New York

So it's weird to be home. (Home being not really home, just where I went to high school - Rich Whitepeopleville, NY, just outside the city.)

$10 for a pack of cigarettes? Really? Fuck you and your vice tax, NY.

On the other hand, I'm sitting here drinking a glass of the Cragganmore 12 year single malt, so I can't actually complain. Except for the fact that my January ship date to basic can't come soon enough.

On another happy note, I got free sushi and beer today and it was wonderful.

In terms of firearms, I really am missing my AR, my AUG and my AAC suppressor. Such things are illegal in this damned nanny state. I also finally bought a decent 1911 - a used Springfield TRP (Armory Kote, not stainless) through a guy on Sigforum. I won't get to play with it until I get back to CO, but the anticipation makes it even better. I also ordered a handmade holster and mag holder from Ryan Grizzle (rgrizzleleather.com - can't get this fucking link button to work). Review will follow when I get it in 6-8 weeks or so. You gotta be patient with made-to-order things... it pays off in the end.

Well it is apparently 0300 right now, which means I should have been asleep hours ago. Stay classy.
