New Location, New Threat Assessment.
The missus and I had to go out to the local Wally World from some grocery items and even through the deep fog of exhaustion, I had to start paying attention because I was getting a totally new set of inputs about people and locations. You are not on your old stomping grounds. New threats await!
My first impression of the local Wally World? Being a Saturday night on a small and almost suburban town was that there might be a substance abuse problem afoot. Saw 2 couples with some body language indicators of possible use of processed decongestants and that brought to mind the fact the small .380 mouse gun in my pocket may or may not be enough to deal with a potential Son of Meth if he chooses to become a violent actor. There will be caliber and quantity updates for sure.
It is going to be a new learning curve which actually I will enjoy riding. Shedding 2 decades of preset alarms and substituting them with a new set of indicators is bound to be loads of fun.
