So I'm Not Much of a Tennis Fan...

But Isner/Mahut is now up to 61-61. Yeah, you read that right. This match is now on its third day. I somehow suspect neither of them will be good for much tennis for some weeks after this. But in the meantime, um, WOW.

ETA 66-67 now.

It's finally over. Isner won, 70-68. One suspects he won't last long in the second round, he probably can't feel his legs any more.

All Go 'splody

Saturday is the annual Balticon after-party/picnic, and Sunday is Alphabet Soup. I haven't cooked for Soup yet, and my banana bread is very much in demand at the Balticon shindig, so a couple weeks back I bought a half dozen bananas and set them out to ripen. They need to be brown for banana bread.

Well, Mom decided they were TOO brown and put them in the fridge. On the edge. Balanced against the door. Yeah, you know what happened. Or maybe not. Did you know that ripe bananas explode when they hit the floor? The kitchen was a mashed banana party. The good thing about having dogs is they'll happily help clean up the floor. But there's no way I can get ripe bananas in the next two days, so I have to figure out something else to make in a hurry.

(Come to think of it, given the present hot and humid weather...and banana bread requiring the oven...maybe my mother actually had a plan when she put the bananas on the edge...)
