Olympic Boycott: Day Thirteen

[rusty_armour]

I just skipped the latest Social Committee event at work because it had an Olympic theme. I felt like I'd be a bit of a hypocrite if I went considering that I'm boycotting the Olympics. As I'm already behind with my work, and had to waste half an hour this morning at a "town hall meeting" in which the company CEO basically delivered a lecture on how poorly we were performing, I can live with missing this event.

Last I heard, Canada had 13 medals. I have no idea what the latest ones are for.

Hurdles, diving, trampoline, and Simon Whitfield.

If it makes you feel even more virtuous, I've hit the wall of Olympic-related sleep deprivation and woke up this morning with the sort of headache that STABS into your EYE!! So you're sparing yourself literal pain, my friend...

As GB is having the best Olympics since goodness knows when and is only being beaten by China and the USA it's pretty hard to avoid it here...

I think you're on the right track boycotting the Olympics. I have been sucked into the Olympic vortex and therefore find myself sitting in front of the tube for *hours* watching one event after another regardless of the event.... Help!
