Well after my sweet old tennis racket went and broke in half (randomly) I resorted to using a Wilson N5 that we normally have for guests to use. Try as I might, I couldn’t adapt to its style of play. Nothing worked, and I’d miss normal shots again and again. Finally, I gave up and decided to get a new racket. I play tennis much too often to suffer through using something that is horribly uncomfortable to me. Plus I nearly sprained my wrist using the N5 since it’s much heavier than rackets I’m used to.

Today I picked up a shiny new Wilson K-fierce FX from my local tennis shop. I’m excited, because of all the rackets I demoed this one just felt right. I’m anxious to get to the court and try it out, considering for the past week I’ve been using Q’s racket instead, and it is also very unsuited to my style of playing. (It was still better than that blasted N5, though.)

And of course, it is now raining. Sunny all day, picked up my racket, now pouring rain.

Of course.
