Yeah, not that i'm stalking your profile, I was looking at your avatar pic. I can't tell what kind of rifle or scope that is :/

Guessing I would say it is Mosin-Nagant or Hungarian M/52 with a PU scope.

Compare bolt lever and scope mount to:

Yep. Mosin Nagant with a bent bolt. Probably made before 30.

Correction: Frame manufactured before '30 with updated parts added nearly every year after for almost two decades.

No sleep. Bah.

No sleep. Bah.

Me either. Fuckin insomnia. I know that when you realize you're not going to go to sleep, you're supposed to get out of bed and do something else so that your bed doesn't become mentally associated with NOT sleeping (I don't know. Some sleep therapist came up with this bullshit), but I am going to lay right fuckin there until sleep comes or the alarm goes off, goddammit! (guess what happened first?)

PS. I may be a little punchy today.

ETA Note from cleaning jag of yesterday: I hate pairing babysocks. Sheer genetic cheapness keeps me from throwing them all out and buying brand new ones.

ntil sleep comes or the alarm goes off, goddammit!

That EXACT thing happened! I fell asleep 15 minutes before my alarm and had to use snooze 3 times because I literally could not get up.

You just know the whole time that is going to happen too.
I've been a zombie all day. Brilliant.

I used to have a lot of trouble sleeping then I saw a great trick on the TV: what you do is when you breathe in you think "one", when you breathe out you think "two". Now I only have a modest amount of trouble sleeping!

Police in the northern Afghanistan province of Kunduz are looking for a man they say strangled his wife after she bore him a third child that was not a son.

People(s) who believe "by the book" means they instantly know everyone else's take on "the book"'s literature. Bah. Feh. Meh. Yeargh.

Go onsite to do 2 things for a customer, both of which are high priority. Get onsite and immediately get pulled in 10 different directions for a bunch of crap that is all supposedly higher priority, preventing me from doing the 2 things I came out for. Ah well, such is geek merc life.
