Last night I watched an amazing special on the wild horses of Mongolia with Julia Roberts. It was absolutely beautiful. The simple lifestyle of the nomad. I could probably learn a lesson or two from them. They pack up their houses and move whenever they have to find new land for grazing. They only have what they need, and it all packs up (house and all) into a few bundles they load on horses. I think it's going to take three trips with a truck for my stuff. Part of me wishes that I had the opportunity to go over there and experience things like that. Someday... perhaps.
I think I am really going to miss the Olympics. It was a nice release. It's kind of sad to think that it will be so long until the next one. I have come to love these sports and these atheletes, whereas before I had probably watched alpine arials a total of zero times. Maybe I should organize a group for people suffering from Olympic withdrawal. I can figure out when the other major championship events happen in these sports and put out a schedule for everyone interested. Hmm, it's a thought. When I find myself with some free time... I'll call it Danielle's Olympic Hangover.
