largely irrelevant but massively awesome

maybe two of you care, but nobody is awake so I'm posting. oh god, Laura Robson. LAURA ROBSON. you make everything 200% more awesome. Great Britain moves into the final with another fabulous mixed doubles win, and for the record? these two should play Wimbledon. England might actually explode from the excitement.

(ok, so they're going to get their asses handed to them in the final when they have to play actual doubles players, but still. holy god Laura Robson is actualfax making Andy Murray awesome by sheer force of personality.)

this is basically a dream final, no lie.

it is. although i did have a moment today where i wished they had dima playing for russia. but then that final kind of surpasses everything.

well, I mean, as much of a dream final as possible given the teams who played. I still can't believe there was no Team Serbia. Nole + JJ = fabulous show, for always. and Team Safin is the team of my heart. =D

yeah, exactly. ughh i still can't believe i won't ever see marat playing again! it's kind of depressing when you think about it. all the players i've grown up loving will start retiring in the next few years D:

aww, there will be new players to love, I promise! actually at this point there are too many players to love, I feel conflicted.

haha i know. i'll always have to have someone to follow and adore. idk, it's just i tend to get ridiculously attached to the ones i grow up with. it's the same with football, and arsenal; i love the current team to deth, but the one i grew up with will always be just that little bit more special, you know? lol idk, i'll shut up now.

no, I mean, when Rafa retires I will probably be utterly heartbroken, I understand. first love and all that. =)

exactly, same with me for roger. but you're right, i mean, i'm not depressed about arsenal being a different team. i just look back on the old one really, really fondly. so it's all good :D
