Any recommendations on picking up chess semi-seriously for the standard person who knows the basics but hasn't played since high school study hall and never really put much effort into true strategic chess thinking?

I've been really getting into learning some magic tricks lately and I'm loving it. Not the corny, crap kind of tricks but some really good ones.

Also been trying to learn how to juggle.

I've played guitar for nearly 20 yrs and have been working on some things I hadn't been so proficient at. Mainly I've been focusing on old fingerstyle picking country blues/ blues and 'hillbilly' music. It's fun and challenging(some of those guys were damn good players), luckily I've found and have been playing alot with a guy who is really good and thats sped up my progress a bunch.

I've also been playing with the slide more. Over the years I'd slowly become somewhat competent with it, not really using it that much though. Lately, I've been playing with it more and I can already notice a big difference. That's also got me messing around with open tunings too, which are fun to play as well.

Always trying to improve my ear and songwriting too.

Carpentry, plumbing, electrical, and pretty much anything diy fix it up stuff.

Photography, woodcarving, and rug making/weaving (really don't know much about this one yet I am intrigued by the idea however).

I'm engaged in an ongoing project to upgrade my social skills. I'm not a poker shut-in or someone who has trouble making friends or anything, but I'm currently traveling a lot and often end up staying in places where I literally don't know a single person. I'm learning how to build a social network in a short amount of time just by chatting up random people. Anyone can go out and meet girls, but finding interesting guys to hang out with is much harder. Going out at night alone with the intention of making some friends really took me out of my comfort zone, but I've mostly gotten used to it and learned to enjoy it.

I'm learning to play my baritone ukulele because it isn't practical to travel with a full-sized guitar. The four strings are the same as a the four highest strings on a guitar so the learning curve isn't too steep.

I'm about to go to Thailand for four months and am learning a bit of Thai.
