It's freaking annoying. From an evolutionary perspective "Hi, I'm at peak fertility and a klutz, so that's in your favor. However, I don't want you even thinking of touching me, I hurt and if you do I WILL KILL YOU."

I guess that's to even things out? Fuck that. Gimme civilization.

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".

I must add a shout out for Eddie the Eagle and the Jamaican bob sled team.

Scotty Hamilton and Viktor Petrenko were always some of my favorites to watch (as were both of the Brian's). Mid 90's I had the chance to meet Hamilton and Petrenko, both were absolute dolls.

I missed most of the Olympic crush stuff, but my unholy love of swimmer back started early. Pablo Morales

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I'm catching up on Olympic recordings.

Rhytmic gymnastics continues to make me go, "um..." They're clearly amazing athletes, but it's just so Ringling Brothers. I expect to see a pack of over-groomed poodles rush out at any moment.

I've finally stopped hearing Roman Sebrele's last name as "Chevrolet". He's gorgeous and sort of bad ass. They should hire him to endorese their cars.

Bryan Clay is my official Olympic Boyfriend.

Fuck me for checking work email. Something else crashed inexplicably.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Wait, the French are in it?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, ugh. I just got home from a nice night out to find an email that a good friend's father has died. So sad.

Well, it's not really my sadness, but you know, I'm sad for my friend! But thanks. I liked him too.
