It's out of love that I am frustrated. It ruins my day when I find out that he was right down the road from me... yesterday. It's nice to have a little forewarning so that his fans can make arrangements to see him or to watch on tv. Okay, what did I miss here? ETA: Oh wait, is this just a general rant? Because I was thinking...he was just down the road from you yesterday? I must really be out of it to have missed that. LOL Oh, sorry Susie and everyone else. I was actually just generally ranting... he wasn't just down the road from me yesterday, but he has in the past and I have missed it due to being uninformed about it until after it happened. Many of us can identify with this though. I am sick of having to say, "Oh shoot, there he was in D.C., oh and again in Lake Placid. How did I not know about that? Is he or is he not coming to Saratoga Springs next week for the competition? Is he not competing tomorrow at Nationals or should I book a flight?" There have been so many things that I would have loved to have attended to support our Apolo, but it just wasn't publicized until it had already passed. If people are going to be in the audience or a part of something Apolo does, it should be Apolo fans that get dibs and we should be the ones filling those seats. I hate it when I see paople that have attended something and Apolo is there, but they don't even know who he is or what he has accomplished. We all understand and have displayed amazing loyalty to the guy. We should know so we can be there first.... Apolo deserves that and we deserve that. It greatly disappoints me because besides my family and intimate friends, he is my favorite person in the world. He lights up my days and gives me unexpected excitement with every new competition, photo, interview or appearance. P.S. I will also volunteer to be his assistant, his his limo driver, his shoe polisher, his sock picker-upper... whatever he needs! Apolo, just let me know!  |

Interesting that he was bronze i 2006. For some reason I thought his season ended with the Olympics, and he went on his PR junket for a few months....
