Tennis sucks
OK, I've been on hiatus for a while attending to personal business. However, I felt compelled to jot down a frustration of mine. I play recreational tennis (or at least, "think" I play tennis) and for some reason I can't find the right strings for my racquets. I was breaking the strings on my old racquet pretty often so I decided to buy a new one with a bigger "sweet spot". I hoped this would lead to my strings lasting longer. Unfortunately, the strings on my new racquet only lasted about 8 outings. Now I gotta freakin' dish out more money to get it restrung. I gotta stop "hacking" and hit better. I'm going to see if I can slow down my stroke and work on getting to the ball (i.e. better footwork). Or maybe just take up a different sport. Maybe cycling.

Either way, tennis, cycling, curling, at least your getting some exercise. Except for maybe curling. But it looks fun to do!

Exercise, smexercise. I'm just getting pissed that I gotta dish out more money for restringing.

Cycling is NOT the way to go if you want to keep from spending the cash. I could get a used car now, for what I've spent on cycling.
But I am in fairly good health for a fat man.
