Sorry, Captain. I'm real sorry. I shoulda kept better care of her. Usually she lets me know when something's wrong. Maybe she did, I just wasn't paying attention...

I do not enjoy the skating commentators at. all. I wish I could mute them without muting the music.

Yes please.

Thrive to spite them

Scott Hamilton is the only one I can tolerate the rest need to be quiet. Pleshenko was amazing. I also liked the guy who skated to the jazz music and Johnny Weir. The guy who had the James Bond routine needed to be taken off the ice, it was painful to watch.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Sorry to disappear on y'all. Tucking babies to bed (still in process. er.)

I don't really have a cute baby story (although he *is* cute), I'm just proud of him for getting Mama and Dada down. Also--here's a story--last night DH was making a bottle for the boy. Isaac watched him as he washed bottles and nipples and sterilized and made the formula. Then Isaac looked at his Dad and offered him a suggestion: "Mama."

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

::pssst:: Matt's over there...

OOps! I meant SEAN. Thank YOU, Sean!! (It's almost 11 and I'm still at work, can I be forgiven??)

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Only if one of us gets to smack your boss.

The guy who had the James Bond routine needed to be taken off the ice, it was painful to watch.

And what was up with the writing on the back of the costumes? Between that guy's "007" and the German (?-I think he was German) with "EXIT," I'm almost expecting them to be covered in sponsor's labels, like NASCAR.

Good thing was that they were spinning much better than the pairs skaters were. I was getting really annoyed with the pairs, between their inability to spin properly and that annoying way the guys were pulling the women out of the death spirals--it looked like they were hauling sacks of potatoes around instead of making it look effortless.

Yeah. Cheezy.

Liked the matador number though.

I liked Matt Savoy, the American with the simple dark grey outfit. He was very smooth and really innovative on the ice--too bad he flubbed that one jump. The Canadian that skated last had a worst time with his jumps, but he was eye-catching in the straightline work and also had a nicely pared-down costume.
