US Open Labor Day Monday

I am post-dating this entry to 9/6/10 but writing it on 9/9/10.

I went to the US Open with my mom on Labor Day Monday September 6. We watched Monfils down Gasquet, Kinepri defeat Wickmayer and Soderling beat Montagne. All of them have since been eliminated from the US Open. I'm rooting for Nadal vs Federer with Nadal giving him a straight sets spanking! I can dream, can't I?

And around 5:43pm on Sunday Davey texted me a message "Email ya in a bit". It sounded light so it sounded like it would be a good email. And it was. He sent it around 6:30pm (the first time he sent an email in the 6 o'clock hour). It was saying I hope you had "a good weekend even though we didn't get together. Next weekend is a definite possibility."

Rafael Nadal won his quarterfinal match against Fernando Gonzalez 7-6, 7-6, 6-0. He's on to the semifinals to face Juan Martin del Potro. If he wins, I promised to get my doggie a dog bed. My mom will buy a dog bed for Paddy if Roger Federer wins. I don't like Roger that much. Ever since he cried at the Australian Open earlier this year.

Now it's another rain delay.

I need to run 12 miles, but I am thinking of running 6 miles first then resting a day and then running 12 miles. Don't want to jump into running 12 miles and reinjuring my knee. I wonder if Marty will run on Wednesday.
