say, don't wear the bathrobe and instead be glamorous and get discovered and get your own tv show!
