Welcome to the world of self defense. Thanks for exercising your right to carry. Since your new to carry, take your time about OC. Better to build up to it. Start by carrying around the house. This will help take some of the 'self conscience' aspect out of the equation.

If you haven't considered it already, do get some safety training and general defensive use training. I can't say enough about the benefits.

Congratulations on getting your permit! This was the exact feeling I had when I received my permit back in 04. The first time I utilized was walking home from work at midnight. BTW, did you get the 4-year or lifetime permit?
