    hey brian,
    good to have you back. we should definitely get together and play. coincidentally a friend of mine who plays recently moved to town so doubles should work perfectly. my knee has been giving me a little trouble lately but give me a call when your back is better and i should be good to go.

    hey brian,
    so my friend is unavailable today but we can probably make it work in a week or so. i was wondering if you'd want to try and play at the reed college courts today. i don't think it's much farther for you and it's close enough for me to bike. let me know.
