Just a week to go until Opening Ceremonies! I wish it would get here faster. I keep listening to the Olympic theme song and giving myself goosebumps. Just this morning, the Olympic torch entered London, and according to ESPN, it will be repelled from a helicopter into the Tower of London tonight, the official welcome of the torch into the Olympic city. This could not be more exciting!!
So, a lot of you don’t know this about me, but I was once a gymnast. It was for a total of two months back in the late 80s, and I eventually got kicked out because the coaches were afraid I would hurt myself. My lack of real speed and the fact that gravity is not my friend are things that I’ve only recently come to terms with, so needless to say, the realization that I would never be Mary Lou Retton was devastating. But it leads me right into today’s Olympic moment!
