Well, I think if you don't play chess for an extended period -like a year- you can get rusty. However if you just take a break like a week or a month, it "may" change your perspective on some positions and give you a fresh start.

it's best to try some simpler openings first, you'll just hang yourself with sicilians. - I started with kings indian attack for white, very easy to understand. as black, I played the french against 1.e5 and queen's indian defence against 1.d4. don't know if QID was really a good choice back then, but you don't get much 1.d4's anyway. against others I just winged it with basic opening principles, and it worked out okay.

starting out, you should find an opening that feels good to you, and stick to it. the simpler, the better, so you can use most of your time & energy to tactics and strategy.

Wanted to play c5 because i wanted to try something new. e5 is boring. The french D has its drawbacks that i dont like with the B traped, forcing to fienchetto it on the Qside, prefer Kside because castle that way. QID has a N problem being attack by pawn moves i believe, My friend play sicilian and thats the one i would know the best.

EDIT: By saying boring I mean stale and i have lost many games with e5. With the french, our club champ plays it, but I have no confidence to talk to him. And with the QID nobody plays it anymore, to complex and hard to play, I suppose

The Kings Indian is 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 g6 with Black following with ..d6 at some point (if he plays ..d5 instead it's a Gruenfeld Defence).
