I popped my Slam cherry and dispproved an age-old addage: Your first time doesn't have to suck.
- This post pretty much explains my USO experience.
- New York Magazine got us ready for some tennis.
- Things got creepy when I befriended a 16 year old. But whatever. She started it.
- I'd like to pretend I was Ana's good luck charm. Let's go with that.
- The best pictures I have ever taken.
- I now have a Serbian bestie.
- Ana and Novak. Being hot and adorable.
- Rafa and Sam!
- STUPID FENCE.
- The SamTracker 5000 is officially Slam tested, Sam-approved. I made up that last part.
- Dinara lost but at least Rausa got a nice tan.
- The Petko Dance. Hey Hey!
- Vika collapsed. Not good.
- We got called out by J-Mac. It was pretty awesome.
- Novak kept nailing his pressers.
- The hurricane never came. Which meant that I got to exchange words with Dragana. And I flipped out.
- Caro scored her biggest win. And then she ran into this.
- How this shot got no love in Tennis Channel's Shots of the Year blows my mind.
- Sam lost to the eventual champion. Again. I was left catatonic for a few days. Again.

- Um. Hi.
- Halpert and Sunshine flirted with flirting.
- That was a rough one for Venus.
- A couple of shirts. Yup.
- Nole pulled it off. And I cackled in the only way a tennis blogger can. Which was still not as awesome as this guy.
- Jada: Over it.
- The boys at Busted Raquet and I live-blogged the men's final.
- Boom. This headline sums up the year, I think.
- Squee! Sigh. Awwwwww....
- Don't worry. We won't.
- A final shoutout to all my new friends.
