Games Fever

I've never been huge on the olympics or the commonwealth games, etc, but for some reason this time around i'm really getting into it. Not being able to move and do much may have something to do with it, but i'm really enjoying the fervour, tension and excitement the Olympic games brings. Its kinda cool to have 2 channels showing it too, so if u dont like one event, u can always try the other. If SBS & 7 arent showing anything of interest, then i can switch to the Eurosports channel which has all live scores while giving a 24-7 coverage of ALL sport in the world. Ahh.... how great is the armchair life?

I have been feeling like quite the sloth though, getting up at midday, watching the Games and combating with the xbox, and watchin the excitement the games bring into the wee hours of the night. I guess the recent weather patterns dont allow me to do otherwise, but it sux to feel so useless.

They say time flies when you're having fun. I've never thought much of it, but i cannot believe i only have 1 wk to go b4 i have to return to work. I never thought i'd say this, but i dont wanna go back!!!! :( Upon reflection, its kinda sad that so much of our lives revolve around working, all to earn this thing called money, in order to do the things we like. And in the times we dont work, we all whinge about how tired we are from work or how we hate work, etc.... Does it ever end? I know in my time off, i've come to appreciate the times i DONT have to work, and perhaps start thinkin that there's a heck of a lot more to life than just WORK....
