Went to a pool hall last night and planned on going straight home so I didn't bring the gun. In TX we can't carry into establishments that make 51% or more of their money from alcohol sales to be consumed on site.
I get a call from a buddy who had car trouble, about 30 minutes out of town. Meet up with him and helping out. Later into the night I get a call from my mother at the house,
"Do you have your gun???"
I'm thinking, "great, one of the rare times I'm not carrying..."
Turns out our other house was being broken into, the cops were called, and nobody was there...but she wanted me to go check it out and reset the alarm. I figured that...
1. I'm not armed
2. I'm not risking my neck over ugly furniture (all that we had at the house)
3. It's late and that's a bad neighborhood
Needless to say it was a false alarm, a bird flew down the chimney and set off the motion detectors. I'm just thinking I'm going to always have a gun nearby, even if I have to lock it in the car.
