My buddy Tweaker over at Where Sometimes Things Go Bang has a good post up about projects. I started to comment, then realized I was writing a large novella... So here goes.
Projects... I got 'em too...
Like the cherry Remington Nylon 66 that I took apart one evening with the intent of giving a good, solid cleaning... Only to get interrupted and wound up stuffing all the pieces-parts in a Ziploc bag... Banished to the attic...
Or the loverly Hi-Standard HD Military that desperately needs a new set of springs, a thorough cleaning, and perhaps sacrificing a chicken to Baby Vulcan to get it working again...
Then there's the Kraft Products .25 ACP which needs springs and a general exorcism. Since I obtained it gratis, I don't mind reducing it to component gun molecules and seeing if I can put it all back together again in a form that doesn't hang-fire...
Of course, there are plenty of non-gun related projects.
*Two of three bathroom sink faucets need to be repaired or most likely replaced (leaking).
*The French doors off the back of the house need a new lockset.
*The trim on the door to my daughter's bedroom needs replacing - because of the house settling, it started pulling away from the wall. In my ham-handed, half-assed attempt to "fix" it (by pounding on it with a 5-D cell Maglight), I naturally only made it worse...
*Camper needs to be winterized. This is probably the only project that will actually be completed...
I need to learn to go without sleep. Really. It's the only chance in hell I have of getting anything done...
