Had a little bit of brain lock today while working. It happens to me when I try and work on two things at once. I hate that. The best way for me to get out of it is to take a short break and go back to work once I stop trying to solve both problems at the same time.
So, I took a 15 minute break and hit the range today around the time most folks would be eating lunch.
So, as a law-abiding gun owner I unlocked my gun room, unlocked the safe, removed a pistol, verified that it was unloaded, wiped up a little extra oil that I found on it, verified that it was unloaded again, cased it up, placed it in my vehicle in an area where I could not reach it while driving as per Michigan law, drove to the range, shot for about 10 minutes, and reversed the whole process when I got home.
You didn’t have a pistol within reach while working? What if Mutant Zombie Bikers broke in intent on having their way with you?
When I’m working from home I have one within reach. Just a little Kel-Tec .380 handy if somebody crawls up the driveway while I’m home. No matter what I’m dressed in I can clip it to my belt when I answer the door.
