The Olympics are oddly like heroin

While Leisure Girls enjoys many kinds of television entertainment, I am beyond not a sports person. Other than faking interest when I was first dating someone ("I LOVE football!") I can happily go my whole life without watching any sporting events, the Superbowl included.

And, in the past, this disinterest has included the Olympics. Un-American? Perhaps, but I just didn't find any of it that interesting.

I have now spent 80% of the last weekend watching the Olympics, and it seems like the more I watch, the more I want to see. I cannot at all explain this phenomenon, but I do know what I will be doing tonight.
