All of me hurts. My coach has no mercy. Tennis balls weren't painful enough for his ideas of motivation, so he's started hurtling cricket balls at me when I'm not performing to his standard. I've broken three headbands in the past week trying to dodge them and keep playing the game. Nike needs to make better quality headbands.

I don't want to play tennis anymore today. The world is ending. Yet the sky is not falling and to my knowledge,pigs are not flying. I thought the world's end would be more dramatic.

Someone talk to me about stuff that isn't tennis.

There's a Tamaki Shindo exhibition at Art Unlimited that I was eyeing. You know, since I live now in Tokyo and stuff.

Also, do you think free VIP tickets for Rikkai to the show would be a too conspicious way to gain the favors of my new in-laws? :D

Bribery will get you many places ;)

But I don't think you really need it. You have my support and I'm sure you have Genichirou's support and I'm sure the rest of Rikkai will like you.

I'm not turning down those tickets, though.

[haratetsu]

I thought it might. :)

Thanks! And thank you for taking the kid for the while. You helped to prevent a mental breakdown, or two.

[tennis_no_ko]

It usually does, which is unfortunate in some cases.

And ha, not a trouble. I sort of know how to deal with children, so it's not dreadful.

[haratetsu]

Oh tell me. Entertainement is full of it.

You lucky, lucky person. I don't suppose you could show us how to change a diaper? I mean we googled something and I called my Dad like a dozen of times yesterday and I think we got it finally, but can't really tell, yanno.

Everywhere where money is involved is full of it.

It's not really lucky, dealing with kids requires an immense amount of patience (which you and Bunta will need in abundance). I just had a lot of children swarming my hospital room...and me in general life, I suppose. Kids like me. I'm still not sure whether I like kids. But I'll happily oversee your nappy-changing technique.

[haratetsu]

True that.

Well, it's certainely a handy skill to have. You know. Just in case someone drops a kid off at your place...

Change of topic, because this is getting awkward even for my standards :D I bet you look adorable with kids around you.

[tennis_no_ko]

Indeed. If anything, the patience comes in handy.

:D Supposedly, I do look quite good. I wouldn't know, though, I've only seen some pictures.
