    Olympics

    Is anyone else trying to climb into the TV? Well, except for the ride in the rain; I think my fingers and toes were crossed that no one would hit slick.
    But, I'm ALL OVER the pool!

    I did a tri this morning, and since I got home we've been watching 2 days worth of Olympics. To the point where I think I'm getting a tv headache! I'll be seeing events in my sleep!

    Normally, don't watch a lot of TV but with the TDF and the Olympics..have become a TV junkie!

    At our cottage, we have a rule with the kids. No television during the day, and only movies at night. But we also have the "Olympic Rule." If we are there during the olympics, the TV can be on during the day, as long as they are watching the olympics.

    I love the Olympics, I will watch anything that is on. Well we DVR it and I pass through things I don't care about or see all the time in the US(basketball). But I did find myself watching water polo (partially while napping), sculling and beach volleyball yesterday. Normally I wouldn't watch any of these things if they were on TV. I don't watch the pros at basketball, so I skipped that part. I did watch all the swimming, diving and gymnastics plus the cycling.

    Our house has been glues to the Olympics as well. But I think I am getting to the saturation point as well.

    We've been glued to the TV too. Did anyone watch handball? Very different; like a combination of soccer and basketball. Nice to see the cycling too, especially the women.
