Chess, travels and such

I was tinkering with MiniMac last night. Trying to play some video files anyway, but that didn't happen. Somehow, I ended up playing Chess. I use to play quite a bit of chess in my teens. Think I was well, not that good, but slightly above average. I have however, lost touch over the years.
The past few times when I played, I lost miserably.

Yesterday, was ME vs Computer.
I spent hours playing. Up to 5 games, but sadly, I lost each time.
You might say that its very difficult to win the computer, but I've done it before. Although only once, but hey, I believe its still possible!!

To be confused about being confused. It happens. I have been through that before. Its just this uneasy feeling, this restlessness which overtakes you. Nothing feels right and yet you just can't place your finger on it. And sometimes, you wonder if its all just a figment of your imagination or perhaps, some attempt to draw your attention to your inner self.

Travelling is good. I love the feeling of anoynomity which follows. No one knows who you are, there are no expectations and no preconceived notions of what you could do.

You make friends. But these are just passing friends. Sometimes the friendship can be quite deep so I am reluctant to call them acquaintance. During the stay in the hostel or travel, these friends are your buddies. THey look after you, watch out for you. Some time later, we go our own ways and somehow, the "keep in touch" thing never stays

I awoke this morning feeling thin. What kind of feeling is that??!!
