LT ~ Woo hoo! More medals!!![]()
I have watched, literally, not a second of the Olympics so far. And not even for lack of want!

I come from a family too involved in sports not to watch )!That and being from the host nation, it'd be wrong not to watch a bit!

I'm basically a sports nerd for a living, and I really like the summer sports, but with everything else going on, and being in this ridiculous desert with my ridiculous mother.. it's all conspired against me. But maybe I'll still catch some before it ends!
Maybe. Heh.
I am wrong ...* giggles*

You're not wrong
I don't really get a choice, whatever home I'm in, wherever I am...I can't get away from the Olympics...so I watch, and I get swept away in the excitement![]()

I think I'd like to sleep, but the ickiness won't let me.
I'm glad I don't have anything pressing tomorrow.
I'm also glad I have a distraction, so I can focus on something other than feeling gross.
*snugs a Sia* I was actually just thinking that it's good you don't work tomorrow. And I'm glad I can help distract you from your icks.
hugs
You're allowed not to watch if time and the world don't allow you time or give the inclination...after all, wait a few years and we'll have another to watch![]()
*snugs* yes, if I had work I'd probably consider calling in.
I swear as soon as the pain subsides I'll be passing out, but I have another bit in me.
*goes back to writing.*
*grins* Do you have to get permission from someone from the host country to not watch them now? Someone should really talk to the Olympic Committee about all these rules. *snickers and returns the hug*
I don't make the rules...
Blows a raspberry against his ear while it's within reach
...I just follows 'em!![]()
*laughs and scrunches his nose*
Something makes me doubt that second part is always true...

blue eyes open wide and dark lashes move up and down slowly
It's mostly true...except when it might prove more...interesting...to not follow them...

*grins a little, shaking his head slowly*
Mmhmm.. that's what I thought. You weren't going to convince me you were Little Miss Rule Follower.
*grin widens*
Unless you'll be punished if you don't, of course.
tries to look every bit like 'Little Miss Rule Follower' but that damned twinkle in her eye gives her away, every time, especially when one word makes it shine even brighter
Did...did you say punished...?
*He chuckles quietly, brow arching at her as he nods slowly*
Indeed I did. Isn't that what happens when you don't follow the rules?
So I've heard...but in order to be punished, one first has to be caught, yes?
Head tips slightly to the side
*A quiet chuckle, followed by a small shrug of the shoulders*
I suppose, technically, that's true. But with the proper patience... one is always caught eventually.
Another theory to test one day, perhaps...?
Grins, mentally going through her favourite and best hiding places

*A smirk quirks his lips, followed by a slow shake of the head*
No... that one is a law. Proven time and again. Everyone slips up. Just have to be ready when they do, is all...
An eyebrow rises ever so slightly, there's the tempting hint of a challenge there...extremely tempting...
Interesting. Very interesting.
