This is me reenacting myself watching the Olympics. The ones were I look in pain are the ones where I was pretending it was last night and I was watching women's gymnastics. I love those girls, but man, they make me forget to breathe.

One more day of real work and then I am back in action on my second job: getting crafty. I am going to be releasing some more art journal kits on FRIDAY. Some will be nearly IDENTICAL to the first one. Some will be a little random and in very limited quantities. All will be 5×7 in size and include a letterpressed print. And let's make a deal…if they are lame, I promise I will not sell them.

Other cool news : My main man has been getting off his rotations at 3pm. Which is good for him and good for me and therefore good for us.

Other, other cool news : I am not as scared for men's gymnastics individuals tonight. They appear much less breakable than the girls. Go TEAM USA.

    Fun photos! I love watching the Olympics, but too bad that my favorite event (handball) only airs in the wee hours of the morning — I don’t think I would be aware enough to have any reactions that early. Oh, the price I pay for being a fan of obscure things. 🙂

    I know, right!? (…about women’s gymnastics…)
    Shawn Johnson is from West Des Moines (where I live) so I am rooting extra hard for my hometown girl! (I stood in line with her at a check-out lane in Target one day!) She is beyond amazing. But it hurts to watch.
