...the two other great things happening:
The U.S. Open starts today! My love for this tournament makes no sense at all, but the very idea of it makes me smile. Tennis is a fun sport to watch. I'm always amazed by what it looks like to watch the players fight so fiercely--against each other and with themselves--up so close. You can almost read their minds, the cameras are so close to their eyes between some shots. It's intense. And there is part of me that has always felt like a bit of a Manhattanite, even though I have no viable claim whatsoever to the title :)
Donald Miller's next book, A Million Miles in a Thousand Years comes out any minute. I'm a fan of his, anyway, and this book looks especially good. He's writing about living a story, which is a really cool concept. I'm excited to see how he pulls it off. Here's a provocative interview between Don (I use his nickname, like we're close buddies...) and his publisher, if you want to check it out.

I'm so excited about Donald Miller's book. It comes out around my birthday, which I thought was very thoughtful of him and/or his publisher.
I'll tell my brother-in-law how much you like the camera angles, etc. He produces it for ESPN. I love the US Open too!
I have a soft spot for Wimbledon because it was on when Pokemon Boy was born. So I watched the Williams sisters during my 6 days in post-op with a wee lil' baby.
