I guess we're all posting on the first? New month and all! Though I suppose it's no longer the first for most of you.
Anyway, I'm still thinking up lots of entries in my head and not posting them. And not doing as well with keeping up with my flist as I'd like (though I do read it all).
I'm watching the Olympics, but I feel a lot less into them than I usually am. Some of that might be watching so much on live streaming, but I was thinking about it and this is probably the first Olympics since 2006 where I can't just sit around and watch them all day. I mean, the tape delay is annoying, but NBC always tape delays the west coast (even when, like in Vancouver, the Olympics are taking ON the west coast). I used to be able to watch live on CBC (Canadian channel), but they don't play them on that channel anymore, soooooo sad. I really loved that coverage.
Speaking of the Olympics and time delays, does anyone know a good live blog for the Olympics? Or a good Twitter account to follow for updates? I have to work tomorrow during the gymnastics, so I can't watch on live streaming and I just don't think I'll be able to avoid spoilers all day.
Speaking of Canada (uh, sort of), the Mariners just swept the Toronto Blue Jays . . . and had previously swept the Royals . . . which means they've won 7 games in a row. Their last 7 game win streak was in 2007! AND Eric Thames (who the Mariners traded Steve Delabar for) hit a home run in his first game for the Mariners. It is clearly way too soon to call, but that could end up being a very nice trade for us. Anyway, it seems like the Mariners might be finally figuring stuff out, so that's great. This is supposed to be the season when all the young guys are up and the team start coming together, and it looks like that might finally be happening.
Annnnd I should probably go ahead and post this. Early days at work tomorrow and today!
