I love the Olympics! Both the Summer & Winter games. I enjoy watching ALL of the Opening Ceremonies, each individual nation marching in is awesome (Amy doesn't always share the enjoyment for this particular part). I love the music NBC has for the games, just hearing it gives me goosebumps. I love the commentators and each of the events. Honestly it is the only sporting event I truly enjoy. I'm actually sad when they are over, 2 years is a long time to wait for another dose. I'm sitting here, up too late yet again, watching the Short Track Speed Skating and Women's Bobsled events and a realization hits me. Man, these athletes must be super comfortable with their bodies. With the exception of the Skip Jump and Freestyle Ski events, everyone is in super tight/revealing outfits. But I guess if you are a world-class athlete and you are competing in the Olympics, you probably are not too concerned with how you look in your aerodynamic, body-hugging, Lycra/Spandex outfit. Or maybe you are, who knows? All I know is that I'm not sure I could get in front of millions of people world-wide in a brightly colored body suit that leaves little to the imagination with 10 cameras at every angle and still perform my best. But I guess that is one of the reasons why I am not an Olympian - that and the fact that I have 0% athletic ability, unless you could the Wii, then I may be able to top out at 2.5% or so.
In addition to the awesomeness that is the Olympics - there's also an app for that! Yes, yet another app to strengthen the already inseparable bond I have with my iPhone! This one is pretty awesome too, providing all kinds of info and up-to-the-minute scores, as well as the ability to post to Facebook and Twitter! It's the little things that bring me joy. Well, just random thoughts I guess tonight. I should be heading off to bed soon though, 4:45 is going to come by awfully fast!
All is well, loose-fitting, comfortable, and non-athletic, in Drosche Land!
