Finishing Projects!
Unemployed and finally getting some things off my to-do list. Here's the oil pastel pic I did this week! Not the best photo, but I'm pretty happy with it!

Are You Watching The Olympics?
It's my favorite time of four years. Summer Olympics. Here are my thoughts.
-I'm not feeling the synchronized diving thing.
-Men's gymnastics was breath-taking! And how adorable is Alexander Artemev? Until he talks to the camera that is. I know he's excited, and I'm hoping that's it, but he comes off as someone who I'd find extremely grating. He's adorable though, and what a way to end his first Olympic run! How amazing! What a fantastic opportunity!
-Jonathan Horton blew me away with his flawless night.
-Swimming is where it is at this year! I could watch Michael Phelps all day long. (I might be a "Phelps Phan", har-har. Okay my sense of humor is lacking at the moment, give me time.) He's maybe the most amazing thing ever. And, seriously, freaking adorable. Lovely and humble on camera, and I officially love him.
-More swimming, did you see the comeback by Lezak?! I know, I'm hitting all the obvious points, but WOW.
-Another semi-negative thought, not really getting into volleyball either. Syncronized diving I get, (the same thing for an hour, give or take a few nuisances you need slo-mo for), but I thought I'd be into volleyball, given the high scoring potentional the dream team from America has. But I drift.
I'm a day behind so I'm sitting on the edge of my seat waiting for the possible Olympic-record breaking swim tonight by Phelps, and women's gynastics too, but just wanted to tip my hat to fellow Olympic-watchers out there. Just fantastic as always. Love the Olympics.
I'm working through my last week of work on this show, after being extended and extended and extended, and this is seriously the last week. And I'm the last segment editor standing for the finish, (lots of responsibility, lots of glory!). I feel like I just did my freshman Olympics with these last few months. I'm beat and proud and tired and need a break! Next week there will be lots of re-couping. (And writing!)
