Long over due updates

Obviously these updates are coming long over due.
First things first. I have discovered some things about myself that has allowed me to become a much happier person. It's a huge relief to be able to finally admit things about yourself and to be able to talk to someone. My passion for chess is back, and i am finally able to put the time and effort in to the great game of chess.

Sacramento Speed Chess Finals

Thankfully the Sacramento speed chess finals came to an end. Thankfuly you ask? Thankfully coming from a chess player? Well when you finish with 0 wins 0 draws, and 7 losses thankfully is an approriate word. True the competition was tough, and rating wise i was the second lowest rated player in the field, but i played just plain BAD.
Have you ever had one of those out of body experiences where you feel like youre outside of your body, and youre watching what youre doing but have no control over it? That was my chess last night. My hand was moving the pieces and im watching and wondering....why????

Oh well its over and time to let it go. Up next is the Sun Chess Club Silicon Valley Challenge #5 this Sunday. Photos will be provised as soon as i get batteries.
