- I spent the day taking Girlie Bear to the state high school air rifle match over in Henderson.
- She is one of three girls on a nine person team for her school.
- I had never seen the preparation that goes into a formal match before this morning. It was interesting.
- I love to shoot, but watching other people shoot isn’t nearly as much fun.
- Plus, you have to be quiet for almost 90 minutes during the match.
- I’m glad I took a book.
- After seeing how much Girlie Bear liked shooting a precision air rifle at the match, I thought I’d look into getting her one for Christmas.
- Holy !#$!@!, are you kidding me?
- I don’t own any guns that cost that much, and I have a job!
- Heck, the first two or three cars I owned didn’t cost that much!
- She’s going to have to be happy with the official Red Ryder carbine action range model air rifle I got for her and Little Bear years ago.
- I was careful to stay away from the young man who Girlie Bear has asked to the JROTC formal. I’ve been advised to not scare him away.
- Although sitting directly behind him throughout the match and staring a hole in the back of his head would have been fun.
- I noticed that security around the school that hosted the match was quite tight. I counted no fewer than 6 uniformed sheriffs deputies either guarding unlocked entrances or roving about the halls.
- I guess someone was worried about copycats.
- I may not be the Real Slim Shady, but I am the Real Fat Pasty.
- I think I messed up when I didn’t have my coffee this morning. By the time we started the 2 hour drive home, I was whipped.
- Dinner tonight was a cookout in the fireplace. Irish Woman did it as a treat for Boo.
- Dessert was ‘smores in the fireplace.
- My house smells like a cross between a barbecue grill and a sugar factory.
- I had to caution Girlie Bear to not let her marshmallow catch fire. I didn’t want to have to explain that to the insurance agent.
