Opening Ceremonies

So today is opening ceremonies of the winter olympics and therefore the start of the knitting olympics. I wasn't a very good athlete I didn't do my training, no swatches done to check gauge. Well I'll just have to do it while I watch the opening ceremonies this evening I guess. I know we're supposed to cast on at 2pm EST but I'm at work so I'm just going to wait, plus I think it would be cooler to cast on while watching the ceremonies.
