I have to admit, before this year's Olympic Games, I had never heard of Simone Manuel. After the Olympic Games, I would probably not have heard of Simone Manuel if she hadn't been discussed, displayed, and touted as the first African American woman to win a gold medal in swimming.

Ziva. The Beach Boys. The Los Angeles Dodgers.
Sometimes the mind does strange things when different thoughts are linked together. Those who know me are seldom surprised with the direction my mind goes at times. For instance, today I started thinking about Ziva (Yes, Ziva is the name given to our new rescued German Shepherd.), the Beach Boys, and the Los Angeles Dodgers.

I remember Flo Jo.
I remember the long, lithe legs that moved Flo Jo with the grace of a gazelle, the speed of an antelope, the strength of a Bengal Tiger. I remember the long, polished fingernails, the face of a model, a softness that belied her fierce competitive nature.

I wasn't asleep. But then, I wasn't really awake either.
I wasn't dreaming, but I was at that stage where it was hard to tell the difference between a dream I couldn't control and fantasy thinking that I could control.
