Unexpected news story with stock footage of me playing the violin at 0:55. Four years ago.

OH YOUR FACE IN A TUBE.

ETA, from the comments of the pop culture blog I'm commentating on Olympic gymnastics for: "I watched the men's gymnastics last night, which I never would have done (and never have done) if not for Taylor's post. Definitely appreciate people bringing their knowledge here."

OH MY GOD YOU GUYS, POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT FTW.

YEAH. SO. I can't believe I just now pieced together that you have a gig with ALOTT5MA?!?!?! FOR THE RECORD, I'M A CRAPPY FRIEND, AND DISCOVERED THIS UPON CHECKING MY GOOGLE READER.

How does that happen? Not to, uh, pry?

HAHAHA nice. I didn't want to link it directly because, uh, that's the reason I switched LJs, and I'm sure they have trackback links. I was deliberately obtuse :)

How? A couple weeks back somebody made a post about wanting people to cover Olympic events with particular knowledge of the sport. I gambled that my high school gymnastics career, as sad as it was, was enough to make some sort of commentary on the sport and sent them an email.

THAT'S AWESOME. (About the only segment I've ever been qualified to contribute to is Summer Cocktail Series, and, well, I tried to write one about gin and it was just embarrassing.)
