We go to a sporting goods store.
We go to the ammunition isle, cause we need bullets for the pistol. There is no 9mm ammo in stock. Guess no target practice for me.
So I say “Sorry, honey, its all the gun toten freaks who are buying all the ammo cause Obama’s gonna take thier guns from them. ” (apparantly this gets some dirty looks from some of the freaks in the isle)
“But really Obama’s too busy trying to make sure they have health insurance for when they accidentally shoot themselves to actually take their guns from them. So really, their guns are totally safe!”
Brian steers me out of the isle. Because I have to say all of that in a southern accent. REDNECK accent.
I ask him if he loves me, and he says yes.
“Its cause I’m Klassy! Klassy with a K!.”
So then he says something to the effect that he’s glad he got out of there without being shot. Poor guy can’t take me anywhere. Damn my overdeveloped sense of humor.

Hey, those ammo boxes make for great storage for perfume decants!

OMG, they totally would! IF WE COULD GET SOME!
I’m good with the .22, and they had those bullets, but its the pistol I need more practice with.
I terrorize tin cans.

You probably WOULD have gotten shot down here for that kinda talk.
My painter yesterday came in and asked me if I “minded Rush Limbaugh” because he wanted to bring his radio inside to listen. The first comment that came to mind was “FUCK YES I MIND THAT ASSHOLE” but I managed to tone it down and reply in a civil manner. LOL

Sometimes I feel like Canada is just like the States, and then I read something like this and it feels like a MILLION miles away!

Brian and I joke(except we are serious)about defecting to Canada all the time. I think it’s whatever part of the states you are in, honestly:)
It’s odd to me that we even have guns- its not something I’d have ever bought, but the pistol was a groomsmens gift, so we can’t get rid of that, and the .22 was a gift from his dad, so we can’t get rid of that either. And since we have them, I feel like I should know how to use them. But to a LOT of people, having guns is like the freedom to worship Jesus! Hell, it’s more important!
Sigh.
And as far as healthcare goes… You guys are so lucky up there.
I have health insurance for the first time in 6 years, but because I had a prior c-section I may not have a pregnancy covered. THAT is BS.
