I can't take this anymore--I've been sitting here on my couch watching the olympics for the last 5 days, only getting up to eat and shit and use the computer. Since this morning, I've moved the computer to my coffee table so I don't even have to get up to use my computer anymore. The most exciting part of my day is deciding who I should root for, US or China. On one hand, I want China to do well in these olympics because they're at home and I truly fear for the safety and reputations of the Chinese athletes if they don't put up golds in every category. On the other hand, I'm American-born and want America to represent. This question has been bouncing back and forth in my head for the last 5 days. I can't take it anymore. Phantom aches are starting to surface all over my body for no reason. I'm noticing how angry I get when NBC is airing nothing but rowing for a good 3 hour stretch. Oh, and the Chinese Gymnastics Women are little alien robot people. Weird.
The Olympics are dominating my thoughts every waking hour. I've never watched my tv so intently as I have in the last fdew ays and the olympics aren't even half over yet! I don't know if I'll survive the duration of the games.
I need to somehow break this addiction. But I can't. NBC has thorougly brainwashed me into thinking Michael Phelp's quest for 8 golds is a life and death situation. My body odor has soaked into my furnture. Gross.
