Tonight, I am sitting down and watching the Olympic races for the first time. Olympics cause the world's top athletes to push themselves to the extreme, and the rest of the world to push handfuls of chips and candy in our mouths as we gasp in awe. Hold on, I'm getting salsa on my keyboard. Last night I went to the Banff Film Festival World Tour, and enjoyed another evening of watching films with world class athletes doing amazing things.
All of this excellence has gotten me thinking. That could be me. I could be out there, pushing the extremes. Except I'm afraid of crashing, falling, or high speed. Dang it, maybe I'm not gold-medal materia... wait a minute, isn't there an event with brooms, sweeping the ice? I could totally do that! And the stress of the Olympics wouldn't be an issue. I always have to clean my floors when I get stressed.
Maybe I should start training. Well, our apartment only has about 7 square feet of ancient linoleum, so maybe I will have to start practicing in our new home. Pass the chips.

i'm with you...if there was an event to clean bathrooms we would rule!! and just so you know, i was in a chip mood today. couldn't even wait until i got home. but then i just read a blog about dieting that said you should always be sitting when you eat-so there you go. eating in the car is one of my favorite places.
