Yeah, but that’s not what everybody will be talking about at work. Sitting down to watch the amazing US-Canada gold medal game yesterday I knew the Canadians would win, but it was a nailbiter there for a while.
Foreigners who have covered 17 Olympics say that when it comes to public drinking at the Olympics, there is no second place. On that basis I am very very very glad I never went downtown.
Watched Zombieland. It’s got Sean of the Dead in a headlock for the title of the best Zomcom. Woody Harrelson is fantastic, and I really liked Abigail Breslin, even if her character nearly gets everybody killed.
The start of the thing before the thing.
Here are the lyrics and here is the song that Katie likes the most these days. Safe for work and utterly charming. Katie says the song is about insomnia…. speaking of which she cured her insomnia. She quit eating sugar.
My chance to dig out the garden plot was yesterday afternoon and it corresponded with the hockey game. Sigh.
The energy before, during and after the US-Canadian hockey game was amazing. Seeing this energy radiate across Canada really gave me hope that Canadian do have what it takes to start anew and be successful in the world economy.
