olympics what?

just make them go away. please, god, end the pain. i need my "law and order" episodes back.

there are a slew of articles out there right now about how america is "so over" the (winter) olympics. it's kind of like all the articles that were written after sept. 11th about how we were "so over" irony. except, you know, not as sad. and, unlike the case with the irony articles, these articles are correct--we ARE SO OVER THE WINTER OLYMPICS.

we would be over the summer olympics, too, but the summer olympics: (1) are during the summer, when it's warm and there's a general bon vivre thing going on and we're more tolerant of crap (including, among other things, (a) the summer olympics, (b) major league baseball, and (c) homeless people fighing each other with sections of fence pole in our allies), (2) are often actually set in a US city, and thus in a watchable time zone, (3) involve all the sports where men kick the shit out of each other, like boxing and tae kwon do, and (4) involve a ton of non-white people. god, i am so over white people and their love of ice and snow. if it weren't for white people inventing all these stupid ice and snow sports, we wouldn't have to listen to shani davis bitch bitch bitch.

yesterday i was on the phone with my mom and she told me she was so "over" her job. i need to stop using that word, it's rubbing off.

we're going to look at condos this morning, if i can get c. out of bed.
