Another letdown....



Current mood: meh.

The one bad thing about being invited to events like watching Safin and Nadal in the first row on centre court (which is what I did with Trish last night!!) is the letdown you experience when your tennis crush loses. And in an unsportmanlike way. Really, Safin, so much potential but you are too distracted and get pissed off too easily. And I say this out of love. The rest of the audience actually BOOED you cause you were throwing rackets and hitting balls into the crowd.

Sigh.

Then Trish and I went to eat at Queue de Cheval, which I have heard many things about such as being owned by the mafia, being run by Hells Angels and being develishly expensive. The 3rd part is definitely true, but it was so worth it. We went in to sit down for a nice dinner (albeit small) and here was Roger friggin Federer sitting a few tables away!!! He was celebrating his birthday, or his win, whatever it was we couldn't believe it! I was too shy to approach him to ask for an autograph or picture, plus he was with his cronies and unaccessible, so we didn't. But dammit, now I wish I had.

Anyway, the other letdown (other than Safin being a poor sport and not approaching Federer) is that my life has returned to boring and normal today. I really could get used to that lifestyle - rich and famous people, eating out and having hoards of people want to come watch you do whatever you do. Tons of girls/guys throwing themselves at you, flying anywhere you want because you can afford it. I either have to think of a new life strategy to become rich and famous... or marry someone who is (which could arguably also be a strategy).

Anyone know anyone available? 24 year old cute consultant with desire for travel and possibility of being a... trophy wife ...worthy companion. Apply within.
