I love the Olympics. There's nothing like them...and every 2 years for 14 days, I am a happy girl!
Tonight I stayed home (since I'm not feeling 100%) and watched the opening ceremonies. It was great, we ordered food and had a comical play by play.
I have to say I wasn't that impressed with the opening 
ceremonies, Beijing are still stunning compared to these. I enjoyed Sarah, KD and the whales...but I feel jipped...where was CELINE!? Mike Meyers? Alanis? Micheal J. Fox?

Here are illustrations of the mascots (3 of the 4) and the logo.
I also went ahead and sketched my ensemble from today.
It was warmer than its been today, but I bundled up a bit since I'm still sniffly, tired and a bit hoarse. I'm VERY much hoping to feel better tomorrow since I have a fun weekend planned...farmer's market tomorrow, girls valentine's tomorrow night, and nothing planned on Sunday...but it's a triple holida weekend...President's Day Weekend, Valentine's Day Weekend AND ...wait for it...MARDI GRAS! Que fun! But...I have to get better, this cold already took my planned fun away tonight.
I only saw bits and pieces of the opening ceremonies after the fact (and didn't see the ones from Beijing) but I thought there were some nice moments. Liked the snowborder going through the rings and I thought k.d. lang was amazing.
