TheBilcourt: The Weekend

The Weekend

Friday-

The Goonies at the Belcourt on Friday night was great! Everyone was worried that is would be the worst due to the volume of people and the noise they might create during the movie. It actually ended up being the most quiet movie out of all of the late night movies they have had. There was a ton of people there though. I was glad we bought our tickets before we left. When we got there, the line wrapped around the building. Oh well, before the film began, they had a truffle shuffle contest. It was hilarious...

Saturday-

I went with my sister and soon to be brother in law Justin to look at a house they were thinking about buying. After the walkthrough we went back to the real estate agents office, sat down and worked out a offer for the house. There was a phone in the room playing music. The odd thing about that happened at the end when it was time to sign all of the papers for making an offer on the house. Justin and Lesley start reading over all of the papers before they sign it. This is a big deal to them and in the background I notice that the radio is playing the song "Just Breathe". I mentioned it to them and we all thought it was kinda funny due to the circumstances. After they read through all of the papers and started signing away, the radio then started playing "Celebration". Even more weird. After all of the papers were signed and they had gone over all of the details, the agent started telling Lesley and Justin how this is the great way for them to start off their marriage, they're really fortunate in life to be able to get a house, yada yada yada. When he was finished, Justin stepped out and as the three of us sat there the radio then started playing "A Moment Like This"(some people wait a life time). Lesley and I about lost it. It was like listening to a soundtrack or something.

Sunday-

The Emmys were on Sunday night. I normally might not watch them, but Conan was hosting and there wasn't anything else on. He was hilarious! The opening montage was really funny even though it was one of those "I have to get to my award show!" type deals. I was really happy that The Office won for best comedy, 24 won best drama, and Kiefer Sutherland won for best dramatic actor. Its kind of cool that the original BBC version of the office won best comedy a few years ago and now the remake has won. I don't think anyone thought the remake would be as good as the original but I'm glad everyone was wrong.

Keep in mind that in this clip with Stephen Colbert and Jon Stewart, Colbert was nominated in a category with Hugh Jackman hosting the Tonys and Barry Manilow doing a PBS special. I think the category was something like, best individual performance on a variety/music show. It's kinda bad that I remember that.
