I've felt sooooo tired all day. Fortunately we own a little magic box that can keep you entertained for hours on end with an assortment of entertainment options. Because I'm sick, I take all the more pleasure in watching sports, I think it's that whole living vicariously thing. Moreover, sports, and especially tennis, are so psychological. I'm fascinated by how athletes respond to various situations, it's like watching a novel in fast forward. The pace at which events unfold is dizzying and mesmerizing, and I love how the outcome usually is tinged with a certain logic or fatalism.
If you ever get a chance or have the time, watch Federer play, totally worth it.

I've found tennis is one sport I don't mind watching on TV. If you want that vicarious feeling, try a video game version. I play Top Spin on the Xbox and it looks just like tennis - very entertaining and very couch-bound friendly.
That is a great idea, I need to get a video game system and whup up on some friends! Ahhh, that would be nice.
