I sent requests to both of your accounts.
I thought I did before, but the options & sub-pages seem more complicated than they need to be.

On a related topic, for info's sake, does anyone play Go?
I have a Go board at home, but no-one to play it with. I'd love to play online, but discovered Go after a time in my life when sitting down and dedicating 3 hours to playing a game with someone just wasn't reasonable. I should probably go out and find a place online where I can play a move every few days, as faetal suggested.
I spent quite a lot of time playing against AI for a while there, but of course it's not the same.

I sent a message on chess.com, but to repeat it here, I'm not going to get started on any games until after I get setup in Tokyo next week, since I have a feeling I may be completely out of touch for a few days.

I got your friend request and accepted it :)
Got three games on the go at the moment - will open one with you when one of those ends.

I looked over some of your games there, and I hope you guys won't mind a little advice. Don't make so many pawn moves in the opening, get your pieces developed quickly with an eye to controlling the center of the board, get your king to safety early(castle), and study basic tactics.
Couple of links you may find helpful. It's easy to get overloaded with info when starting out, but learning fundamental principles and tactics is probably the fastest, surest way to progress.
