Wimbledon!

It's my favorite tennis season ever this year. I love this sport, I love this Grand Slam tournament, I might kinda love Roger Federer (shhh...) and I love chattering my friends' heads off about how much I love all of this.

So, what I guess I'm saying is that I acknowledge and understand why my phone won't be ringing for the next two weeks. But I'm trying (Wade)! I'm trying to keep the blathering to less than ten minutes. Still, what can I do? As I type this, there is a match between relative newcomers Isner and Mahut that is in its fifth set and the score is 53-52.

Did you see those numbers? 53! 52!

This is because at Wimbledon there is no fifth-set tie break. They'll play it out. Remember last year's Federer (sigh...) v. Roddick epic battle? Same thing, although the points did not get nearly as high.

So while I intend to go to meetings while I'm in DC this weekend, there's a strong chance I'll be holed up in my hotel room, watching tennis. And when I'm in Kentucky next week, I'll be in another hotel room, watching tennis.

It's what I do.
