Olympics


Besides the excitement that Michael Phelps generates, the U.S. men's gymnastic team took the bronze the other night after nobody thought they had a chance at a medal due to teammates being out with injuries. This morning, the overall women's gymnastics were fun to watch since Nastia Liukin and Shawn Johnson won gold and silver respectively. All this contributes to me staying up way too late to watch all this stuff live. (Happens every two years --the winter games are really my favorite.) I get more sleep when the games are in this hemisphere. Go USA! *yawn*

I'm yawning right along with you. HAD to stay up to watch Liukin and Johnson last night (um, this morning). But it was worth it. Phelps just won his seventh gold. The man has to have gills!

I don't know about gills, but he definitely has FINS. That was an amazing finish tonight. I just watched Bob Costas' interview with Michael and Mark Spitz. Inspiring stuff.
