US Go Congress 2007
Well, there’s no chance I’m going to this year’s Go Congress. My sister is getting married in September and things are going to be busy (and expensive) all summer! I think Congress 2006 sounds like a beautiful location, but it’s just not going to be realistic for me.

However.
I’ve taken a small bet with my wife (and myself, I suppose) to get in shape by about this time next year. One of the important parts of getting in shape is a strong goal and excellent concentration and willpower. Luckily Go helps with that (and hopefully it will help my game improve too). I’ll be updating with my progress… currently at 0% (I’ve lost some weight, but I have a “starting” point of my scale that I’m a bit off from just yet).
But also,
I’m putting myself on a whole new “Shodan Challenge.” My goal for US Go Congress 2007 is to be well within the DAN rankings (AGA). I’m really not far off from Shodan now, and I can feel my reading getting steadily better. A part of my study includes at least 10 tsumego a day, and I’m also planning on playing through the complete kifu of Go Seigen (as soon as my Birthday copy arrives).
Big plans…
but you can’t stay in one place, you’re either going backward or going forward
