Opps forgot I had my gun with me!

Yesterday It got warm in the office at the shop so I turned the heat off. Well this morning it was a tad bit nipply to say the least when we got in. So all morning long I listened to the chattering of my wife’s teeth and her telling me how cold she was.  So on my way out the door to pick up lunch for the office she muttered out get me a Hot Chocolate I’m freezing.

I pick up lunch then stop at the truck stop to get her the freaking hot chocolate which of course I spilled on the floor and then had to get a new one. Awwe Yeah ….I’m smooth like an ex-lax.  

When I finally made it to the register I couldn’t find my cash.  I started doing the Micheal Jackson / Macarena dance tapping all the 25 pockets on my north face jacket then pants pockets.  The next logical thing, start unloading my pockets onto the counter.  This made the 6 people waiting behind me extremely happy I could tell by the smelly trucker breathing on the back of my neck.  I pulled out the cell phone, pens, business cards, then my gun…..yeah I laid my gun on the counter and kept on searching then noticed the lady staring at the gun then at me and then at the gun.  I told her that it is okay I have a concealed carry license. She looks at me and says “Ohh…yeah….That makes me feel a whole lot better”.

  It went kind of silent in the line behind me the trucker took a step backwards.  I found my money in my inside jacket pocket paid her then reloaded the 20 lbs of crap that I had laid on the counter. Slipped my gun back in my jacket pocket and headed toward the door.

The lady behind the counter told the other lady “Didn’t see that coming”.

Oops didn’t even think about having the gun on me.

Call me Mr. Responsible!
