Slight Delay, But Other Stuff Instead

So, I said that my top ten lists would be up today. Turns out, that's not gonna happen. I had intended to write them during a car ride this afternoon, but an intense discussion unfolded, so no top ten lists. But they will be up tomorrow, no ifs ands or buts about it. In the meantime, in honor of tonight's Golden Globes, I'm going to post my picks for should win and will win, and if you so choose, you can mock my failures at picking or marvel at how right I ended up being in the comments. Italics means should win, bold means will win. Let the picking commence!
