Moving

I leave in 46 hours for my new job in Orlando. This will probably be my last post until I can rebuild my computer which will be dismantled about 10 minutes after I finish this post. I will spend the next 5 months living out of my backpack. At least there are more intelligent people in Florida than in Washington, and everything is cheaper since they don't have a state minimum wage. I'll be making less per hour there than I do here, but I'll be working a lot more and living and going to school for free. It's a trade off I'm willing to live with at the moment. I'll be spending next week with the family back in Mississippi so I might try to post while I'm there.

On a happy note, concealed weapons permits are much cheaper and easier to get in Florida, so maybe I'll be able to LEGALLY carry a gun on me now. I'll have to check with the boss to see if I'm allowed to do it @ work or if I should just keep my mouth shut and do it anyway.

what is it with guys and breaking the law? :) I know that when I go to college I would really like to have a gun (for a reason of course; self defense), but chances are my dad will just give me pepper spray...

Pepper Spray is no substitute for a gaping chest wound. If your dad let you have a gun I recommend a big knife, preferably a switchblade if they are legal in your locale.

As for the whole gun/knife/pepper spray thing, we are not allowed to have any of those on the housing complex property. We are not even allowed to have knives of any kind in the apartment, with the exception of the "sharp knife" provided in our kitchen (think 4" steak knife that needs sharpening). Also devices that can shoot any projectile are also not permitted. So someone at home might be getting a rather large box in the mail in the next week or two.
