Last night I went to bed at 10:20, don’t remember getting up
during the night and woke up refreshed at 6:30.
It’s raining lightly. The high
temperatures are supposed to be 78-82 degrees with a 60% chance of showers. I decided to wear jeans and shoes today.
It was 12 weeks ago today I ordered Chess Strategy for the Tournament Player - Monday, June 17th.
Breakfast was at Bunuelo Express while I read about
yesterday’s Chicago Bears 24-21 victory.
At Exito I bought peaches, pancake mix, gum, and 2 more containers of
Nestle’s Lechera for a total of 17,610.
On the way back I talked to Jhon for about 30 minutes at his
office. He felt bad when I told him
about Angel. Jhon told me Augusto called and left his telephone number to call him whenever I wanted to play chess. I called him and we have a date to play chess
on Friday at 4pm at Laureles Mall.
Bob sent me an email about a Champs Sports Bar in Belen – a
barrio just south of Laureles. I found
their telephone number but when I clicked on a link which was supposed to take
to a map of their location it said it had been removed so I don’t know if they
are still open or not.
I started my RS lessons – the first was a quick 5 minute
review of an earlier lesson but the 2nd was estimated to be 30
minutes long. After about 15 minutes I
got tired and took a nap and didn’t wake up until almost 1:30. Uh-oh, now I’ll probably have trouble getting
to sleep tonight.
Still in my jeans and shoes I headed to LM and had the
FrisBurrito at Frisby.
About an hour later, Dario showed up and we started a game
where I had black. Playing the black
pieces I got up a pawn and also had 2 connected pawns on the 6th
& 7th rank, one of which was a passed pawn. But I made a mistake and my game deteriorated
into a loss. I was surprised he wanted
to play a second game and with white he again allowed me to play the fried
liver attack where his king becomes very exposed. But I was down a knight to a pawn and he
seemed to be able to hold his position but he eventually made a mistake where
either he would lose his queen or his king (the game) so he resigned.
I then met Bob at the bar on Avenida 80 by the overpass and
we chatted for about an hour. He flirts
with a lot of the middle aged women but isn’t sure if he wants to start
something.
I left about 6pm because Beatriz is supposed to come over
tonight. Beatriz arrived about 7:30 and
left about 9:15. I figured I’d missed
the first 20 minutes of Under the Dome
but it had apparently been delayed so I ended up seeing the whole thing.
