Well to my surprise, I actually did something today. After spending most of the day on the computer tagging and organizing my pictures, I went to Memorial Park along with Darlene, Jon, and Joy to play some tennis. We played doubles for most of the time. The teams were Darlene and Jon vs. me and Joy....
Things I LOVE: MY NEW HOUSE (still)! It's still fun to be unpacking and cleaning and making everything pretty. Minus art on the walls and a garage full of crap, pretty much everything is unpacked and put away. It's so loverly. That the wind has finally carried that nasty, smoky, unbreathable air...

This year's men's final in Wimbledon was the best tennis I have EVER seen. Roger Federer (1) and Rafael Nadal (2) were so evenly matched that it was impossible not to be riveted. Never before have I felt so torn about who I wanted to win. At first I was all about Federer. He seems like a really...
Have you ever broken a bone? If not, what's the worst injury you've sustained? I just spent the last 20 minutes writing a some what amusing account of when I sprained my ankle last year playing tennis, and then to the alarm of my co-workers didn't hot foot it to the doctor's for an x-ray or MRI...
I mentioned Ana in my first Wimbledon post, and we were all sad to see her get upset in the tournament for obvious reasons. Fear not, for the fine folk at FHM have filled the void.
Spent most of yesterday watching the Wimbeldon showdown between Federrer and Nadal. It was probably the best match I've ever watched!!! With rain delays, Adam was back from golf and able to enjoy the amazing fifth set with me.... the fact that either of them could still see the ball after 9PM was...
Wimbledon 08, British Grass by kgott
I've really enjoyed playing tennis with Jon every week and my game has gotten better, though I'm still a novice at best. Today we bit the bullet and upgraded our rackets from the teenage ones we had purchased over six years ago to a couple adult sized real world rackets. All I have to say is... I...
Take THAT, Federer! The first time since the Raven's Super Bowl win that I've been truly excited about an athletic event.
We just watched a truly remarkable men's final between Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal. Nadal finally won 9-7 in the fifth set on his fourth or fifth match point. Nadal's my favourite player - he's so ferocious and charismatic on the court, and so unassuming and polite off it - and I'm glad he was...
Sadly, not the Williams sister I was rooting for though! From BBC News: Venus Williams struggled to come to terms with her achievement after beating sister Serena in straight sets to win her fifth Wimbledon title. "It's monumental," she said. "I would have been more disappointed not making history...
I've always found it somewhat ironic that for the past 40 years, the only major sporting event broadcast over America's airwaves on the July 4th holiday is the goings on at the All England Lawn Tennis & Croquet Club. But when else would Americans get up at 6am on a Sunday morning to dine on...
Read Article from Reuters: Venus Williams Wins the Wimbledon Title Love my Williams sisters! Serena thanked Jehovah! Love to know she is spiritual. I am glowing just observing their excitement. Venus was graceful in her comments to her sister. Venus thanked her sisters, her sparing partner and she...
Back at Wimbledon this week, courtesy of BA's ad agency, BBH. Saw the "big 2" in action, Federer and Nadal. Both trounced their opponents rather comprehensively. Very impressive. Looking forward to what should be a great final, although we won't be able to watch it live since we'll be at the British...
Hey fellow voxers, So yesterday I went down to Birmingham to see Jack Johnson at the NIA. It was freaking amazing! The best thing about it was that the NIA didn't fill up as much as it could have and therefore made the gig pretty intimate for an arena of that size. Jack is SO nice and friendly,...
I heard this saying about ten years ago, coming out from a buddy who doesn't actually play any real sports, it did bother me a little, especially when at that time women's tennis wasn't too 'attractive'. Until in recent years women's tennis has been dominated by mostly good-looking eastern european...
Everything I was meant to do this weekend kind a went a bit wrong. But my weekend was still all kinds of brilliant. I went to Wimbledon. Hooray! For two hours. I woke up late and had to queue all on my own as Sam and Kelly sensibly went on ahead. I would have had to queue until about 1 and that just...
I just spent the last hour or so working on my homework assignment online as soon as I click "Submit," the screen refreshes to a "Down for maintenance" notice. WDF? Please, please, please tell me my shit was successfully saved and submitted because I seriously do not have to the time nor effort to...
