Most every evening for the past couple weeks I’ve been tuning in to watch the highlights of the 2012 Olympic games. Being a champion multi-tasker, I’m often doing something else during the commercials or competitions I have no interest in.
I’ve been riding my exercise bike (and going nowhere), returning phone calls, laying out the program for the next performance at the River City Playhouse, doing the dishes, folding laundry and generally living my life in between the more entertaining events.
And I’ve been playing hours and hours of solitaire. Marathon bouts of solitaire. So many games, in fact, that I’m pretty sure I qualify for the Guiness Book of Records, as there’s currently no Olympic competition for this activity.
Which, I’m pretty sure by now, makes it the only event left out.
