Olympic Boycott: Day One

[rusty_armour]

So today is the first official day of my Beijing Olympics boycott. It's probably not even worth writing about as it's not going to have a major impact on the world or anything. Hell, it's not even going to have that big an impact on me. Usually, I'm doing well if I watch the Olympic opening ceremonies and some events on the first day. After that, my attention wanders, I get bored, and then I stop watching. This time around, I just won't tune in at all. Tonight, I'll probably catch up on a couple of shows I've taped over the last few days (like the eighth episode of Life on Mars). Oh, and Torchwood is premiering on SPACE. For some reason I can't fathom, SPACE is starting with the second series instead of the first. However, I'll probably tune in anyway. I'm hoping I might manage to scribble something at the same time. It's awful but sometimes I write in front of the TV. This is usually when I can't be motivated to write at all and think I can fool my brain into believing that I'm not actually writing but just watching TV.

Uh...maybe the second day of the boycott will be a little more exciting. *g*

Thank you kindly! :-) I'm sorry to hear that China has such a poor record when it comes to animal welfare, though, unfortunately, I'm not surprised. I'm glad that the issue of wild turtles is still so close to your heart. How is your own collection of animals doing? I hope Sundance and the tortoises are doing well.
