The CZickness IX Intervention

I'm sure that when we are 82 ourselves, we'll agree with her. But for now, the party rages on...

That's better than a 24 year old friend who thinks the same thing.

I'm sure at some point I'll find it ridiculous, but that day is not today...

I can't even imagine finding it anything but great fun.

I need a break.

 

[Birds Away]

I need a break.

A vacation would be nice. But I only get one week a year and I have to save it for if I have another heart attack.

Be quick about it. We'll wait for you to come back, but please do remember to wash your hands afterwards.

One week would have been tough to live with in my old job. There were times when 5 days straight seemed excessive, but after 20 years doing pretty much the same thing, I was burned out. Hopefully the vacation situation improves for you BA.

 

[Birds Away]

We used to have three weeks a year. I really miss that.

I'll be taking a week off here the first week of the year. Then I get two weeks to take and then I retire from there.

 

[Birds Away]

I retired once. So far I haven't noticed much of a difference.

 

[88E30M50]

You retired guys need to get a dictionary and look up the word 'retirement'. I don't think you all have the concept down correctly.

Since I still seem to spend like I'm not retired I guess I still have to work like I'm not retired.

After all, you have a family to feed. Guns don't buy their own bullets and it's true that happiness is a warm gun.

 

[RustyHornet]

Retirement for me means no longer just riding along in comfort, no longer just taking the easy way out. Retirement means starting that hustle that is self employment, a dream that I've had for as far as I can remember. It will be hard, I will struggle, but it's something that I NEED to do. Not because I want to, but I need to prove it to myself that I can make it work.

Yeah, I have discovered that they are quite needy. They always need to be fed, cleaned, etc...and don't even ask about the makeovers.

You have talent and drive. As long as you can handle the finances you should do great.

I need to do a better job of cleaning. I went to clean my Legion this weekend and found that there was actual sludge built up. Guess I shouldn't have let 1k rounds go through without cleaning it

Hey, my LGS traded for a Legion in fotay. The price was in the sevens I think. Have any interest?

No, but thank you for mentioning it. I want to buy another Legion SAO, to have a backup for my carry gun, but the SAO is only available in 9mm. I had thought about picking up one of the DA/SA versions in .40, but my P229 is filling that role reasonably well. I'll actually probably sell it at some point, as I'm not really happy with guns with decockers. Even though Sig puts their decocker out of the way, I still have to hold it different than what I prefer.

The Wizard has been having this issue with his Witness 10mm. The safety is the rocker style and he is going to have to get a smaller one.

They don't make me leave the country for six or more months at a time.
