Spring Break!

So, our spring break starts next week, and at first glance it appears that Spider and I are doing the typical college thing since we’re hopping down to Tallahassee for a few days, but when you add on that we’re just going to be visiting a Florida State professor (his brother) and that sober literary discussions will likely be how most of our days are spent, then, it’s clear that we’re still weird outcasts.

As usual, I have the meager complaint that we might have spring break when it’s actually, ahem, spring, but I’m in need of a week off so I suppose I can’t complain. I think it’s the first spring break ever that I’ll actually be traveling somewhere so, again, even if it’s not exactly a typical trip, it’s still closer to a normal collegiate existence than I’m used to. Not that that’s a good thing either . . .

Anyway, being that it’s spring, Spider and I have been trying our hand at various sports, which, again seems typical, until you consider how inept the both of us are at sports, after which it just becomes funny. Imagine a tennis game in which we both double fault for the entire first sets, complete with me knocking the ball out of the court on my first serve and you’ll start to catch on to how these things go.

Now, this all becomes even more amusing when innocent bystanders challenge us to a game, but that’s another story . . .

have you tried imaginary tennis? imaginary racquet, imaginary ball. has the big advantage in that it can be played anywhere and less chance of embarrassing double faulting.
