Random Thought Thread

Went to work without any tools aside from a DFK Ti Backpacker as an EDC as I was expecting the other contractor whom I was meeting to bring his tools. The other other contractor was expecting me to bring my tools and came empty handed. So we ended up preparing some drywall for Monday and called it a day. What I learned was that even though the edge of the DFK felt dull and lifeless, the tungsten carbide edge kept on cutting and cutting. Really impressive.
 
Just posted my current Super Duty bed for sale. Hopefully there is some poor sap that's in the same position I was in a few months ago- bed rotting out and he can't take it anymore. I'm dying for that flatbed to come already.
 
Or push out a run of EDC in PSF27 and 4V in between the 175 D3V. But offered with more utilitarian sheaths sans integrated belt loops with standard 1/4 eyelets spaced to support third-party clip and attachment systems.

I have been getting a little too frustrated with work lately, I was hovering around my uncouth mouth point too much. I work as middle management in state government, nobody wants to mess with the tragically angry folks like us. I'm not in a position to be able to indulge my potty mouth so it seemed like it was a good time to take advantage of this beautiful weather and get the fudgesickles out of dodge for a minute. I'm going pretty modest as far as a vacation goes, just heading to a lake in Iowa that's about an hour and a half away. I was going to do a 'stay-cation' and just screw off at home but I've got a side of leather from Wickett & Craig coming on Tuesday so I wouldn't really be on vacation, I'd just be working on something else.

It's not a huge lake, I think it's about 400 acres. It's supposed to have really good shore fishing but they also have boat rental so I might do that or take the kayak out. I've been fishing since I could walk but I've used a cane pole or something like a Zebco 33, 202, 404, etc. I guess it's like knives, you can spend as much money as you'd like and have all kinds of funky techniques. Spinning reels are new tech to me, baitcasters honestly look like some kind of evil magic. I bought two packages of nightcrawlers, that's the kind of fishing I can understand. I'm taking a couple spinning reels and a couple baitcasters just in case though. It's four days on a lake, I might get bored. (Sacrilege, and unlikely.) Channel cats are supposed to be hitting like crazy right now. Maybe I'll just work on an even tan for my beautiful meat suit.
 
Good eye on the field knife! Looking to add a few more CPK soon. I'm getting ready to pack up, so I'm pulling bags and boxes apart yo see what s inside. I found a few flashlights
