I went to lunch with the tennis ladies today. We went to the Liberty Bar. The poor bus boy was trying to fix the wobbly table. Actually, it went with the whole place, because the Liberty Bar is in serious need of leveling (sp?). I literally get motion sickness when I go there. Reminds me of the house they have or had at Cascade Caverns where you are standing sideways, but you're actually standing straight (or vice-versa!)

Anyway only 5 of us made it, because Janice had a ligament problem, and Carol forgot about our lunch. Patty couldn't make it either. Diane is the organizer, she emails all of us about time and place. Actually none of us had anything alcoholic to drink, so we didn't get too crazy or loud. There's Denise, who plays tennis about 4 times a week, Jamie is a very good tennis player, there's myself, the weakest link, and Mari, she's from Spain, and she probably learned to play on clay courts. Diane is a very good player, and she's always calm and consistent. Always getting the ball back.

We talked about taking a trip to either Vegas or Spain (with Mari as tour guide). But I doubt we'll actually do it. It would be nice, though. Who knows, sometime in the future it could happen.

It was funny, we all ordered the same thing, salmon patties, everything was good, just not outstanding. I hope nobody noticed, but I put a lot of ketchup on my food. Fish and fries - that calls for ketchup. I don't know why, but I love ketchup. I know, it's not very sophisticated, but I can't help it.

Next time, it's Jamie's turn to pick a restaurant, and a date. It should be interesting.

I didn't watch the Spurs tonight, but I know they lost. Now I'm going to be hoping somebody beats Dallas. I know, I should be rooting for Dallas because we're in the same state, but San Antonians as a rule, have never felt close to Dallas, we're like siblings that were separated at birth. Houston is like the wild child, San Antonio is the serious, mature one, and Dallas is uppity.
At least San Antonio has culture!

  1. Actually, I didn't mention Austin. But Austin is in a zone completely unto itself. Like they say "Keep Austin Weird". Bumper sticker philosophy!
