Plastic in hand on Saturday! :)
Went out Sunday for my Wally Walk and found that - for me - carrying at 4:30 is like bad acupuncture. Also, carrying in public felt a little weird, but the only time I was apprehensive was at checkout. Every time I pulled something out of the cart made me conscious I was carrying. I went with my 12 year old daughter and it occurred to me on the way there - what in the middle of checkout she asks me loudly: "Daddy do you have your gun?" But a quick conversation about 'don't ask me if I'm carrying' solved that. She's such a good kid
Forgot a couple of things so went to Kroger's later, stopped at the ATM and got gas. That time I adjusted my holster to just past 3 and felt MUCH more comfortable.
Still want to purchase a more compact pistol but have now seen first-hand that with appropriate clothing a full-size pistol in an IWB holster is definitely perfectly feasible.

Re: Any Room For A New Guy?
Yeah it was a pretty interesting feeling -
Getting back from the post office, just having mailed the packet, and sitting down I'm all done!!!
...
...
...
When does it come, I wonder?
...
...
...
I'll log onto the DPS site.
...
...
...
Now I realize it's completely irrational to do this but I did it anyway. I feel like a kid waiting for Christmas.
I managed to avoid logging on to the site today, 1 day after mailing. Small steps.
