The last two nights I have totally broken down and watched women's gymnastics. I am not necessarily a big fan of the Olympics - potentially because I'm not an athlete and I'm not competitive. The appealing part, to me, is the medal ceremony - potentially because I like to cry. Ok. Maybe I don't like to cry - but I like to see someone receive their reward.
It's the same feeling I get when someone wins American Idol...
Gets a new home on Extreme Makeover...
...or when an animal gets reunited with their owner after a flood or something....
Your throat goes tight and the bottom corners or your jaw start to tingle and little tears well up in the bottom of your eyes.
It's like a little inward celebration.
