The winter Olympics are here! I missed the opening ceremonies but have been catching up this weekend on my curling, and figuring skating, and ice hockey (Oh my!).  Last week, I was in a very consistent routine of frustrating day following by amazing music night (seriously, music saves).  This week, I’ll have to choose between Olympics vs. shows which will be tough, except for Thursday night when I will be at the Hotel Cafe for what I guarantee will be a magical evening of music.
