The MTV movie awards were on last night and we actually knew about it this year. Whoo hoo! My husband and I decided that we wanted to record it since we don't stay up late enough to watch it all live, is that sad? Wait, it gets sadder, we didn't know what channel MTV was. It wasn't hard to figure out, but what struck me was, an era had unknowingly ended in our lives.
I remember The Real World seasons 1, 2, and 3, that game show with Jenny McCarthy, maybe some music videos here and there...then nothing. Is it amnesia? At what point did we stop watching MTV? It used to be such an integral part of our lives I feel. Anyways, so we watch the first 30 minutes of the awards show which happened to be before our bedtime and Twilight won every award. I haven't seen the last Twilight movie yet, so needless to say I told my husband to put it in our Netflix queue. Then Reese Witherspoon won some type of lifetime achievement award and I almost fell over...she's probably my age by the way. Don't get me wrong, she's accomplished a lot and I love her, but does anyone else think she's kind of young to win a "generation" award? It was as if she was the oldest, wisest woman in the theater.
So I've decided that today we mourn the end of our MTV era as we watch the recorded awards show and celebrate the one we are now embarking upon with Dateline on the Investigation Discovery channel.
Not to be taken seriously. Ramblings of a stay at home mom who finally got a job.
