Hello again! It is good to be back writing but I must admit that I have begun to feel a considerable disconnect from the game at large. In the past, I have experienced similar feelings in relation to my desire to play the game but in this case, it is a case of the exact opposite. I want to be playing more and more than ever before but I have been unfortunately able to attend any events thus far. Watching Regionals go by every weekend has been difficult for me and while I am nothing short of ecstatic to see the top players remaining at the very top, I am still jealous than I could not be competing as well.

Though I was somewhat aware that this would be the case for me this season, it is my desire to be attending every Regional Championship from here on out. San Jose is likely to be a toss up given that it falls (pun) on Thanksgiving Weekend, but I will be at Memphis and Dallas and then hopefully almost everything in 2018! The International events will likely be suspect in terms of being able to attend and I will definitely not be in London (sadly) but I hope to swing one of the two between Austrailia and Brazil. Starting a new job and moving to a new city has been rewarding in its own rights but you’ve gotta know that I’m itching to compete.
