Gee, what a big weekend we have in front of us. First off, there’s that whole Olympics thing getting started tonight. From what I understand, pretty much every event will be streaming on the intertubes, so there’s no reason to miss any Beach Volleyball matches. Not to mention Dressage. Speaking of horses, poor old Mitt managed to step in horse shit right from the git-go over there in London. Way to piss off the Brits (and here I thought Romney understood the special bond white people have with one another).

As if the Olympics weren’t enough, it’s also Harborfest up in Oswego (which, of course, means nothing to most of you out there – but then it doesn’t mean much to me, either, since I won’t be attending any of it). Lots of bands and lots of stumbling around drunk. Ah, if only I was young again. Or still.

The severe weather that came through yesterday pretty much missed us, thank goodness. We got some rain, and that was about it. South of us got hit pretty hard, though, and Elmira appears to have had a tornado. I’m glad that stuff mostly stays in the Midwest and the South and stuff (no offense to you folks, but you can keep the hurricanes and tornadoes and stuff; I’ll stick with snow).

Oh well, I guess I’d better get back to work here. Let’s get this damn week over with already.
