Skeletool

[Drunk Monk]

Just thought I'd update this whilst my Mac reboots. It was being Monday finicky...

I have many tokens of Legbone - random skull toys, the real skull, the pendant that carries his ashes, other odd things if I look - but the one I use the most is the Leatherman Skeletool that he gave me for being Best Man for his wedding to Sylvia. It's my EDC, but I haven't been carrying it lately because I've been going to some things where I've had to go through detectors. But I clipped it in place for this, mostly because I couldn't find my camping Leatherman. 

I have a pattern to where I wear my gear. I need my tools where I can access them without thinking too hard. On Sunday morning, I could not find my Skeletool. I searched my tent thoroughly to no avail. Later in the morning, while I was in the process of letting go of my attachments to it, the Doc asked if anyone lost their Leatherman. He had found it on the ground in the middle of our medical camp. I have no idea how it got unclipped. I'm interpreting it as Legbone reminding me to be mindful. He never made it to Cali Roots. He would've loved it. 

After Shakedown we went past the Sphere to take selfies, then hit up the Venetian, which brought back memories. I remember when Legbone gifted me that skeletool leatherman, in the lobby there. I told him I had to pay for it, which I did, like a nickel or something, and then he took it back saying he'd carry it in his luggage because I only did carry on. 

In retrospect, my temporary loss of my skeletool was Legbone giving me a head's up about Syl's Vegas prank. 

Well played, old friend.
