A naked feeling this morning
Posted: Wed Oct 25, 2006 11:11 am
When I got dressed this morning I didn't don my holster & gun, since I was planning on working from home, and my office is only a few steps from where I normally store my pistol overnight.
I was sitting in my home-office working and a diesel truck came up the street and sat in the street outside my house.
I suddenly realized I didn't have my pistol on & even though otherwise fully dressed felt like I was running around with no clothes on.
Turns out the neighbor forgot to pay their gas bill & the truck was only Centerpoint out to shut off the gas, but the feeling of being naked was quite pronounced (and yes, I have it on now).
I have found it to be quite interesting how having a weapon can be comforting when the unexpected occurs. I was surprised by the feeling of nakedness when I didn't have it on me and the unexpected occurred.

My car did not cost that much!"
