I kind of like that one. Noting the day really enforces how important that event was for that (fictional) character. I view it as the boy having a strong bond with his dad, with them playing chess a few times each week.

Some of my best (and happy) memories include noting what day it was, the weather that day etc. Somehow it makes them stronger memories, and easier to picture in my head.
