Had a great eye exam yesterday,,,
And I may have met my future wife. :p

So there I was,,,
Getting my first eye exam,,,
Since I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes.

I have been having some discomfort lately,,,
My MD wanted to rule out Macular Degeneration,,,
And was also worried about possible Diabetic Retinopathy.

The good news is that I have no sign of either eye disease,,,
And I am showing no signs of cataracts,,,
I'm just getting old is all.

Yay!

So I'm discussing the possibility of prescription shooting glasses with the doctor,,,
He left the room to do something leaving me with the mid-20's technician.

When the door closed she turned and asked me,,,
"So, what is your favorite pistol?"

I replied that my favorite was my CZ-75B,,,
She said, I've never fired one of those,,,
Are the grips as wide as a Beretta 92?

I replied that they were much slimmer than the Beretta,,,
Which was the reason I was attracted to that pistol.

She told me about her first pistol,,,
A Glock that she wasn't very happy with,,,
She said she liked pistols with hammers much better.

That's when I leaned forward and asked her to marry me.

She chuckled and declined very politely,,,
So I asked her if she would enjoy a range trip,,,
You could try out the CZ and perhaps others I may own.

We traded business cards and talked schedules,,,
And have a tentative date for this weekend.

I love owning my CZ-75B pistol. :D

^As do I.

That's great stuff! You never know who is interested in guns or who your next shooting buddy will be. I love being the guy that people call and say "Your friend X said you could tell me more about....".
 
Any girl that likes hammers on her pistols warrants further investigation.

The LadyFriend, who doesn't much care for handguns other than those that are DAO tried to bring me around to her S&W M&P (despite not understanding why the name of the gun itself angered me) by touting the fact that while still a polymer DAO, it was atleast an American designed and built DAO gun.
 
getting old

It's coming to all of us, mostly, that old business.

Good luck with managing your diabetes....if excercise is in the agenda, I've become a big fan of bicycling. Glad to hear your eye exam was positive.

Hope a visit with your new friend is in the future.
