Hockey is so fast! I love it.
I'm either a bad patriot or a faily sports fan, though, because I sort of want Canada to win simply because they didn't medal anywhere near the way they wanted to throughout the games.
I get confused. I remember everything. I remember too much, and... some of it's made up, and... some of it can't be quantified, and... there's secrets.

Amy, really? I thought I heard on the news that they didn't Gold medal at all in their last two hosted Olympics, and they're thrilled with this year's haul?

Except for the fact that we have won the most gold medals of the games? And the most golds won by a host nation? And that if we win this game, we will have won the most gold medals won by any nation at the winter games?
Things have turned around in the last few days.

Oh! Someone told me they wanted to win, like, fifty, and had only won something like twenty-five. I have no clue. I usually only watch the figure skating, so.
Um. Go USA!

There was some panic after week one that we'd only won 7 medals, and were predicted to win 30. But we've come on strong the last 4 days.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"
I just really am enjoying watching the Olympic hockey games. I don't care who wins and I find myself rooting for both teams which is odd. I'm just lovin' the play.
