Let the Games Begin!

The Olympic competition begins today!

There has been soooo much chatter about security, hotels, toothpaste, computer hacking, and terrible issues in Russia. It's time to celebrate the athletes, who are seeing their dreams to compete in the Olympic Games come true.

The Opening Ceremony is tomorrow, but the competition begins today.

Congratulations to all of the Athletes. Can't wait to see who brings home the Gold!
I'll look forward to celebrating their accomplishments with anyone who wants to post about it.

I usually bitch & moan about NBC's coverage of sports, but since it looks like they're making every event available live via the web, I need to find something else to bitch & moan about.

Here's hoping the athletes can break through all the negative events and energy and once again demonstrate the indomitabilty of the human spirit.

I'll be rooting for 19-year-old figure skater Jason Brown.

Be well and safe Addy!

Are you staying in one of the hotels they built?

As will I PJ and my favorite pair skaters, Meryl Davis & Charlie White.

I fly over on Monday!

And, Taz - I am staying in the 'mountain cluster' at a hotel that is already built and is (according to my colleagues who are already there) really lovely.
(Apparently they've added staff during our stay who are well-schooled in 'international hotel' needs and also have a background in security!)

I promise to stay safe.

PalJoey - I'm rooting for Jason Brown, also.
Thrilling skater!

Boobs - I'm not as familiar with that pair, but will root for them, too!

Watching the Today Show this morning really gave my Olympic spirit a big boost!

Addy, if you run into Charlie can you please ask him for a picture. He is just so adorable. I can't wait to see him back on the ice. I'm a big fan!

Check your hotel room! And if you can bring me back one of those stray Sochi dogs I'll be happy to adopt it!
