For my cousin Cat and all of you, and thank you for your emails, who love the Rafa posts and photos...

Check out Rafael Nadal with his longtime gf “Xisca” at the Juntos Por La Integracion charity gala organised by his foundation in Barcelona last night. I love her. She is SO cute. Sometimes I worry though that they’re too young to have been together for so long. I also worry a lot about how... fragile he can seem sometimes. Like, when he looks desperately at his box, and he’s getting better at this now, I want for him to start becoming more independent. Yes, I can totally psychologise him just because I watch him on tv.

Here’s to a healthy 2012. And a lot of great matches.
