Ok, I’m taking the bait.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I mean… whether I’ll swallow all of it remains to be seen, but… OK, here goes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Well… I *MIGHT* augment my posts here with my powers. Might. I mean, we’ll see. I kind of think I won’t, but… these things do tend to get out of hand, even if it looks like it won’t, this time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And it doesn’t. Honestly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Some initial thoughts- things look much more “fun” this time around, which is very very much appreciated. I mean it’s not like things have started yet but that’s certainly the kind of vibrations I’m getting from the place. I mean- I’m contrasting this Olympics with, say, Sochi and the war nonsense etc. This one seems “normal”. Good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Well… I see that NBC \/ Peacock did it’s prep work to prepare for me this time around, and I of course prepared for them ahead of time as well. I intend to make full vampiric use of the athletes’ energies. A couple of weeks ago I purchased a set of very expensive high end urethane dumbbells that I will eagerly break in during the coming festivities. I’ll probably also hone all of the new barre\/pilates exercises I’ve learned in my classes lately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On that note I’m still using two small ankle weights per leg. Maybe by next Olympics I’ll be using one large 10 lb ankle weight per leg, or maybe one 10 lb plus a smaller one. Or maybe that’s for a distant future, IDK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It’s fun, this stuff, lol. Really, it is. It is A LOT of fun getting stronger. Especially when it is done in ways that are so complete and safe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At any rate, I will suck as much life energy as I can out of everything that I can, like… IDK, some kind of creepy old vampire, lol. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It appears as though I may be living for a very very very long time, if things are what they appear to be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hooray? Who knows, lol. We’ll see I guess.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Anyhoo- back to the games- today I watched a bunch of stuff on peacock… Prime? Premium? Extra? It’s the package you get with Xfinity. Athlete highlight reels, promos and such. Tomorrow I’ll be watching the little movies and whatevers. You know, the little mini docs about past controversies and the requisite minimovie about the Miracle-On-Ice, etc. I guess I’ll do this to get in the swing of things, to taste the Olympic flavor, to… ahhhh touch the cauldron, to, well… absorb the experience. Then, the opening ceremony. Then the stuff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You know- I’ve not mentioned you-know-who, or… you-know-who-else. And I likely won’t, except right now… yes, I WILL mention… nah. Nope, won’t do it, not going to. You were allllll waiting for it, weren’t you? Well, MAYBE I’m writing this because my Italian wife who must not be named put that on her insta, MAYBE not, but you’ll just have to guess, because quite honestly, I care not what you think, and that my friend is God’s honest truth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
