Cherish the Crazy


When some things aren't working well in my life, I often compensate by channeling energy into other activities. Tennis and gym workouts have been the focal point of my week. I've had two grueling workouts with a personal trainer and three tennis matches this week alone.

I have lots to be appreciative of. One is my 8-0 winning streak in tennis. I have buried the opposition. Don't fret, the tournament Gods have seen to it that I get a reality check tomorrow. I have drawn the #1 seed in the first round of this weekend's USTA New Orleans tournament. Grrr...

I may very well be spanked right out of this tournament, but it'll be good practice. Next weekend, I'll be playing on gorgeous courts at Biscayne Bay in Miami for a GLTA tournament. It'll be good to see my GLTA buds again. They love tennis as much as I do.

Nothing wrong with a good spanking once in a while.

good job at the gym! A lot of the newbies are probably pretty sore by now! Good luck at the tourney.

I tend to channel my craziness into eating. Though a healthy spanking now and again sounds nice ;-)

I lost 6-3, 7-5 to the #1 seed. My opponent had a killer serve, slice and pace. I was only two points away (at deuce) from taking the second set when I was up 5-4 in the second set. I failed. So, off to the loser's bracket (consolation) this morning.
