Chess
Ok, so it seems my new “milo jumps on every bus that goes by” item is chess. I don’t remember who taught me to play chess, but I used to play some a bunch of years ago. I recently found out that facebook has a chess app. - and I’ve been hooked ever since. Back at the end of August I started playing again (only online now, I had never done that before). I’ve now played 65 matches thru facebook and 10 thru www.chess.com (which is the website that created the facebook app). You’d think after 75 matches I’d be pretty good, but sadly that isn’t exactly true - but who cares, I love playing.
Anyway, I’ve bought myself a travel chess set to play against buddies when I go over to thier houses and I’ve also bought myself a home set, it looks like this (photo not by me):
I just ordered them, so I probably won’t get them for a week or so. Wanna come over and play chess?

Welcome Facebook Fans :)
If you’re here for the first time cuz you saw the new page I created over on facebook … welcome! Please have a look around. I recommend the photo gallery for hours of pure enjoyment (let all the thumbnails load on a particular page before clicking on them, this is so the “black background image viewer” can load).
If you’re here cuz you always come here wondering if I’ve actually posted something. Well … you’re in luck … I’ve posted something.

Halloween
We went to the Novak’s for halloween. Bil and I took Sam and Willow out trick or treating while Pro, Abi, and Carrie passed out candy from the house. Nick, Kris, and Sean showed up a bit later.
