I [LOVE] the olympics!

The Olympics really excite me. Not too long ago I watched Michael Phelps win yet another gold medal! He is amazing! I swam year-round competitively for 10 years, and let me tell you, swimming is nowhere near as effortless as he makes it seem. He just blows my mind! Congrats, Michael!
Did anyone watch the men's 4x100 freestyle relay last night? That was CRAZY! and AWESOME! Go USA! Not only in swimming, but in every sport [with a shout out to USA Softball, and May & Walsh beach volleyball!]. 

It's been a few months since I've been in a competitive sport (softball is starting back up in September), and I miss it! This summer I've been so busy with summer school and this business I feel like I've been locked in front of a computer! Watching the olympics makes me want to go out and play so bad (minus the heat), but hey, all this 'office' work I'm doing is sure worth it.

If there were a multi-tasking competition in the olympics, I would be a gold medal winner. I am currently typing this on my laptop, but I am right next to my desktop where this Blogger site is also up. Only my desktop is uploading a new banner I just whipped up in Photoshop. Speaking of which, I need to change the sizing on that. I'm not exactly Photoshop savvy. Thankfully, I use Lightroom for the majority of my photograph editing!

Or perhaps if there were a Rock Band olympics, I wouldn't do too bad in that event either. Brad, Shelby, and I sure bring it on those guitar and drums. I wish there was a keyboard instrument in Rock Band (Hint: Wii, make a keyboard for Rock Band!). That would seal in the gold.

I hope everyone is having a great week, and is having fun with the olympics. It's a great time to bring the family together and get the adrenaline rushing.

GO USA!!!! :D
