Talk About Tennis 2.0

There is a FIFA CLUB Word Cup in the US this summer (a recent competition that brings top global football clubs together). TIckets are not sold out, I saw the official ticket prices for matches in LA were lowered to about $30 because there are so few takers for teams from Latin America. Mexico is so close and no one from there wants to travel up even to see Mexican clubs compete on a world stage (and Mexican nationals and Mexican Americans living in Cali might be scared to attend as well).

Just wrapped my 10th year at this school, off until September!

Couldn't resist.

Today was an adventure in urban living for me.

So last night I'm watching this really good Chinese drama and the red flag male lead was about to try once again to kill the female lead and all the lights went out. Flipped the circuit breakers and nada. No one on the night shift had a clue. And it was only my building. And not the whole building.
So spending a night and a day feeling as if someone was hitting me in the face with a wet mop - I don't handle heat and humidity well - 16 hours later power was restored by some jury rigged method I hope holds until the permanent fix is in place.

Ya gotta stay on your toes when living in the city. And I wouldn't have it any other way.

Uhm... in the country, you could have gone out and watch the sky
Best of luck with the heat.
