London 2012 Olympics, watch out!

Envision a pack of researchers, donned in sunglasses and t-shirts, trudge out to a sand volleyball court in a park behind their office building. In a lively game of volleyball, they endeavor to prove that although they sit in front of a computer or lab desk all day, they still hold their own in athletics.

Well, maybe we don't quite prove our athletic prowess, but we do make a show.

Tuesday afternoons are one of the most fun times when I'm at home for the summer. And although I am probably the worst player out there, what I lack in skill, I make up for with sound effects, as I screech and "wooop!" across the volleyball court.


I am getting better, though, maybe due to increased coordination from the bit of frisbee I played last year at school (thanks Leslie!). By 2012, I'm sure I'll be ready for my world debut.
