– I really want this Tiger Woods thing to go away. Yes, the guy has been cheating on his wife. I think we’ve established that quite thoroughly. I guess I wonder about the women. Are they claiming they didn’t know he was married. Or the ones that did know wanted just to hang with him anyways because he was rich and famous? Don’t get it. I am happy Tiger’s kids are small and hopefully have no idea what is going on. Kids are always the victims when their parents really screw up.
– I am slowly turning into a snowbird. I love winter, I love a pretty snowfall. But I increasingly don’t want to live in a 20-degree world for 6 months of the year. I wonder if there are any foreclosed mansions available in Maui for $1? (Because that’s about all I can afford right now).
– Irony: my surgeon told me to build up my right quad in order to help with my knee rehab. So I did. A lot of lifts. Now, I’ve built up my quads too much and need to get the hamstrings going. What will go next? Weaken the Achilles? 🙂
– Irony II: The USTA moved me up from a 3.5 to a 4.0 in my tennis ranking. Which I understand, since I was on fire last summer and only lost one match. The match I lost was the one where I blew my knee out. So I don’t count that as a loss. I didn’t play that through to the bitter end. My screaming and rolling on the ground in pain got in the way of playing. But given that I can’t play for a while, and when I do come back, I will be in the slow lane for months – why not let me appeal? There is a medical appeal process, but it has gotten so tough – thanks people who lied about their injuries!!! jerks!!! – that I have no shot in hell of getting moved down. Which is not cool. I don’t think I am going to play USTA for a long while, thanks to their lovely ruling. The worst part? The 3.5 team I love so much will not be an option for me. I will miss those women – especially my partner Sherylle. Just not right. bad enough I got hurt. But the USTA has made it worse. How about policing Serena and her outbursts better and leave me alone?!?!?
