tanned and injured
i was really meaning to do laundry today… but my sore ankle/heel kept me lazy and wandering around the house. this morning, i went to the tennis club to hit with the ball machine, and ended up breaking my strings. pooh. it was the perfect opportunity to demo a new racquet, though. i tried a titanium yonex… it’s ok, but it doesn’t feel quite perfect. it might just need some getting used to, though. i’ll try it out again tomorrow. i did beat a poor high school freshman in a set today, 6-0. poor boy. his coach thanked me later for beating up on him. ha! i was about to leave the courts for a shower and some lunchy when another coach asked me to play a tiebreaker with his student, a high school girl. very fun! i tensed up and lost 4 points in a row [doh!] but i ended up winning 7-5. it’s nice to be loved, though. i don’t even have to ask for matches here! they ask me. ;)
too bad the summer is almost over. if anything, i’ll be hitting all by my lonesome at the crack of dawn. to buy: new balls, a basket, and some sportscreme. stupid foot.
