It is a pity you don't and (for quite a long while) won't have time
for JSW and MM, Andrew. Could you not prioritise it over some of
your other interests, perhaps?

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!

Or, if not, could you not dream a MM dream every week? In five
months we would have a new MM game... :-)

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...
