being winners

i am absolutely addicted to the olympics, and hence am suffering from a huge sleep deficit. this late-night coverage is killing me. but did you SEE our male gymnasts surprise everyone last night with a bronze?!? and to watch the emotion on the chinese team's faces when they won the gold... needless to say, tears were shed in the blaser household.

our swimmers are awesome, our lady beach volleyballers rock, our female fencers swept the medals... but it's not just about the u.s.a. for me. i love it when tiny countries are represented by strong and courageous athletes who give all they have to beat the clear favorites. even little old switzerland has won a medal, and that's saying something for a country that would fit inside california 10 times...

i think i really need to consider a tivo.
