Another stupendous loss, but i take moral courage that I lost rather creatively. Any
thoughts, offers of advice other than, your pants give it up would be appreciated.

Bg2 Bg7 5. Nd2 Bg4 {this move was intended simply to fish for some some weaknesses in whites camp, hoping for Nd2 or even better f3} 6. f3 {and here we have it, f3 and the beautiful g2 bishop becomes a huge pawn} Bd7 {look at my bishop in comparison, radiantly sending out death rays on both sides of the board} 7. f4 {this move permenantly weakens the e4 square and leaves white with some serious light squared colour complexes around his kingside.} Bf5 {e4 will, never ever ever ever ever ever, be played.} 8. Ngf3 Ng4 {again this is simply a threat, not a very real one, but it makes white think, he can simply parry it with Nb3} 9. Nb3 Nd7 10. Ne5 {Now i was faced with the problem of which piece to capture with. I have envisioned that me dark squared bishop will remain passive for some time, therfore i chose him. Even yet i am not sure if this was the right decision.} Bxe5 11. fxe5 e6 12. O-O {the black King just looks so vulnerable. I had resolved at this point to do everything i could ti open him up, primarily with ...h5 ...h5.} h5 {the start of my cunning plan!} 13. c3 h4 14. h3 {here i did not fear hxg4 sacrificing my knight as the queen and rook are coming to the open h file as a consequence.} hxg3 15. hxg4 Qh4 {and here i had a winning position, threatening mate on h2, but alas we are human and prone to aborration.} 16. Rxf5 Qh2+ 17. Kf1 gxf5 18. gxf5 exf5 {the losing move, the move that should have been played was a queen sac! ...Qh1!!, after which Bxh1 and ...Rxh1+ Kg2 and Rxd1 and we are in good shape} 19. Qf3 O-O-O 20. Qxf5 Rh5 21. Qf3 Rf8 22. e4 f5 23. exd5 f4 24. e6 Nb6 25. d6 c6 26. e7 Re8 27. Bxf4 Rf5 28. Qg4 Qh5 29. Bh3 Nd5 1-0
