leaving on a jet plane

February 27, 2008 at 7:39 am (chess, random crap)

my bags are packed and i’m ready to go….

last night i was a full piece up on tom right before he whittled me down to my resignation.  i am a master at losing while up on material.   good game tom.

so today i gotta go to work, then tomorrow, i wake up, drive to the airport, and fly to sturbridge, mass for the tournament.  i’m pretty damn excited.  i have my openings pretty much ready to go, i just hope i play good solid violent decisive chess.   i  hope if i’m a piece up, i win the damn game.

i won’t have a computer with me, so there will be no online, no checking emails, none of that.  i will have to wait until i get back to write and post my tournament report.  hopefully there will be cool pictures.

so this will be the last post until next week.  i’ll be back with a tournament report.  until then,

chess it up!!!!

    So we can spam comment your blog and it will take you a few extra days to deal with it. Cool.

    Second place isn’t too Shabby. Speaking of Shabby, I’ll have you know that after the last round, we sat in the winner’s circle with none other than GM-Shabolov himself… along with a 2nd place GM-SADVAKASOV and a few other master and IM’s kicking back after a tough weekend.

    I hope he posts the photos.
