I literally have chill pills I am bringing with me on my trip.  Muchas gracias to my good friend that is also an acupuncturist .  

I wonder if rescue remedy works for humans.

May be this secrecy is just his way to built up the kind of excitement that will explode into million sparkly pieces ,right into your face ,like a firework ,you know..when he wins

All I have is stuff for calming horses and not even the good stuff!

Kobayashi also said, "This is a very bright news.", which gave me positive feeling

Does it mean they didn't expect him to resume training anytime soon? Sometimes I can't handle any more secrecy, although I understand the logic behind it .

I would recommend not taking the full horse dose, just in case.

OT But tangentially kind of Yuzu-ish, they have actually released warning not to eat those little detergent pods in the US.

That warning I think always existed, the kids just ignored it until they started getting poisoned by it...

 

Maybe I need a horse-strength sedative for Pyeongchang.

Stress eating for 4 weeks and I’ll need enough for 2 horses.

This is good - softly softly approach, testing the recovering ankle, taking it slowly rather than risking a setback.  The timescale is too tight to risk that. 3 years ago he'd have been flinging himself back onto the ice at the first opportunity and pushing through the injury.  

Even if he hadn't been injured I think he'd have been in stealth mode at this point.  That's why TCC is a good environment for him - keeps the media pressure at bay.

It is all great for him.

 

I suppose we must sacrifice our sanity for the greater good.

Exactly

I used a word "news", but in Japanese she said "This is a very bright 話 (story or topic)." I'm really trying to be patient now, too, but I think it was a good decision not to tell the details to the media (and his rivals ) to avoid any confusion or misunderstanding,

If it brings the greater good I will sacrifice the remains of my mental health for this purpose..

I feel weird because the secrecy and quietness don't really bother me... (Maybe it's a consequence of being a fan of a musician who is a virtual hermit about 350 days a year...)

 

I'm glad he's in TCC where they happily protect him from all outside interference and I think this will make his comeback even more spectacular.

 

Yes, it's really nerveracking for us, and I get palpitations only just thinking about the Olympics, but in this case, I like the anticipation. It's like the calm before the storm and  if everything falls into place, a win after all of this would be beyond epic. As befitting the GOAT, I would think.

I'm making a specific provision in my will that I want a wake, and at my wake I want his jump onto the podium played every half an hour.
