A Contented Blogger is a Boring Blogger

Its not that things have been boring, not at all. Its just that I am, overall, pretty contented and happy these days.

Sure there are momentary hassles, like running out of cream for morning coffee or not having enough Cheetos to make it through an evening. But overall, we're a happy little family unit. A wet or dirty diaper may occasionally intrude into the peace but we're really pretty happy.

The weather's been crap lately so maybe I'll bitch about that. But it is hard to really be unhappy especially when my baby boy is slumped over on my chest and making his faint snoring sounds.

I think I'll watch Katie Couric try to be hip at the Olympics and hey, there's Al Roker pretending to be an athlete, that's only mildly stupid but he really should get a no-shirts-off-ever clause in his next contract. I don't know, is the coverage better this time around? What's up with the mostly empty stadiums for the games? I'm watching events and I can see entire sections of the stands totally empty.

Is it because the world's economy is on the downlow right now or are people scared of the terrorist threat or scared of the Greek security response? Where are all the people? I don't think Greece is going to see that billion dollar injection into its economy but I'm sure they'll do just fine.

Now we've just gotta catch China again, they keep getting ahead of the US in the medal counts and we all know that that is just not right!
