Escaping the Cup sounds wise; I had friends who rented out their apartments in Atlanta during the Olympics and made enough money for their own vacation :). It tells you something about America that I had no idea this was going on yet . . .
I'm glad you're enjoying HLOTS -- how far have you gotten? The season one ensemble really is so damn perfect that it's hard to wish for more or less of anybody. When I look back now, after many viewings, I discover a slight special-preference for Felton (the lesser Baldwin brother) who manages to be the kind of guy who would annoy the hell out of me if I had to work with him, but who is great fun to watch. Also, Bolander/Munch are clearly the most slashable pairing, although apparently not young and cute enough for fandom (though there is a lot of Munch/Kay Howard het for some reason).
