Good Night of Shooting

Howdy.

Last night was fun. Threw a bunch of rounds down-range, weather was good, no bugs, felt like I knew what I was doing. Got a good load figured out for the .45, no bobbles, and accurate as I can get them. I need to load about 500 rounds and stockpile. I've been shooting the 45's almost to the exclusion of other calibers. They make nice big round holes in paper, and there is something about and all-steel pistol that feels right in the hand.

Guess I'm just a 45-guy.

Frusterlated

Didn’t get my ride in last night. I wanted to ride last night. I needed to ride last night. All day at work, when I couldn’t get access, couldn’t see what I was doing, when I was trying to do an exam on the squirminham kid, I kept repeating my mantra…”ride tonight, ride tonight…”

Shit

Pulled the bike out and noticed a thorn in the front tire. Then another, and another. Noticed on in the back tire as well. So I have two flat (tubeless) tires, two tubes and a pump. No problem. Put the tube in the front tire, pump it up…rolls about as round as a pumpkin. No matter what I do I can’t get the bead to seat evenly with the tube in place. Now it’s an hour later, I’m pissed, and I threw the bike in the truck and went home.

Shit.

I need to get some sealer for tubeless tires. It’s going to be crappy weather for the next few days I can ride.

Shit.
