The weather has been gorgeous for the past several days. It’s time to start playing tennis again! I went to play tennis with Scott today. The last time that I played was probably a year ago. It’s been so long, but I still like the game. I realized that I might need to cut my hair because they are all over my face, and I can’t see the ball coming at me!

I also shed blood today. I was toward the front of the net when Scott hit a lob shot. So I ran back and tried this maneuver hitting the ball between my leg from the front. I almost hit the ball, but I was running toward the back of the court too fast and couldn’t stop. The end result was that I hit the wire fence and one of my fingers got caught in a part of the fence that sticks out (that’s very dumb.. whoever made that should be hit with a tennis raquet). I now have a two-inch long cut on my left middle finger. Also, I don’t like these fences any more. I think they replaced all of them a year back or something. I used to like them because they were sturdy. I could run to it, hit it, grabbed it, hung in there (or bounced back), and be fine. These new ones are pretty loose, which means that it would not support my weight. I would just keep going if I hit it…
