  • I get to yell things like "KILL IT!" and "FIIIIIIIIGHT!" at the television without feeling odd.
  • DID YOU SEE THE MEN'S 400M RELAY?!? DID YOU SEE THE PHOTO FINISH?
  • I was inspired to run three miles today while watching men's beach volleyball.
  • The after event interviews are just classic. You can tell these people have little to no acting training.
  • Every time you turn around a new record is being broken. Someone is always the first. Or the best. Or both. And it's fantastic.
  • EDITED TO ADD : JONATHAN HORTON on the HIGH BAR.
  • EDITED TO ADD : STUCK LANDINGS.

Oh man. SO FABULOUS. I told Paul that four years from now I am going to take off all 17 days and just sit on the couch as to not miss a moment. OR. I might just fly to London and pretend I am on the women's gymnastic team.

    Regular blog reader here. Came for the scrappy/paper stuff, really enjoying the Olympic stuff! How cute were the men’s gymnatics team? They were so stoked. Can’t wait for the women tonight!
