The Olympics have taken over my brain

[holdouttrout]

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).

supplyship, when do I get my Michael Phelps fan club membership card?

Hee! I LOVED gymnastics when I was a little girl, and I know that I would have been over the moon with synchronized diving.

I highly suggest sneaking in the 400m freestyle relay. Because...just. Yeah. Wow.

Agreed, the 4x100 relay from last night was totally worth watching, so much drama and excitement and milliseconds deciding the outcome - it's all the reasons I enjoy watching sporting events.

I mean, goodness gracious, one team broke the world record by a good margin, and only finished 4th!
