They played Pirates of the Caribbean music for an Olympic promo again last night Makes me happy. That makes two so far for recap music and once PotC music was used during a floor exercise in the women's competition but I don't know who used it, as it was playing during an american/romanian/russian gymnast's balance beam routine so they never showed the floor. Ah well. I like seeing how the Americans do...yes, sometimes they seem to hog the screen, but hey, we're american, we should be able to see our people. Too bad we don't have cable for to watch the networks of NBC and get to see everything. Ah well. Silly cable, being expensive and all that.

I'm surprised I haven't really mentioned the Olympics yet, since they started last week. It's been neat watching the records being broken and medals being won...congrats to Paul Hamm in men's gymnastics, he came back from a 'disaster' to win the gold. And look at Michael Phelps. He looks like he can win eight medals these games...too bad seven won't be gold, but shoot, to have any piece of metal hanging around your neck at the end of the day at the Olympics has to be good. I can't wait for the track and field stuff to start...watched what they showed of the shotput competition last night, an American got silver because he only managed to get one clean throw in...sucks to foul. Gail Devers might just do the hundred, which is exciting...but she might not to give Marion Jones a chance. Who knows? I love watching sprints. Too bad I can't really do them anymore...I really need to start working out. But where is my motivation? Silly. I have motivation, just not the will. Ergh. Or the desire to get up early and run. No way.

Second to last softball game tonight. Hope we break our two-game losing streak...I think we're at exactly .500, five and five. I think there's also a playoff game, no matter what our record, but let's hope it's on the winning side
