it to

Ok, Beth, you got me on sentence structure! Anyway, I was about
thirteen.
We had a small orchard behind the house and the ripe fruit would attract
starlings. My dad would let me shoot them with a pellet gun (under
supervision, of course), but, being a latchkey kid I figured it would be
fun
to do a little "bird hunting" in the time before my parents got home.
"Well", says I, "If 1 pellet = 1 bird, think how many I could get with a
shotgun!" Mind you, I was not only shooting unsupervised, I was also
shooting from inside the house, out the patio door! Long story short, I
got
the shotgun down, put the shell in and when I closed the
chamber....BOOM! I
had it pointed right at the front window!
Things were not good in my world for a long time after that...
