Well I woke up this morning pretty hungover, dreaming about stupid chess (legitimately
) so I decided to play a game:

It was probably my most fun game, even though I made quite a few really really bad mistakes. I know I missed at least 2 mates in one (lol at playing 26...Qb4+ after not playing 25...Qb4# wtf) and played my worst move of my life with 28...Rd2+. I was pretty preoccupied with his Qg7# and let it get to me. I only had 4 minutes left when I played 34...Re8 - I was sure I was going to run out of time. 30 0 and won with 6.9 seconds left lol.
A few things I noticed:
1. I'm terrible at finding the best move to move my king when he's in trouble. I played 28...Rd2 knowing I'd have to move my king, and after seeing the analysis the spot I picked (Kd8) was almost infinitely more awful than (Kf8).
2. I always appear to be a pawn down (white or black) like 7 moves in. Probably not good going forward.
3. I overvalue the check with no tactic or plan going forward.
Meh still fun times for my 10th or so game. Queen endgame was quick and painless.
