I Actually Won a Game!

Unbelievable - I never thought I'd win a chess game again.

Crispin and I started two games.  One is still going on - this one he resigned from.  I had the black pieces:

I feel terrible for defeating Crispin. So much for having a competitive drive, heh?  Defeat someone you like and feel awful (except when it's Mr. Don, ha ha ha!)  Even worse, I've no idea if this game is any good or not.  I don't have a program that can analyze this game and show me better moves. 

Not to get too cocky, this is a game I resigned from yesterday.  I thought I was doing okay until - damn!

I was white in this game:

So, back to the drawing board.
