online live-blog oscar party

Welcome to the first ever 101 Things in 1001 Days On-Line Oscar Party Live Blog! You can participate in our little chat as we live-blog the red carpet and the awards, LIVE from 101 Things World Headquarters, and other super secret hiding spots around the globe!

We start the magic RIGHT HERE at 6:00 p.m. Eastern Time on Sunday, February 27, when we blog the red carpet, and then continue right on through the awards!

In other news, I made a chicken pot pie for lunch today, but it isn't worth a blog post, because I used a pillsbury crust, gravy out of a jar and a half of a rotisserie chicken.
