I wholeheartedly believe that everyone deserves to have a Summer Obsession, you know, something they can completely submerse themselves in, head over heels, for a short-lived sun-fueled love affair. For 2009, mine is the television show Wipeout.
If you haven't seen this show, I highly recommend checking it out. It has everything you could ever want in a show! Giant obstacle course? Check. Water? Check. Mud? Check? Fire? Check. Foam-covered, colorfully padded surfaces? Check. Enormous red balls? Check. Sometimes out-of-shape contestants that have no business near a giant obstacle course? Check. Humor? Check. Oh and let's not forget the actual wipeouts! Face plants. Check. Gravity-defying feats? Of course! Back-bending spills? You betcha!
Every Wednesday, I find myself counting down the hours until Wipeout is on the air! I can't quite explain it, but I have such a deep pull to this show. An attraction SO great in fact, that after it aired last night I consciously awoke to find myself submitting my online application!
I would love to challenge the water luge, the wall of fists and, or course the sweeper arm in the final Wipeout Zone!
Cross your fingers!

We have been sucked into watching this show many times this summer also. It does provide some comic relief. :)
