The Olympics ate my blog

The Olympics are fascinating to me. The sports I never otherwise watch! The stories! All those athletic kids who make me feel pretty lazy and out of shape!

Hmmm.

Scratch that last one.

Anyway, I've been virtually cemented to my sofa since 8/8/08 watching the Olympics. I watch in awe as the women sprinters run a lap around the track in less than half the time it would take me. I'm amazed as I watch very strong, very top heavy looking men hoist themselves up as though their bodies are weightless. And I cheer very loudly when I see one of my former classmates win an Olympic gold! Go Dominic!

But sometimes during the commercial breaks, I feel the pull of my computer, calling me near, because I still have so much to tell you!

I mean, I have a whole bunch of these that I need to go through, crop, edit, emphasize the cuteness of (not that they need any help):


Aren't Katey and baby Maia the cutest?

And I didn't even tell you about the Red Sox/White Sox game I went to:


Isn't injured David Ortiz cute too? Watching his friends play. Peeking through the fence. And look! They are chewing DUBBLE BUBBLE! How funny is that?

The Olympics are over soon. And I'll be back. :)
