Oscar time!

Tonight is my Superbowl, and I will miss it for the first time in six or seven years.  In honor of the occasion, I will share with you my predictions for who will win and my opinion on who should win tonight at the Oscars.  Excited?  Thought so.

Because Tumblr does not seem to allow for tables, predictions will be bold and opinions will be italic.

Now, back to trying to force myself to study for a final that I have on Tuesday.
