Oscars 2013: Will Win, Should Win, Could Win

That is all. -
I am Sick
My head, sinuses, throat, eyes, ears and back are all killing me this morning.
Do not know if this is because it is Spring or because I am about to get older... -
gads...
Yep.
So, things are really looking like they are going to royally suck when late April comes. It appears as though I am going to be forced into a two-week long conference of sorts that I have no desire to attend.

Where's Spring?
Seriously?
It's like northern Louisiana somehow managed to skip from winter to summer and back to winter all within a week. This ain't right. -
Allergies.
Pollen.
Mold and mildew.
Trees and weeds and grass.
It's all conspiring to kill me.
