So my parents went back to Wales this weekend for a wedding, and were calling at the house this morning to pick up post. In addition to a DVD from play.com I'd been wondering about (I really must change that address -_-), I also had my Wimbledon ballot letter. And I have two tickets! For Centre Court!

For the first Monday.

Any other year, this would've been a cause for celebration. I'd be running up and down the stairs shrieking with joy right now. This year, I'm wondering if I should bother, and not because I shouldn't be spending the money before Oz either.

Maybe I can smuggle some rotton fruit in. It'd be worth getting kicked out of Wimbledon for the moment of sheer satisfaction.

Edit: I TAKE IT ALL BACK, MY PARENTS JUST CALLED BACK TO SAY ACTUALLY, IT'S MONDAY *29TH*.

I apologise for contemplating throwing rotton fruit at Rafael Nadal. Really. Genuinely. From the bottom of my heart.

...Not really.

The downside is that the tickets for the second Monday are almost double the price of the first. :-/ Can I really afford that right now?

*giggles* I was mortified when my parents said the 22nd because I didn't think I'd be able to sit there and not hiss when he walked on court. ;) Which is terrible Wimbledon manners! I promise to leave him alone. We should hopefully get Roger on the second Monday though *touch wood*.

Yaaaaaaay!! :DDD *glomps you* Every time I start freaking out about the long flight and being by myself on the other side of the world, I keep remembering I'm not by myself and there're all these lovely people I've known for years waiting for me. That is so, so awesome. :D I'll try to get my itinerary sketched out by next week so I can let you know. Tell your parents they're lovely and I can't wait to fangirl Fed with them. :DD

WIMBLEDON! SO! EXCITING! SECOND MONDAY IS AWESOME!

Also, the possiblility of Top Gear and ridiculous squeeage over random things! And maybe Queer as Folk too and you have to bring all of the photos from your trip which I am extremely envious of. (As a sidenote, did you know that the TG waiting list is over 18 years? o_O)
