Milestones reached in Operation Abe Lincoln: 3
Over the weekend, I organized some of my writing folders and files on my computer. It's a pain in the neck, but necessary. Being organized not only helps you find things more easily, but it saves you a lot of time and energy as well. I will continue to do it throughout the week in addition to working on my books.
I also played my friend Bruce in chess. He said he hadn't played in a while, but I've noticed that chess players who say things like that are usually really good, and I was barely able to beat him. He had my king cornered, but not in check, and I only managed to win by constantly checking his king with my knight, forcing him into a trap where I finished him off with my queen. In spite of my victory, he proved that he could very easily defeat me if I had so much as one slip-up, so I will keep studying and practicing techniques so that I stay sharp.
