So, I’ve been trying to research local adult swim & volleyball teams in my spare time, which isn’t much these days.  I’m a little guilty of being enraptured by the Olympic spirit & am ready to tackle any volleyballs that are heading towards me.

Funny thing is that all the adult swim teams in the area, like the two that I found, cost $50 to $65 per month.  Now all that is well & good if you’re not already paying around that much per month at your favorite YMCA, which don’t, by the by, have their own adult swim teams.  So that’s a no-go.

On to volleyball.  Now, I remember playing the game once or twice in middle school, so I’m obviously not a baller, but you would think there would be a place for a 6′1″ athletic girl on someone’s team.  A team that would be willing to be a bit on the patient side & offer some pointers or two.  Ummm, after checking out a ‘practice’ session at a local Y last night, apparently that’s going to be a hard thing to pull off since I felt like I was at a cut-throat match even as an onlooker.

I guess that means that it’s back to couch-sitting, TV-watching sports.  Well, at least football season is just about to flower, right?

So, have you been inspired by the Olympics in some way?  Maybe competitive chip eating?
