Southie says my posts are too long. So here's one for you, South.

Above you will see a picture of the logo for the Torino Olympics. I hate the Olympics. BOO OLYMPICS!!

I sat on the couch and graded all night. My roommate is never home even when he's not working, so I get plenty of quiet time to do my grading. I did have the games on for background noise, but only because I knew I'd have no trouble ignoring it so I could concentrate on my student work. I especially hate ice dancing. We watched a little of it the other night, and the most entertaining part was the clumsiness of the sport. People were falling lefty righty, and somehow the rumba and the samba just don't look nearly as electric on the ice. The judges kept complaining about how certain couples were lacking sexual energy. Who knew sexual energy was a requirement for an Olympic event? That's some crazy shit. And how the hell does a woman manage to give the image of feeling sexual energy with a gay man? I don't want to stereotype, but let's be honest here- male figure skaters aren't known for their mojo. It just doesn't seem fair to expect that of them. They're ice skaters, not actors.

I'm having one of those days where I am coming down from the high of having time with my BF. He's back to work now so I'm sad again, making this short post even easier to accomplish.
