			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://collegecandy.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/14/get-that-cake.jpg" alt="get-that-cake.jpg" align="left" />As I watched the world’s best athletes compete in the Olympics last night I began to regret never getting involved in sports growing up. At 5’10 I could have dominated the basketball/volleyball courts. I could have used my backyard swimming pool to hone my backstroke. I could have viewed my bike as more than just a means to get to the nearest ice cream shop.</p>
<p>But, just because I don’t know how to dive off of a <em>really</em> high platform or do flips on some uneven bars doesn’t mean that I, too, am not the best at something. I have some talents too, and they should not be shunned just because I can’t bring them to Beijing.</p>
<p>So, I give you the <strong>5 Sports I Would Win a Gold In (If They Were Included In The Olympics)</strong>:</p>
<p>1.    <strong>Cake Eating</strong>: With or without hands, I would totally take the cake (Ha!) in this event. I have a big mouth (to the chagrin of my mother and the glee of my men) that allows me to store massive quantities of cake and frosting goodness. I also happen to be able to seriously pack food away (which allowed me to excel in another sport: weight gain), so there is no stopping me in this competition.<span id="more-11266"></span></p>
<p>2.    <strong>Late Night Stiletto Run</strong>: While Michael Phelps was doin’ his thing in the pool, I was dedicating hours to perfecting this skill. I dare anyone to race me to the nearest pizza place in a pair of heels. You can even throw a few hurdles (girl passed out on sidewalk, traffic, or inclement weather) in my way and I will beat out all the competition. Yes, even the Chinese.</p>
<p>3.    <strong>The Bargain Hunt</strong>: I have been practicing this one since I left the womb. Show me an item and I will find it for you cheaper. And I will do it fast.</p>
<p>4.    <strong>That’s What She Said</strong>: I can turn anything into something sexual at a record breaking speed. (That’s what she said.) I don’t care how hard it is (that’s what she said), or how many people are involved (that’s what she said). I like to do it hard and do it fast (that’s what she said).</p>
<p>5.    <strong>Bullsh*tting</strong>: I hate to toot my own horn (that’s what she said), but I am really good at making people think I care/like them/have any interest in what they have to say. My combination head nod, mixed with witty banter have fooled people for years and I have no doubt I would rock it in Beijing (even with the language barrier).</p>
