Husband has already demanded to see the Bobby Fisher movie and since he doesn't make those demands often, yes of course we're going and we're doing the full date night.
I've already seen some previews and I know going to be disappointed in their choice for Boris Spassky. He came to Dallas when I was still playing chess, just about the time Rich and I got married. The board of the Dallas Chess club hosted him. He stayed with another couple whom I dearly miss.
Man, he was the most fun and was just the nicest guy. Plus he was gorgeous it. He loved it here because he could walk around the malls with us and no one knew who he was.
He irritated the heck out of the husband because he was kind enough to let me play as long as possible during the simultaneous. I think I was one of the last he beat, or pretty close but unlike Rich I play a safe game and don't take a lot of risks. He also complimented me on that.
Sometimes I miss playing but I love my dogs more. Even Rich doesn't play chess very often any more.
