OK, here’s my Olympics commentary for the day:

I don’t understand the female athletes who can do what they’re doing with their hair flying around. All I do is sit at a desk all day and be a lawyer (super easy stuff), and I have to braid my bangs and put my hair in a bun when it’s been more than 24 hours since a fresh wash. I’m not running or vaulting or playing volleyball. My most strenuous activity most days is leaning down to get snacks out of my bottom desk drawer. (Don’t judge. Eating multiple small meals is good for your metabolism. Or something like that.)

Is this blazer ablaze, or what?! Man, I crack myself up. I also can’t stop, won’t stop with my love of “rorange” this summer. This blazer is red enough that I think it counts as repping the ol’ red, white, and blue just in time for the Olympics.

Is everyone enjoying the Olympics so far? It’s crazy how fast these people can swim. And I bet it’s even faster than it looks on TV. I wish I could go to the pool with Michael Phelps just to get a true sense of how fast he is. I’m pretty sure he would get to the other end and back, and I would still be standing by the edge. Granted, that’s because I would be pouring a margarita. I mean, you can’t go the pool without a pool-appropriate beverage, right? Right. So by the time I prepped, poured, and sipped my marg, got in the pool 2 inches at a time, and swam halfway across, Michael would’ve burned 1000 calories and I would feel like a complete joke. Still, I think it would be a cool experience. I’m going to go ahead and start carb loading in preparation.
