Cedardale Tennis Bash 2009

Cedardale is hosting an end-of-the-season tennis party on May 14th at 6:30 in our honor (OK, they had to invite all the other men's and women's teams too; clearly, some people are prone to tantrum throwing!). Come enjoy food, awards, and, if nothing else, raise a glass to the tennis goddesses for getting women out of these ridiculous outfits!

Adam has reserved a limited number of courts between 5:30 and 7:00, so give the tennis desk a jingle if you want to play.

I remain convinced that...

Kool and the Gang cannot possibly know anything about ladies or ladies night. As a member of the sisterhood I continue to be amazed at the sheer scope of what I learn from other women, often in a very short period of time. Our collective wisdom astounds. Yes, we knocked back drinks and ordered some terrific tapas (Betsey!), but we also learned that buying a jukebox will set you back $1500 (Cap'n!!) and if you happen to need someone to refurbish one in the state of Massachusetts Kristine may know someone. Huh?? Cynthia offered testimonial as to the nature of her tennis elbow injury per her orthopedist. And, NO, she cannot sub yet!

We learned that one of us (Shawn!!) is licensed to operate an old fashioned elevator, while others have some reeeeallly complicated genealogy (Julie, Barbara!!). Also, who knew that Jeannie could rip a great Will Farrell impression? Of course, we discussed club policies and politics, school issues, and varying forms of institutional harassment. And world peace.

After several drinks we also concluded that the top button on your jeans is seldom your friend. And we finally got to the bottom of the court incontinence "situation" and determined that Kristine was, in fact, sensitive to her partner. So, if you happen to see a coupon for Depends inside your Sunday ads and flyers, be sure to clip it out and pass it discretely to Jeannie. Just let the record show that the women of Cedardale Green do not concern themselves with on-court or off-court trifles. Now, let's go get Middleton!!! ***Do remember your checkbook. Dorian tells me they have one fabulous proshop!! ; )

Crackberry Alert

Oh, yes it's ladies night...
Remember when Cap'n suggested that drinking the night before your match may serve to improve play? Or was it that you have a greater incentive to win in straight sets instead of dragging things out to three? Or maybe she said that if your opponent lands a tattoo, it doesn't seem to sting quite as much. Can you recall? Just to be sure, the Cedardale A-1 players and pros are going to be proactive and start TWO days before the match at the request of Julie, our resident Social Director. Come to George's on Washington Street in Haverhill this Wednesday at 7:00 and head for the jazz bar on the third floor for libations, conviviality, and otherwise inappropriate shenanigans and tomfoolery.
