Big Feet
This weekend, Danny was kind enough to brave the outlet mall with me so I could pick out some new work clothes. He didn’t suffer too much though considering he picked out a new pair of shoes for himself. I got some new sneakers in the men’s section of Macy’s. They were sold out of the type I wanted in the women’s section, so I found something similar in the men’s section on sale. This is one of the few times I’ve been grateful for having big feet.
We also watched the end of the olympics. I’m a little sad that they’re over. Watching the olympics is one of the very few times I actually get into sports. Although I saw a lot of great races and events, I wish NBC had broadcast some of the less popular sports like synchronized diving and swimming, kayaking, rhythm gymnastics, and archery. And although I enjoyed watching the gymnastics, why do we have to watch the same athletes do the same routines time and time again? It took me days to get the music from Carly Patterson’s floor routine out of my head.
This is from the women’s basketball game between Russia and the Czech Republic. I would have liked to have seen THAT game.

I thought they covered the olympics completely? It was on 5 or 6 channels day and night nonstop. I can’t believe they missed some events.
You know, they probably did show everything, but I was hoping that the primetime coverage would include some more sports. I found some decent coverage on the Spanish channel, but I wasn’t able to get all of the channels showing the games.
I saw synchronized diving. It was really gay. I too become obsessed with the Olympics as you may know. Did you see trampolining??
I didn’t get to see trampolining - again on one of the channels we don’t get.
Was it cool?
I like that you obsess over the olympics. Back in 2000, you gave me a rundown of the highlights when I came into work each morning.
I also saw the synchronized diving, and it was extremely gay.
