Did you watch the Grammy awards tonight? Is it just me, or did they hardly give away any awards? What was up with that? And why did Taylor Swift sound so bad? Poor Stevie Nicks! And I can’t believe that Taylor beat Lady Gaga for the album of the year.
Did you watch the “Hope for Haiti” telethon? I was traveling and missed part of it. I think I came it right before Shakira started performing. Based on what I saw, she was one of the best ones. I also really enjoyed Madonna’s performance. And Justin Timeberlake’s. It really made me wish that he actually sang more often!
Did you watch the Golden Globes on Sunday? I put it on my DVR and watched it after the fact. I did that so that I could fast forward through commercials and boring speeches! If you didn’t see it, you may be wondering who the female winners were.
Here are some of them now:
Supporting actress – motion picture: Mo’Nique for “Precious”
Actress – TV series comedy or musical: Toni Collette for “United States of Tara”
Actress in a Motion Picture – Comedy or Musical: Meryl Streep for “Julie & Julia”
Actress – TV series drama: Julianna Margulies for “The Good Wife”

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Hiltons of Branson. All opinions are 100% mine.
If you know me in person then you know that I love, love, love to travel! But one of the places that I have never been to, even though I have friends that have gone and loved it, is Branson, Missouri. It seems like a kind of cool place. I mean, they have lots and lots of shows there, including some dinner theater. And there is supposed to be some great shopping and places to eat in Branson - especially around the Branson Landing area. And you know what is even better? That there are two really nice Hilton hotels in Branson - and those of you that know me already know how much I love staying at Hilton hotels (with my fave one being the Universal Hilton in Los Angeles). So, the Hilton Promenade at Branson Landing has a great location right there at Branson Landing. You can walk out of your hotel and be right there in the middle of all of the fun. And the Hilton Branson Convention Center Hotel is of course located by the convention center. And these are great hotels to check out for Valentine’s Day! They have a Romance Package where you get in-room sparkling wine or cider upon arrival, access to the hotel health club, pool and whirlpool spa, a full American breakfast for two in your room, and loads more. How cool is that? Check it out for yourself!

Any thoughts on the gender vs education posts? Comments? Criticism? Questions? Have you also experienced gender discrimination? If so, what did you do about it? Or are you still fighting it? Are are you just sad about the findings of the series? Yup, me too.
