Saturday night I went to a back to school party dressed as Barbarella<\/a> the crossing guard. Wearing a zippered fetish dress that barely covered my butt and day glo green fishnet hose and boots, I realized that the gas tank was on empty and I hoped that the gas station was empty too so that I could get out of the car without attracting too much attention. Problem is that I stayed out late and got up late so my sleeping patterns are off and I had no rhythm today. When that happens, going for winners is like entering the lottery with hopes of winning. After seeing enough balls go long or dribble into the net, I switched to hitting the ball to the center of the court as deep as possible. It kept me in the match but, unfortunately, my opponent also hits good groundstrokes.<\/p>\n

Practice and Competition Report<\/em>: practiced<\/a> for 45 minutes, played three sets with M.: 3-6, 3-6, 2-6
\nSolutions Analysis<\/em>:
\n1. I was upset with the scoring at one point and lost my service at love to lose the set. That’s a good time to develop short term memory loss and concentrate on the job at hand.
\n2. good footwork on the approach shot<\/a> makes all the difference. I need to be in position just like any other groundstroke and step into the ball with a good follow through before moving closer to the net.
\nSuccess Analysis<\/em>:
\n1. I served<\/a> an ace to the forehand.
\n2. I hit some good overheads<\/a>.
\n3. I was able to hit my topspin serve<\/a> successfully after losing rhythm on my harder serve.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
