Somewhat of an aside...regarding concentration on surroundings.
There are four levels of doing anything:
1. Unconscious incompetence
2. Conscious incompetence
3. Conscious competence
4. Unconscious competence
1. You're not doing it well, but you're too ignorant to realize it.
2. You come to understand that you are indeed not doing it well.
3. Your skills improve as you apply thought and effort to the situation.
4. If you achieve competence to much of a degree..you can get the job done without thinking about it.

A different wise ol' fella explained that to me a while back aswell. That and the dreaded target fixation. You forgot my catagory...
5. Incompetent incompetence
5. You're not doing it well, but you're too incompetent to realize it or do anything about it.

That other bed is for you, Carvr, if you can find your way down. Otherwise, we're coming up there to trash your riding area. We will either way, so come down!!

Everyone is invited. There's lots of floor space if the beds run out. By that time, we might just be camping outdoors!! I've got a deck high enough off the ground, the bears and lions usually won't come up there. (That's for Trev's beloved)
