I am $20 or so short from going but maybe next year.
Who were you going with Justin?

I am going with my mom. We have the hotel reservations and everything but only have 5/8 of the entree fee or something.

So you still going? At least play in the speed chess tournament, and come up for the pure enjoyment of it.

Well, we came up only to win the main tournaments prize money considering we are in debt a bit and the prize money would fix all the problems of mine. That is why I am going. I have the requested 4 days off but no entree fee means no go. I have a job but my pay day is at 4:00 Friday and we leave Thursday.
7 days and counting...Im feeling like a kid at Christmas right now. You still going to the speed chess tournament Erik? Im going to be defending my under 1600 title baby!
