Stupid Olympics. Let me sleep!

I just finished watching the men's gymnastics competition and now I'm too worked up to sleep. Gymnasts aren't really my type (I prefer them tall and lanky) but their enthusiasm got to me. The Olympics are awesome! When else can you watch synchronized diving and badminton in the same day? I'm sad to report that Canada has not won a medal yet which is really embarrassing because even Uzbekistan and Turkey have one. Whatever, we'll show them at the winter Olympics. Did I ever mention that I participated in the Olympics? That's right, I was a cross-country skier in the Alberta Junior Winter Olympics. I came in...last! The second year I went I wasn't last but I was close to it. Let's just say that the Magrath Cross Country Club was not giving me the training I needed to be a world class athlete. So what sports are you watching? If Ryan didn't have to work, he'd be watching it 24/7 but I'm a little more discriminating.
