I may end up watching the events I wanted to see on YouTube.

Anyone know where there's video of the UK women's gymnastics floor routines, from the team finals? I couldn't find it in the first few places I looked.

Wow, that's really nice, Steph.

I attempted to record the cross country on Monday and managed to get only a few minutes because they tacked it onto the end of one session. Very disappointing.

On the other hand, if you can get the thing to work - the iphone app or the NBColympics.com you can watch entire events.

Meanwhile Zenyatta's colt is very very big and rambunctious.

Illini Olympians on the US, British, Canadian and Jamaican teams.

Steph, my current dentist calls the day after to check up on me. The first time I was shocked cause I felt fine and the call made me feel like I shouldn't be feeling fine.

Just cleaned the Lutherins out of the sink. I feel very accomplished. Wish that was the magic cure for the headache, but alas.

I cleaned them off the benchtop. I shall call it "the Counter Reformation".

I just had lunch with my old boss. Got a lot of gossip about my old office, and it's clear he's very happy about having gotten out. OTOH, he seems to think that the consulting field is entering a slump, and there have been all sorts of layoffs.

Which is bad, since I was assuming I could go back to consulting if this place never gets around to hiring me properly.

What, no gear-encrusted brassiere for you, Jilli?

Hiissssssss. No.

Pro cilanoro and pro "thinki"

AS to: "When you leave grammar, you've gone to the dark side."

It ain't necessarily so. I know "think" is less popular, but it is still right. Sometimes it bes like that.

As to Chic-A-Fil-A not being about freedom of speech. When some mayors and councilcritters threatened to use selective and discramanotry denials of permits as punishment for hate speech, yes it became about free speech. I'm all for boycotting them - that is not about free speech. I will note that the cities where official stepped over the line are all cities that are big into beating the hell out of protestors often ones who turn out not have violated any laws. And also about passing new laws to make formerly legal protests illegal. So those cities are pretty consistently wrong on free speech.

Chick-fil-A is kind of delicious, I'm not going to lie.

I totes agree! I love myself their yummy sandwiches. But no more.

I waited for over an hour at my OB's office. She had an emergency delivery this AM. It would have made me mad, but instead, I just sort of got into a zen place where I didn't mind so much.
