Ultraparadoxical

The opening day of the Olympics was the first day that I was officially moved into my new place.  Since I have been at home cleaning, rearranging and getting my shit together I have watched a ton of the Olympics. While putting my bookcase together I cheered for cross country skiers and as I was swearing at a half assembled desk in front of me curling was on in the background.  I have never been a huge fan of the winter Olympics – instead of running, jumping and swimming of the summer games the winter has bobsled, ski aerials and the luge.  Most of the events are more of a drunken dare than a sporting event.  Regardless I have a few observations about the past 2 weeks: read more »
