I love the Tour de France. It is one of my favorite things about being a teacher: I get to sit at home on my couch every day for two weeks of summer watching hour upon hour of the coolest race ever. To those of you who may not have ever engaged in this rapturous (and addictive) experience, watching two (or more, sometimes it's so good I just watch it twice) hours of the Tour every day may sound excruciatingly boring. But believe me, you're missing out.Sadly, this year, so am I. For some reason, Time-Warner re-organized their services and so our subscription no longer includes the channel that broadcasts the live Tour all day every day. Dang it! It was going to be the highlight of my summer! Now I just have to read about it online and hope for a few highlights on ESPN. So if you get Versus and want to invite me over for a few hours, I'd be profoundly grateful. Meanwhile, I'll be sitting here mourning my loss of the Tour, looking forward to next summer when I can watch every televised minute of the 2008 Summer Olympics instead.

At least you get to come visit your awesome nephew who invited you to come watch the tour!
Good for people to know.
