olympics



This time of year is always special for me; not only is it my birthday but every 4 years it is the Winter Olympics. This year it has become quite an obession of mine in following. I find myself looking a at the official website, moving things around in my schedule to watch events, screening calls, and wanting to find a sport that I can train for...well I may have found one - CURLING. That's right, I said "CURLING"; it is a fasinating "sport"/"game". I have spent a good amount of time watching the men's team and have grown quite fond of them. HBO sports did a story on the team prior to the Olympics along with some high lights on skiers and figure skaters. Now don't get me wrong I truly love the snowboarding and speedskating but my time has passed without any chance of training to be an athlete in that sport.

So - Russia 2014...get ready - you may see me throwing the "rock" down the alley and walking around athlete village as a CURLER. Until then enjoy the olympics and GO TEAM USA!
