Chillin' Late Night with...Men's Gymnastics??

I can't explain it. They're wearing tights. There are all those awkwardly uncomfortable motivational huddle speeches. Plus, I've got to be at work at the ass crack of dawn tomorrow. Despite it all, I am staying up. I'm staying up watching men's gymnastics?

It's 11:40 at night. I had a horrible Monday. It feels like it's got to be Thursday already, and it's not even close. Yet, here I am, perched on the couch unable to remove myself from the drama of the the U.S. Men's gymnastics team battling the Chinese. I did not just write that sentence.

Please tell me some other red-blooded American male besides me is inexplicably remaining glued to the television. I don't know what else to say. It must be the majestic voice of Al Trautwig. They keep telling me this can't be happening. I can't believe it's happening either. "It" being the fact that I'm going to be up until 1230 a.m. watching men's gymnastics.

Well, enough of all this, the U.S. is about to tackle the floor exercise! Pins and needles!!

CS, you are not alone.

Last night-
me: "Hey, enough of Generation Kill, please put on the olympics."

husband: "I am NOT watching men's gymnastics"

This morning-
me: "You were up late last night. What were you watching?"

husband: "Umm. Men's gymnastics. It was just so good. I can't believe I'm going to be this tired today because I was up late watching men's gymnastics..."

I'd rather be chillin' late at night with the women's volleyball competition.

cs, you need to go get get the shield or the wire on DVD. But hey, at least you weren't watching NASCAR or Soccer.

CS,
I'm pretty sure this is unacceptable, but you know me, I'm a live and let live sort of guy.

What do you enjoy more, the perfect mount or the perfect dismount?
