2009 Academy Awards recap

So today I undergo my annual hangover.  The Oscar race that begins each year in November and carries on for the better part of four months has once again finished.  I spent all day on Sunday popping on and off of the internet to get some scoops and photos from absolutely anywhere possible and kept the updates rolling on Facebook, including during the ceremony itself.  I'm not technically savvy enough to have done a live streaming blog or anything like that, but I can at least here present to you a general recap in that style since I was jotting down notes for hours.  Plus we've got some backstories and tidbits so this doesn't just turn into one of the 10,494 recaps you can find and read anywhere else on the internet.  So let us go back in time to yesterday...actually, that really doesn't sound all that dramatic, does it?  It's not like I'm channeling a time machine to 1934 or nothing, it's just 12-30 hours ago...
