Olympics Obsession

I kinda need the Olympics to be over with because I am sleep-deprived! Who’s idea was it to start the Olympics coverage at 8pm? And they always have my favorite sport, gymnastics, at the end.

You know what’s great about the Olympics? That everyone is watching and following it. I went for froyo with a friend yesterday and we spent an hour talking about it. Who’s hot, the doping scandals, the inspirational moments…

I love that Aly Raisman clinched a bronze and a gold. She nailed it! I don’t know what’s better or worse: Gabby Douglas being crowned the all-around champ, then f*ing up on her subsequent routines; or Aly losing out on a medal for all-around, then bouncing back to win bronze and gold. If I had to be one of those girls, I’d probably pick Aly. So much better to end on a high note.
