Yes - that was totally NOT an apology. Why bother?
V. sad about Jim Carroll.
And I'm glad that the women's final has finally started.
Captain was looking for a pilot. I found a husband. Seemed to work out.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I have NO FUCKING CLUE why I look so cranky.
Heh. You really do look cranky!
Ya freak.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I know my mouth turns down naturally, so if I'm not actively smiling, I often look unhappy. Meh.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
And I can get that -- being upset in the heat of the moment and then burning out quickly.
I still hope she's convincingly regretful about it. I also hope the lineswoman realises she made a bogus call, so I live in the land of wishful thinking.
Not sure why Wozniacki's energy doesn't rub me the wrong way like Oudin. Probably because she gets less press, so I don't have to listen to her say nothing as much.
Vaguely relatedly, you know who's not playing? Justine Henin. They can stop mentioning her any time now. Sheesh.
She said, "You don't like me, do you?"
The key here is to say "Actually, it's the opposite, but these feelings are forbidden so I must hide them."

They played Star Wars music at the end of that men's match. Perhaps the Imperial March --I'm not sure. He wasn't even dressed like Darth Federer tonight. Lots of credence to give a nickname.

It sounds a lot like a form of Tourette's.
