Day 3775

 The goddamn phone woke me up at 7.  It was droiding continuously.  It took me a while to figure out that the stupid hearing aid had been sending notifications all night while the phone was set to quite.  I turned the notifications off.  The hearing aids are useless anyway.  The left one is dead and the right one has barely any volume.

I played games for a while and then got up for pet stuff and breakfast.  We shot at 10:30, so I had just enough time to assemble an install the shampoo holder for the shower.  It looks good.  I hope it works.  Then I loaded up the truck.  We got to the club a little early and waited around for about half an hour.

The target were a little difficult, but nothing over the top.  I shot like shit.  I had several stations where I only hit one.  I just couldn't connect my eyes and my trigger finger.  Usually I just lock on the bird, swing the gun, and the trigger goes off.  Today I had to think about pulling the trigger.  Also I just couldn't read the speed of the birds.  I was not happy. 

When we were done we went to the club.  We walked through all of the vendors.  Ellen got a cleaning kit and a choke for her new gun.  I got a brass wad in case a shell jammed in the gun.  Then we went to the roach coaches and got brisket sandwiches.  They were really good.  I was tired of cold sandwiches.

We went home after lunch.  I rearranged all of the ammo that we'll need and packed the rest away.  I was going to work on the trailer light but it was hot and humid, and I was tired and disgusted.  I went inside to watch videos and fell asleep.

I had a slightly out of date HEB salad for dinner.  It tasted OK.  Then I took Abby to play Frisbee at the dog park.  She had fun and it was the only exercise she got today.  Ellen was watching Chinese chick flicks when I got back, so I spent the evening surfing.

Hopefully I'll shoot better tomorrow.
