The Summer Olympics start tonight at seven o’clock!!!! Huzzah! It’s only once every four years! Sports and… I don’t know, athletics!
I’m going to be honest with you guys, since I think we have just this sort of relationship, and admit that I actually don’t like sports very much. I was the little girl in gym class who ducked and covered my head when a kickball was thrown at me. I hated every minute of it. When I needed gym requirements in undergrad, I took Tai Chi and self-defense. I don’t care for sports. But I admire people who can do sports well, and I especially like pageantry and brou-ha-ha. I am going to watch the Opening Ceremony and the Closing Ceremony, and I’m going to challenge myself to try and watch some of the actual sporting competitions as well. Maybe that one where they run around with a twisty ribbon. That looks very pretty and challenging, more art than sport and I love art. I could get into that. Reminds me of the liturgical dances I saw in Catholic schools growing up, before I ended up on the Planet Charismatic. Speaking of which…
