Unfortunately the situation is now three times worse than it was in May (Message 6657), as I went into the French Open 2010 already with a significant backlog of tennis-reports, and came out of Wimbledon with a backlog that could well take me more than a year to clear, with Vera Zvonarëva being a member of my Eternal Fanship and having reached Wimbledon finals in both singles and doubles.

Whether I'll have time for MM/JSW in the coming year depends primarily on how well things go in my professional life. The worse they go, the faster I'll be able to clear my tennis-backlog, and the more likely it is that I'd have some time for MM/JSW before the French Open 2011.

I let real life suffer for my tennis-addiction. I cannot conscionably let it suffer for MM/JSW too. On the other hand, I do hope to emerge from the 2010s with some new MM/JSW games to show for them!

I only wish I could have dreams like that on demand! I did have one other great dream last week, but it was about tennis. I guess my next vivid MM/JSW dream is due on 3rd January 2022...
