Dedicated to anyone dedicated to the Olympics..
Ah, well it is that time of the year...er...well...that time of every fourth I should say, you know; the SUMMER OLYMPICS! First let me tell you that I am addicted to the olympics. I don't even like pole vaulting or discus throwing or shotput on a normal day, but put up some flags and slap a USA jersey on an althlete and I am riveted. I have never in my life been so interested in 8 lanes of speedo sportin', swim cap wearin', goggle lovin' men in my life until we start winning ungodly amounts of gold medals.
May I mention beach volleyball for one moment? Number one- never been so perplexed about a strange black "humungus tatooo" (as my two year old cousin says) on the shoulder of someone, but lo and behold USA is on her back, so I want to know, dang it! (and yes, I did google it and the mystery was explained- athletic tape to help with stress and pressure.) Number two- it is hard enough to tote my cooler/chair/umbrella/boogie board/innertube/sunscreen down to the beach in that sand. How do they possibly make it look so easy? Rock on May-Walsh!!
Can I give a shout out to the little known sports?!!! How bout the trampolinists!! Sweet flips and turns ladies. How bout syncronized diving. Wow, that is all I can say about that.
Now onto the favorite of the summer olympics, gymnastics. Honestly, can't say enough. Really, the truth is I can't say anything because I am so fatigued from staying up until 2am watching the coverage. One vent though- are those little China dolls 16? If they truly are then I wish everyone would let it go! Becuase if they are they do not deserve to have their wins and accomplishments tainted by this accusal from the world, but aren't they just so cute I just want to pinch their wittle cheekies.
I love the Olympics, but I am ready to get back to giving my pillow the attention it deserves.
