Confession time - opened a bottle of red wine and watched all Alina‘s programs from the last three seasons. There was an already openned bottle of rose, but I decided watching Alina required red. It didn‘t help much, still sad.
Called the people I had already invited to watch Russian Nats and canceled the invitation. Sounded so grim that I got them worried. They are not fs fans, so I don‘t think they could entirely grasp the gravity of the situation.
So, tomorrow I will have confused friends and family. I started watching fs not long ago (less than 2 years), have never been a sports fan, so everyone (including me) is surprised at how invested I suddenly am.
Thought I would share here because you would understand and you know how special she is. It is not the end of the world, of course. It is actually great that she is taking a well-deserved break. She looked relieved during the interview and I am glad she can catch her breath from all the insane pressure. But no competition will be the same without Alina and the red hearts on the ice...
