These were huge upsets! I think Venus plays Ivanovic tonight … and James Blake plays Federer either tonight or tomorrow. They’re the last two Americans left in the draw so I’ve got my fingers crossed. Yes … it’s quite human and exceedingly obsessive, but such is life.

Overall, I don’t watch much TV at all except for the 8 weeks of the 4 majors. I follow no other sports (except for the Olympics and then I watch individual sports when I’m around because what those athletes do is so inspiring). My “football” fanatic neighbors just don’t “get me” at all because I never watch team sports.<BR/><BR/>Eve – Thanks for thinking of me. I might have let the day pass without posting … but for the Blog 365 thing. LOL<BR/><BR/>Annie – I understand why the tournament officials decided to break the rule and start the match just before midnight for the spectators who had waited in the rain so long to see the match, but I suspect the players would have appreciated postponing the match until the next day. <BR/><BR/>I’m amazed at the many exciting 5-set matches with such dramatic swings in momentum. I don’t recall seeing so many on the main courts however in the past. Seems like these usually happen on the outer courts. I’m watching the Tsonga-Gasquet match as I type this … they’re just beginning the 4th set with Tsonga taking the 3rd in a tie-break putting him ahead 2 sets to 1 … so THIS could be another 5-set match!<BR/><BR/>The Sharapova-Diementia match wasn’t as compelling, so I managed to get my Sacred Life Sunday post up already here.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for visiting and leaving your comments. <BR/>Hugs and blessings,storytellerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14101550406171982090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5340188638004370422.post-12444485702302375912008-01-19T22:42:00.000-08:002008-01-19T22:42:00.000-08:00I didn't stay up to watch THAT match that's for su...I didn't stay up to watch THAT match that's for sure!!<BR/>But as usual, there was a replay of the last set in the morning.<BR/>Annie<BR/>xxxAnnie Zhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13511943107737624183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5340188638004370422.post-67523978346749506782008-01-19T20:13:00.000-08:002008-01-19T20:13:00.000-08:00I get a bit obsessive from time to time myself - p...I get a bit obsessive from time to time myself - probably more than 4 times per year. I'm glad to know it was only tennis taking up your time. When I didn't find a new post on either of your sites I was afraid you had become ill, like Sandy at Momisodes.Evehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11072209113562315120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5340188638004370422.post-65993690644148070412008-01-19T18:47:00.000-08:002008-01-19T18:47:00.000-08:00Wow! that sounds pretty exciting.
