Why oh why is a 200m back race the highlight of my day?

I promise I'll never do that again. I watched the race half with my hand in front of my eyes. I am a wreck, shivering and my heartrate is beyond healthy. But fuck it, it was Aaron against Mike and RyRy.
And I could kill them for doing that. It was a close race until the last 25m or so. Haven't been worked up over a race that much since the 2004 Olympic Trials. Goddamn Aaron!

God, someone should shoot me now.Seriously. Larsen is next and I so going to watch it. Okay Bren first then Larsen.
Excuse my while I go and be sick for some minutes.

BTW I hate C- and B-Finals at least at Nationals when I am already nervous enough. Thanks a lot for ruining my nerves a lot more than necessary. And yes I just have to bitch because it really is unhealthy to get worked up that much.

ETA 1 WOW. Holy cow Bren!
Also Aaron: meet record is cool.

ETA 2 Sheep Larsen made the team. Thank God. Even though Erik was almost 6 seconds ahead of him. But I think Larsen can do much better than a 15:11.11.
But wow Erik is back.

ETA 3 OMG JAMIE!... CW relay with Mike, Jamie, Davis and Klete. So cool. They won.

You confused me! My first thought was "WTF? Aaron wasn't in the 200 m backstroke finale!". But then I realized you didn't talk about the EM finale at all. ;-)
