Ben Wade Chesham loaded with Cornell & Diehl's Bayou Night. And I just had another match-related mishap with these dang inferior Diamond brand matches. I just can't find Ohio Blue Tips anywhere anymore. At least I didn't actually burn myself this time.
Today was spent mostly recovering from the past week--sleeping and doing nothing so the hamstring in my right leg could recover from a bad pull I did on Monday while trying to scale a fence. I sleep quite well to Star Trek marathons on G4.
I have to say that G4's new Star Trek 2.0 gimmick is at least a little interesting. A question posed today was: Who catches your eye, Ensign Rand or Uhura? I would have to say both. I am one of those semi-deviants who is still steamed that the green-skinned Orion s*x slaves never turned up on TNG. I bet one of them could have given that snot-nosed Wesley Crusher a new outlook on life, I tell you what.
The kids and I went to a local used book store this morning and I discovered that someone recently got rid of a lot of Terry Pratchett books. I picked up two today and will go back Monday for the rest. They will fill out my Discworld collection quite nicely. I was also looking for Tony Hillerman, but they didn't seem to have any of his. They did have quite a few books of Ed McBain. The kids also got a couple of books.
Anyway, I spent a great deal of my awake time today researching and writing up a new article for the blog. I guess real gun writers who actually get paid to do this kind of thing have plenty of time since they make their living from it, but it took me most of today and some of last night to complete it. I think it will probably be my best article for the month of May, as far as traffic goes. I like to try and come up with something good once per month, and I'm already wondering what I'm going to do for June. I'll probably post it mid-week, so I can submit it to the Carnival of Cordite.
