Yay! We should play on chess.com whilst Skyping as well. Live games are fun.

Haha, alright! It's definitely still odd to be in this time zone. It's funny that we're so close now.
Qh5 seems to violate a fundamental principle of the opening to not move your queen early, but it's actually quite a decent move because my only replies force me to block in my pieces or my c pawn.

I cant resist that move Haha, I knew right away you'd play it. Oh well, it's fun anyways, haha! And that's what we're playing for. I think both our pawn structures are garbage at this point, ahaha! My 2nd move should have been Nc6 instead. Correction: Nah, your pawn structure is fine.

See you tomorrow!
I'm relieving my queen of babysitting duties by trading that weak knight. And I think I'll be able to deal with scholar's mate threats later.
I'd still rather be white right now, though.

A good move. It's pretty much over for me. I've been regretting my 2nd move the whole time.

Looks like the break did me good, I had convince myself I could never beat you. Usually you play pawn to queen when I bring my queen out I think.

Also the old me would have just taken your castle, you have brought this on yourself by teaching me about pins!

Nah, I'm sure you can beat me. Your Wayward Queen Attack (the actual name @ wikipedia ) threw me off quite a bit. ;D I'm not too far behind though, come to think of it. Only by 2 points. Plus you can't castle. You've always been really good when it comes to pins, I think. That's where most of your tactics have been. Have you tried that ideachess.com website for tactics? It's really addicting.

I quit my job at that school because I had to write 20 pages of lesson plans per night. I had 5 hours to sleep and to do essential stuff like getting groceries. Plus they didn't train me on the British curriculum at all. I'm currently looking for another job in my area. I'm also looking for a chess club to join. Playing ideachess.com tactics is probably the #1 fastest way to improve. And you can see your chess rating going up as you get better.
