lock your elbows when firing a pistol so you don't get a gun to the forehead...always lead the bird...;-)

I have no idea what that means, but I'll ask for a lesson.
It pertains to shooting trap or skeet which are sometimes called clay pigeons, you shoot in lead (before) the target.
:angry: Snakebit. The gun range was closed, and Mr. Nofunn decided to grade papers tonight instead. I couldn't make this up if I tried--I seriously was not quite as interesting as work that didn't need to be done until Tuesday. I hope he's thanking whatever god he has that I DON'T know how to use a gun right now. I painted my toenails for this.
I went to my school's football game and ran into one of my students who lives a few miles from me. His parents regularly invite the faculty out to their farm to shoot. In addition to what Mr. Nofunn offered me, they have 50-caliber machine guns, M-20s, a tank (yes, a tank,) and they make their own dynamite. Their gun room (which is the size of most folks' living rooms) requires a handprint passkey to get in, and if the alarm goes off the local SWAT team gets a direct alert. My student's dad invited me to come next weekend. I don't know if I'll invite my new "friend" or not.
Seagrovegirl, that siggy you borrowed has been on my mind a lot today!

I may need to use this as a siggy line.
I was going to take the toenail polish off in a gesture of defeat, but have decided against it.
Now I know what my horoscope for this week was talking about:
Now I have to work on the unique, brilliant, and constructive part.
Fortunately I have wonderful friends who let me vent when I need to and encourage me to laugh at myself instead of falling apart. Life is much more funn that way.
This is the first night in almost 3 weeks I've been home before 10. Going to SLEEP. Thanks for the love--I've missed y'all lately!
