I can’t say I’m totally over my state of pique, but I’ve moved on. Tonight I dashed home from work in order to arrive in time to watch the women’s figure skating finals. What’s not to like about a 16 year old who not only skates her heart out but out jumps everyone else – there wasn’t any question as to who had done more technically.

In between gasping at the screen and wondering how the heck you learn that sort of thing (ok, I’m gonna skate real fast, turn around a couple times, then jump REALLY high — all the while spinning around three bloody times AND I’m gonna land so gracefully you’ll think that it must be easy.) I actually got some binding sewn on. The first short side is done and about 2/3 or so of the top long side is done. It just goes on and on.
