Its been a hard days night
And Ive been working like a dog
Its been a hard days night
I should be sleeping like a log
But when I get home to you
I find the things that you do
Will make me feel alright
You know I work all day
To get you money to buy you things
And its worth it just to hear you say
Youre gonna give me everything
So why on earth should I moan
Cos when I get you alone
You know I feel okay
When Im home everything seems to be right
When Im home feeling you holding me tight
All through the night
Its been a hard days night
And Ive been working like a dog
Its been a hard days night
I should be sleeping like a log
But when I get home to you
I find the things that you do
Will make me feel alright
Cause when I get home to you
I find the things that you do
Will make me feel alright
When Im home everything seems to be right
When Im home everything ..
All through the night
Its been a hard days night
And Ive been working like a dog
Its been a hard days night
I should be sleeping like a log
But when I get home to you
I find the things that you do
Will make me feel alright
Alright
Friday evening the three of us ran down to Doc's shop for MOA and hung out till going to bed. I got woke up at 5am by the damn Doc's dad n sister they were goin fishing. Wasnt too happy about it but whatever.
Got to the field around 8:00am and waited till about 9:30 to get going with play. Had around 25-30 folks show up. Small but totally worth playing and enjoying.
We played like 8 games. A few attack defend in the front end and then a few more "grab the tire" near the back end of the field at the bridge.
The best part was that I got the new gun Ive had my eye on for awhile now. Another team member brought the one he had and wasnt ever using so I took it off his hands. Im now an owner of a Echo 1 Socom 16 rifle. Love it. Its shooting so nice. Short of a dbcustoms tightbore barrel its good to go. ...Well that and a nice x2-3 scope. The day ended around 5:45pm and we headed out after saying our goodbyes.
Next weekend is SFOD game on Sunday. Im rather excited for more trigger time with the gun. Im a damn good shot. I was being complimented on my shooting actually, which is saying alot. Why? Because its not self boasting.
Echo 1 Socom 16: 0.30's("pink lovin") @ 255fps and 0.25's @ 285fps
Pink Lovin' is firing out of this barrel for life.
Oh and...I love Rachel Prewitt. Yup yup! Friggin miss that girl way too damn much for my own good.
Went to "construction weekend" for the field it turned into Team FMF just shootin' the shit for the afternoon which is totally fine by me.
Doc gave me and Pj our new Condor Molle vests so that was always nice. Getting new nice vests like those to wear make things easier. Should have a picture of the team up later on.
Been a good day. Unfortunately thats on the surface that it was. I got a call from my sister this morning saying my Grandpa, my moms dad, has his livers failing and they arent sure how much longer he will be around. He is my last grandparent alive and would suck to have him go.
Ive gotta love the apartment and I do. Still at the feeling of it being not my place but that will pass.
Thus far we all seem to like it and get along fine. I expect disputes to come about because none of us has been around each other for extended periods of time. Fortunately I think things can be worked out fine. Me and Pj always have managed to deal with shit without it carrying to far.
Um...oh. Pj was feeling rich so he got a bunch of entertainment type things for the apartment. So kudos x10 to him. I wasnt aware he was going to do such things so swiftly. The apartment is now happy to provide itself with a 42" widescreen 1080i television, a wii, and a nice LAN router/cable modem.
Im sure that pictures of the place will float by sooner or later if anyone cares.
Got my car back on Saturday morning, I guess the tires were shipped in faster than expected. So $200 later Im fine.
Still need to get a few things from home because I neglected to put them in my last load on Friday night. Table & chairs for dining area, testers paints, and asorted other things I will stumble across while back up at the house sometime this week.
Oh ya...we dont have internet and it is driving me insane. At least 10 times Ive caught myself opening firefox only to sigh as its "page cannot..."
The Going Price For Home
So I left work around 4:30 yesterday got maybe 5-6miles from the office and was another mile from getting onto 196 East. I cross some train tracks and to my ears I hear a glorious sound. Piff! Hisssssss!
Flat tire, rear driver side. I pull into the nearest parking lot just as the tire empties out of all its air. I get out to take a look. I have a nice 2-3" gash on the side wall ending on bottom side of the tire. I was pissed. Something hit the tire hard enough to slice a clean gash in the tire side wall while going over the tracks.
I move onto tryin to change the tire and come across my first problem. Covering the lugnuts up is a nice 6" round cap. The cap is held in place by a phillips head screw. The screw head is completely devoid of its original inset. So I cant get that off to even start on the lug nuts. I call up my Dad and we go home.
We return with tools to get past the problem. And sure enough after rejacking the car back up he pulls out the screw. We take the cap off and use a 4 way torque wrench to work on the lug nuts. We manage to get 2 of them off. The other 3 are on so fucking tight that they had to have been put on with a air wrench of some form. Short of rounding the things off and making it impossible to get them off we could not do anything about it.
So now on top of getting a new tire, custom to the car running me about $95 a piece, I have to pay costs of getting service of an air/power wrench to get those things off.
Oh and the tire may have to be Fed'ex shipped in to the area because after looking online at the tires website it isnt housed locally. At least, not by the tire discount who the tire company goes threw.

Okay so it is now Tuesday, I feel regular tired instead of the overly tired from such a long weekend.
Today I my lovely womans Birthday! So Hooray for her, unfortunately I dont think she remembered her own bday or has time to enjoy it. Finals work is getting all up in on her back. Im happy for her though, shes going strong with getting a 4.0 for the year. She gets things done right when she puts the time into it. I love that about her.
Work has slowed down some finally. There was a good 2-3weeks where I was just going, going, going. Seemed like everyone had a computer renewal,breakdown, or reorganizing all at the same time. I was glad to be keeping busy but it was annoying. Go to help someone and someone else comes over with there problem they think is way worse. Go to help them instead and then the other person is all in a tiffy about there issue because they dont know $0.02 to save them the time to solve it.
This last weekend was awesome. Took off from work to go to Operation: Rolling Thunder 2
I walk away from the whole thing with a new team, new friends, and plenty of good times ahead to look forward to.
My new team is FMF(Fleet Marine Force) It is a small new team hosted by Op-Doc(aka Delta-38) Who is the owner of MOA(Military Ops Airsoft) who is also one of the leads of the MIA boards which is in charge of all Michigan airsoft event listing/organizing. So basically its a team thats going to be rolling out in the nice gear, with sponsors to back things. Its nice to have that. If you happen to drop by the FMF site its currently under construction due to the fact that team FMF is only 3weeks old now.
I would like to thank PJ and Mandie for the pictures. PJ for use of his camera to get some shots of the early evening pistol games, and Mandie for the awesome pictures from the rest of the days. Ill be adding in links for the other albums a bit later on.
