new projects, new problems...guns and blood >

It's been an interesting week here at Rancho Relaxo. I'll just cover the bullet points now, and there will be little if no cooking this time. I bought a new firearm Wednesday afternoon. NO...I didn't need it, but I had to have it. I've wanted a H&K MP5 variant forever (HK54), but, the prices on those run from about $2500-4500, I couldn't justify the price...then I found the GSG-5-pk. It looks, feel, and weighs just like an MP5pdw, but chambered in 22 cal, and at around $500, it seemed I was destined to buy it....and I did. :)

So...I have my new play thing....some 12 hours later, i get the call. Stacey was laid off. No fault of hers, just the crappy economy. We'll survive, we keep a pretty tight budget, and I've made some long strides to pay off past due and present bills. (capital 1 can kiss my ass...finally).

so....on to new projects. I have in hand, a rare, limited run, titanium watch case. It was given to me by the maker and designer. It was a test case, and wasn't finished, and the back is a bit.....well, it's a bit nothing, it just doesn't fit just yet....but, I'll get it there. I've been doing some work to it, and found that once again, one of my thumbs feel the brunt of my impatience....thus...more blood...
I know...I'll try and limit the posts of my bleeding in the future...lol..cheers and enjoy kids, greg..
