he just doesn't like to lose.

There was an article online somewhere saying pretty much that, that the Karolys are only making a fuss because they can't get away with doing the same thing themselves and their girls are/were getting beat.

Does anyone have a picture of Khorkina? I want to see if she's grown into the wonderful angles of her face as well as Nadia has.

Nadia looks amazing. I am sad that I miss Khorkina. And actually, Mary Lou Retton has fined down and looks good too. Just not spectacular.

I swear, this town - people don't just have grills - they also sometimes just burn stuff in their backyards.

One of my neighbors combined the two and burned several years of financial statements in his grill. I guess that's one way of avoiding identity theft without powering up the shredder. But he kinda looked like he was trying to hide a second career of cooking someone's books. La la la, nothing to see here, I'm just spending a lovely spring afternoon torching bank statements, la la la.

Oh! Khorkina is smiling in that photo!

Instead of watching the olympics, I went to bed. Which means I missed gymnastics and another phelphian moment. Enh.

Then this morning I got into a self-inflicted car accident. It was a very The Happening moment where the tree in my yard attacked me.

Can I have a do over please?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yikes! You're OK, right? How damaged is your car?

Those yard trees are getting vicious! I'm sorry they've turned on you, Kat. I hope you and your car weren't hurt too badly. Maybe you could leave a ream of paper next to the tree's trunk as a warning?

Kat, I'm so sorry!

But, you're OK, right? Was there anybody else in the car?

Kat, I hope you're okay and that your car's not in too bad a shape.
