it's happening.
one of my many life-accepting therapies is starting today, in fact - it already has. What is it, you ask?
that's right - the olympics, bitches!
I haven't cared/watched/cared about these big games since 1996. Celine Dion sang "Power of the Dream", the games were in Atlanta, and I was obsessed with The Magnificent 7 - Shannon Miller, Dominique Moceanu, Dominique Dawes, Kerri Strug, Amy Chow, Amanda Borden andJaycie Phelps. I watched them religiously and I may have even cried a single tear when poor, broken Kerri Strug landed that vault.
Well, Celine Dion sang again at the opening ceremonies and I feel that means its time to have my American pride back -- lord knows its impossible to feel positive about anything else going on in this country.
look how handsome they look. I have to be honest, I would have much rather have seen some of the project runway fashions from this week there instead, namely these two:
I wish they would have designed some wicked leotards...
anyway!
What I'm going to watch: Gynmastics (duh), the swimmers, and maybe hand ball -- I'm intrigued.
Let's do this, Beijing!!
