Well, I don’t have a cat, so can’t use that excuse. But there’s one for you, Brandy. :)

Last night, I found out the Korean who won the gold medal the other night said Apolo Anton Ohno didn’t deserve to be on the podium! He said Ohno was the one causing all the problems on the ice! Them’s fightin’ words, mister! :boxing: Hello? We could see the film footage, you idiot! Your little cohorts knocked themselves out of medal contention. And now I wish you’d tripped up too! Okay, I see now he was talking about the semi-final rounds but still. The Koreans were just as bad as they claim Ohno was.

Tonight, we have a new episode of Burn Notice which I’ll be recording because, yes, it’s still all about the Olympics. Tonight we have the finals of the men’s figure skating, women’s snowboarding (half pipe, I believe), women’s speed skating, and skiing.

Did more revising last night.

Reading: Finished up Prime Time which I liked a lot. I’ll be getting the other books in the series. :) Next up…. I haven’t decided yet.

And last night’s Olympics report…. Spoilers Ahead!

It was a good day for the U.S. yesterday. In women’s downhill skiing, Lindsay Vonn and Julia Mancuso won gold and silver respectively. In men’s 1000m speed skating, Shani Davis won gold and Chad Hedrick won bronze. And in men’s snowboarding half pipe, Shaun White blew the competition out of the water (off the snow?) to win the gold. Scott Lago won the bronze. WTG, USA!!!

  1. I agree with you about the Anton Ohno race. I can’t believe that guy said that!

  2. Did you see Shaun White? He was awesome. I was so glad to see that speed skater pass the number 2 skater in the short track heat. I can’t think of his name, but he got the silver with Apolo.

  3. Is it just me or is there a lot of complaining from countries going on this year? Almost what I call the whiney baby syndrome. *G* As for the excuse, good one. *G*
    Good going on all the revising!

    I hope you’ve had a delightful day!

  4. Dear Korea: Wah, wah, wah… get over it.

    And your titles make my heart jump every time — I forget they aren’t REAL. This a.m. I though, ‘OH NO, her cat’s sick!!”

    And then I realized I’ve never heard you mention a cat. Sheesh… color me gullible.
