shoot!

Today was a hard day! I don't know why I scheduled myself to work so much during FINALS WEEK, and so close to graduation, AND Mr. T and I will be leaving for California literally hours after I graduate. Hmm. Finals, WORK, packing, prep for graduation... what am I to do? (It's my own fault, really. I like things frantic.) Oh, and I wanted to get a little color before the California sun touches my skin, so I decided to hit up the tanning salon.

BIG MISTAKE. I am REDDER THAN RED. EVERYWHERE is red except of course, my arms and legs. What's up with that?! Next time, I'm wearing a swimsuit. No use being tan where the sun don't shine, and isn't supposed to shine!!!

Ok, point is that Mr. T took me to the shooting range today. He has a total of 5 guns now. A shotgun, a rifle, and 3 handguns. (Don't ask me the specifics, I am completely clueless.) All I know is that I am a pretty good shot and look totally Bad "A" when I'm shooting. I even held it sideways like a mobster, bustin a cap. Yeah, I act cool, but I'm really not! I was seriously afraid of the big guns. I even squealed. Yes, I was that wimpy girl that screamed when I shot a gun. Give me a break. It was only my second time even HOLDING a gun. Mr. T says I'll get better with time. One of his semi-automatic guns was really fun to play with. I was shootin like I was a Bad "A" and I actually got in trouble! The manager guy told me I could hold the gun whichever way I wanted, as long as it was pointing straight (which it wasn't) and actually aimed at my target (which it wasn't). He was trying to be nice, but basically he meant, "You're shooting at the ceiling, and you should probably hold that gun with two hands, sweetie."

Oh well! It was fun, and a major stress relief. Nothin better than aiming for a target and getting a bulls-eye. Too bad I was off the mark by a long shot! I'll know what that's like..... someday. :)
