Atrium called. Yay! I have work next week! My bank account will be happy.

Last night I checked out a bunch of gymnastic websites with video downloads. I ended up downloading a 30-second video of Nadia in '79, doing a bars routine. That 30-second video took me over five minutes to receive. *Sigh* I wish broadband weren't so expensive. Anyway, I'm going to download a bunch of other videos as well, including a bunch of Shannon Miller stuff. I found a site that has her Barcelona routines on it, and I'd better get them quick before the IOC finds them and shuts them down for copyright violation or something. (The IOC is ruthless about that--it's very difficult to view old Olympic footage because it costs so much.) I love having a new computer with new software that can actually play this stuff.

Tanned last night. Mmm...I'm all brown and sexy.

Are you a gymnast?

I watched the Summer Games religiously when I was little.
Oh, Nadia was an angel on the uneven bars.
I have a new reason to love you.

But my favorite was Dominique Dawes.
I don't even know about these new girls. I need to bone up on that.

I don't know if you have seen this article about the chosen members of the US women's gymnastics team. At least the team now has two women aside from the teenagers.

And here is a picture:
