So I'm slow and didn't realize that Thursday May 29th is the night I fly out to Dallas to crash Tiff's house for a few days and then as the penny dropped, I freaked out wondering if we're going to make it home from the airport in time to watch LOST. Clearly, there is something terribly wrong with me. El TiVo will help us catch up anyway so it's not ( Read more... )

Look up your community college and see if you can register for a Firearms class. Lots of fun to be had AND it's useful.

Well I'm moving to Florida next month and I'm told I should have a hobby outside of PA school (since it's so crazy and insanely hard). So I may look up some classes down there! If they arent too far, then I'm in!!

Ahahaha, burning shell casings down cleavage does NOT sound like a pleasant thing. But I'm impressed! You can save us all from any crazy attacks, now.

I love guns, which I know sounds creepy, but I think you understand what I mean, lol. I've always wanted to shoot handguns, but I've really only shot rifles a couple of times, and even then I was acting like a redneck in my dad's backyard shooting at pears. I missed.

I just watch too much TV and I've always wanted to shoot cool black handguns at those people-shaped targets.

It's not creepy. I've learned to respect guns a great deal. It's humbling and a great experience. Plus, while I don't plan on actually carrying one, at least not for now, I think every girl and woman on the planet should know how to use one. You just never know.

LOL at your redneck tendencies. Pears? Wow, that's ambitious cause they're... small. We do use people-shaped targets and mine is always my boss in my mind's eye. I have my very first one up on my wall.

*hug* Good to hear from you.

I've never been very good with shotguns. For some reason I need my shoulders free and the firearm all controlled between my hands/fingers. I've always been a fan of semi-automatics, Beretta really makes me happy (give me M9, and I'll be a happy girl)

Big guns make me happy

We should read between lines? ;)

No between the lines there, it's just true.

I've never shot an M9, we only use standard law enforcement guns and I don't know if cops use that here (the FBI probably does). I like the shotgun. It kills my shoulder but it's FUN.

Shooting sounds like so much fun. I'm so jealous. Do you ever picture someone you'd like to have in front of the barrel or are you too focused on all the technical details? :-P I always thought it'd be kinda therepeutic.

I am so sorry I have been a bad friend but I have been going through a rough period lately. I think I really need to get off my a** and do something myself. Shoot, punch, kick, scream, whatever, because I feel totally zombified and I can't break out of it even though I know there is so much going on beneath. It's weird. I've never had this much trouble in letting my emotions out or mustering interest in things around me. Anyway, hope you know that I'm still here.

/end pointless rant

By the way its totally awesome that you will be visiting Tiff. Have a good trip!

*hug* Have you been sensing my Jewish Mother telepathic rays of worry sent your way? Cause I've really been thinking about you this past week or so. Like I said... I'm practically a Jewish Mom.

You're not a bad friend, don't be silly. I'm so sorry, but I can assure you a lot of us can relate to being zombified. I was like that for some six months of my life day and night and it took me another four years until I wrote an entry here on LJ to realize that I was healed. Forever. I have good friends who listened and I want you to know my offer still stands. If you don't want to post where more people can see it, just email me if you want to talk, OK?

Thanks for checking in and making your Jewish Momma (except I'm not Jewish or very maternal in nature) happy. :-*

I *heart* you. Truly. Thanks for the offer and I will take you up on it sometime, or even unload on LJ if I can find the courage. Just a few more weeks of term to go and then I can start attending to my messed up psyche, hehe.

Ok, random question, but are you really small or was your instructor just very tall? Just curious!

Only a Lost fan would use the words "fly out" and "crash" in such close proximity in a single sentence and be happy about it! ;)

Yes, but... I'm not going to see it live!!!! It takes an hour to get to Tiff's home from the airport and they get it at 8 o'clock for some reason. GAH!

DREADFUL! Talk to Chrissy at Oceanie about it, tell her Jack sent you. I'm sure she'll find a way to smooth things over for you. ;)
