This is very much my experience!

I love that I have found people on here that like my bear belly, maybe at some point I'll keep one of those posts up for longer than one day LOL.

There's a photo like that where I was trying to show off the shorts themselves actually...

New shorts and shirt... I think this 4XL shirt is a fair bit too large for me which is a nice surprise I guess?

Long drive to a bear event sound *ideal*.

My road trip to Quebec City later this year will not be solo but it will be shared with some bear types so... very much looking forward to that.

Perhaps. I just feel weird after getting unreasonably stressed from that archery championship that was only club level on Saturday.

I still have no clue why I was so stressed for it and have just felt somewhat bleh since!

Maybe a good drive or bear belly admiration would help. 🤔

Sunday and every day since (though today feels closer to normal).

Who knows. I'm going to get through the tournament next week then I might take a break for a week and get my exercise in on the e-bike instead.

I feel like archery right now is causing me more stress than it helps relieve and it's all self imposed. A hard break for a short time might be needed.

Me in another country? Well one of the more recent examples is when I went to WWT Raceway in East STL for an IndyCar race.

You could walk on the track after and it was really sticky due to the race tire rubber.

The one problem is there are quite a few differences between the two skillsets to a point where it might be *too* different. Then again the range owner got a compound last year so maybe I can ask her opinion.

Some archers also get a very basic recurve or barebow to practice with to get back to basics if they're having difficulties with their main bow... so that also could be a route I explore.

Not in my area! You sorta just have to buy a bow to even try it. No equivalent place like my archery range where there are rentals and lessons in my area. My range only teaches Olympic style recurve.

Wondering if I should save up money and try compound archery out... I might be better suited to that.

Just the idea of "getting used" like that... damn 🥵

Me reading this in one of my grey-ace high libido periods: 🫠🥴

Nope, can't tell at all. Still looking soft and ready for rubs (and more).

Still feeling pretty bleh after yesterday, so I decided to try and make a cool livery for a race car.

Did I succeed?

I need to like, go sit by a large body of water for a few hours or something.

That would fix me. 😂

Yessssss love to see it. Indulge that inner fat bull!

I just wish my sub-conscious mind wasn't simultaneously a nervous wreck and a bully. Some days I can control it. Other days it wins... today was more of the latter.

I did... I shouldn't say really badly but I didn't even score as high as my league averages.

226 today vs 232 and 240 for my averages for the league.

Disappointed of course, I knew winning was unlikely because of the handicap system anyway though just a bit sad I couldn't control my stress at all.

Club Championship day and I'm nervous as heck for no good reason.

It'll be fine!

Me in an alternate reality, probably.

Sunroof time yeahhhhhhh!

At least in the case of the archery range it sometimes looks open to the public because the lights are on and people are in there but... that's members only time!

The people phoning really don't have many excuses though.

At least the person who did so today complemented my car, but I still couldn't let em in! 😂

Did some people never develop the ability to look up a businesses' hours before going to said business? Or like read anything about the business first?

The number of people calling or showing up to the archery range lately during members only hours has been not huge but it has been noticeable.

“I can’t wait for the Harry Potter series!” elicits the same response from me as red MAGA hats.

yes yes yessssss. Happy Birthday!

God I love blue and yellow together...
