Jamaica has a team! Of one.

We're the US army.

Are we bobsledding again? That was fun the first time. But it's not like I watched then either. Just wore the shirt.

I guess I'll wait another two weeks to find out when he can get coffee.

I'm sure it will be good coffee. I love long-delayed reunions.

Sorry about your headache, Suzi. I'm so glad I have no one to take care of when I get mine. I can't imagine the responsibility.

Luckily CJ is old enough he can take care of himself for the most part. I would have skipped the shopping, but the cupboards were very bare. I figured if I could get that done this morning then I wouldn't HAVE to go anywhere the rest of the weekend if I didn't want to.

No, the team didn't qualify this year. There's one freestyle skier. [link]

I am so glad you guys watched. I kept trying to talk Olympics all day today and my students were all "Hmm?" Had to laugh at the Great One`s bemused malfunction face. Loved the drunken torch pursuit.
 
I adore kd lang, so I loved her performance. I thought it was the best of the night. I`m always so smitten with her. Her sense of vocal control is so precise it`s astounding to me to compare it with her expressive passionate performance. Also I like her hair.

too bad you didn't end up here, I 'm thinking of sushi for lunch

I could do that some other weekend though!

Hmm. He makes me wonder if he's competing for us for the reduced qualification pool.

I have such a kd lang girlcrush. My taste in ladies I'd switch teams for (as opposed to ones I just think are pretty) isn't the femmest.

Which makes Kiefer the Nephew of universal health care!

Grandson.

His mother is a great advocate of her father's legacy, and she and Keifer have done cmapaigns and speeches to support universal health care when there's been talk of moving to a two-level system.

Isn't his grandfather the father of universal health care? That makes universal health care his mother's brother/sister/sibling.

Regardless, I'm glad to hear Kiefer is a good grandson and/or nephew of universal health care.

Accomplished so far today: two rounds of dishes-doing, hallway swept, took Matilda to a Valentine cookie decorating playdate over in megan walker's neighborhood (accomplished, miraculously, with a parking spot half a block away, in the shade [bright sunny neighborhood, bizarrely], with no parking ticket), stove/oven scrubbed down and completely degreased, living room picked up and vacuumed, last of the Christmas stuff returned to storage, entryway vacuumed, kitchen swept and recycling taken out.

Matilda is presently sacked out snoring on the couch, and I've taken a catching-up-on-all-the-threads-and-chowing-down-on-sweet-Maui-onion-kettle-chips break. Next up is either scrubbing out the bathtub or defilthing the kitchen floor. Both sound so fun and tempting, I just can't decide.

For the present, I am going to ignore the twice-Matilda's-weight sacks of laundry yet to be done. I can only move one mountain at a time.

yes you could

Accomplished so far today:

Good god! That's more than some people do in a week! You deserve a break, babe. And a big, big drink.
