  This weekend I completed an intensive gun retention course. Always learn life
  skills!

Austin's [Lions Krav Maga](http://lionskravmaga.com/) gym hosted a highly recommended gun retention course. Being that this is TX and self defense is important, especially for queer folx, I couldn't pass up on this opportunity.

In short summary, the final drill involved working yourself to the point of exhaustion before executing a difficult shooting section involving accuracy, patience, and thinking on your feet. I learned many skills beyond simply how to handle a firearm in this class. Such growth!
