Quitter

i can`t help it I`m a quitter
from inside I`m cold and bitter

-- gas giants

It was while watching the springboard synchronized diving competition that I realized I couldn't blog the Olympics anymore.

Even after cashing in all my frequent-flier miles and savings bonds; and selling most of my furniture and my (left, slightly damaged) kidney, I can no longer afford to fly to Athens; return home; blog the Olympics; return to Athens; return home; blog the Olympics; repeat; rinse; repeat. In retrospect, I think I should have brought the laptop with me.

Ah, hindsight! If only you had thought of bringing the laptop BEFORE you purchased that first plane ticket...

Worse, I sold my TV for the return ticket, so now I can't even watch the Olympics.

Oh, well.

It really is a shame there aren't any computers available for use (or sale) in Athens. After a few shots of Ouzo the Greek letters start to make sense.
