I always wonder when I see a post like this in malkovich: 3 diagrams of variations for a move you didn't select, then one "I like this move" diagram with no variations. Did Kirby spend as much time thinking about the move he picked as the move he rejected?
In my own over-the-board play, I've noticed I will sometimes spend some time reading at a point, decide it doesn't work, then just play somewhere else without really studying it because of frustration or fatigue or "oh this looks good I'll try it". I wonder if this could be something similar.
I'll talk a little bit more about the move that I selected. I think that it is a simple response to his move, which guarantees that I do not have to worry about life in this area. The only white response that I have to even really think about is this one:

May I ask why here instead of the obvious D18? Am I missing some severe threat? All I see is B18 (possibly after D19) but I have a hard time convincing myself that this move is necessary. Did you have a specific sequence you feared?
Someday I want to be strong enough to earn KGS[-].
