Guns are fun!

Ok probably entirely different story depending on your line of work and so on, but for me, I am having such a great time learning to shoot and learning about/getting to know the feel of different guns.
It seems that last week my getting along so well with Dave's 9mm was not a fluke. I shot 4 different 9mm's at the range...

The 9mm cartrige is one of the easier cartriges to shoot well, the recoil isn't excessive and the higher velocity of the bullet gives it a pretty decent amount of power for as small as it is. I don't know which range you are going to but the shootist off of santa fe and dartmouth has a good selection of rental pistols. one that you may like to check out is the taurus millenium pro, it is a compact but it gets great reviews from the gunwriters and it's less than $300 at sportsman's warehouse. another good inexpensive pistol is the kel-tec. you should be able to pick up a new one for less than $250 and it also gets some pretty good reviews. the web sites are www.taurususa.com and www.kel-tec.com.
anyway if you have any questions e-mail me at castelo75@msn.com, my name is zac.

Finally got to sleep in today after a busy (but cool!) week. Thank goodness for sleeping late!

I guess I'm having kind of a productive day... burning a pile of DVD's to keep up with the ever-full hard drives, emptied my trash, did my vacuuming, made a little things-to-do list of a couple of things to be done by particular days this upcoming week. After...

Absolutely no time to write much about it now, but...
Realized that part of my recent pattern of waking up way too tired is that I'm not sleeping all the way through. Instead of one wake up in middle of the sleep period, I'm sleeping almost through, then waking a short time before the alarm. Short time meaning 10-30 minutes. Effectively wasting that last bit...

My day today went as expected, except I wasn't quite as tired as I thought I might be waking up, and it wasn't quite as cold as I thought it might be outside, so I wasn't miserable on the way to the studio!
Session was great today. I got to listen to all kinds of nice work being done on the audio, ask tons of...

In reference to the previous, I'm already over the "crash" episode. I'm still tired and not looking forward to waking up, being cold, and having a long drive in the morning. But I'm not feeling shaky, spiralingdown depressed like I was for a few minutes there. It's cool, I almost don't mind feeling like that for a little bit if I know I'm going to...

Uhhhh... just had kind of a major crash toward the end of my workout and on the way back after. I know the reasons, and knowing the causes as I do is what's going to keep me till tomorrow when I'll be fine again.
1. I'm very tired. I'm glad I went and did the workout in spite of the late hour and giving up...

Lots more rambly journalling...

I woke up today thinking "I need a vacation." It's not that I don't do fun/entertainment/non-work-type things, but I haven't travelled, gone somewhere new, away from my day-to-day activities, in a long while. One of these days... or more likely months... or next year... or something, I will figure out somewhere to take off to for a few days of pure...

EYESTRAIN.... burning, oh joy.

I know what it's from though.
I just spent several hours (was that really all, actually felt like longer!) formatting text for this web page I'm working on for Airshow (the mastering studio).
More precisely, formatting the code that formats the text, to make it uniform through the whole page.

Long story, something like this:
Broad but mostly valid generalization--

... I just woke up from a dream about the mastering studio!
Of course the downside is that in the dream I was getting a song of mine mastered by one of the guys there (a person in the dream who had nothing to do with/no resemblance to anyone I actually know from there) and he was telling me there was something wrong with the...

I'm still kind of tired, despite again, a decent amount of sleep last night, but today was a good day. I got to sit in on two mastering sessions, very different from each other, plus a little editing session. And I'll probably get to sit in on two more sessions next week, with the chief engineer/owner/founder of the studio.
The more I find out about...
