The Olympics have taken over my brain

I am completely obsessed with Michael Phelps the Olympics.

If you see me online the next couple of weeks, I will probably be pretending I know something about various ridiculous sports, and pretending I know more than I do about swimming.

And possibly ranting about judging. *grins*

If you haven't seen the opening ceremonies yet, you can find video here. It was quite fantastic to watch--people are calling it the most spectacular opening ceremonies ever. So.

Incidentally, this is what I did this weekend, except for a wedding and a bridal shower (in that order, and for two different people).

Eee! Michael Phelps The Olympics!

I much prefer the Summer Olympics, so I'm having a great time right now. Swimming, gymnastics, beach volleyball...life is good. And it'll only get better when diving starts.

Seriously, though. Michael Phelps! He is just amazing. And confident without being arrogant, which I appreciate it. I cheered so loudly when the boys came back and won that relay. So very cool.

It was just so unexpected! I knew they won and halfway through I was STILL sure they must have lost.
