    I just paid $22.50 for a burger, fries, and milk shake. I figured it out. The extra charge is for the view of the NYC skyline.

    Going over the causeway in Loosy Anna on i10. Suddenly it was like a sudden rain. Big swarm of bugs. Uncanny!

    I have to vent about something that annoys me more than anything. If nobody is in the seat and the curtains are closed, consider that a do not disturb sign. I get it's exciting to be on the road and to run into your fellow company drivers, but please don't be that guy. In my 2 years at a mega running nights I can remember at least a couple dozen times I've been woken up by other idiots in the company just wanting to chat and tell me how their first month has been or to tell me my trailer tails are still out and whether or not I wanted them to close them for me since I'm parked. About every day I'd wake up around 6-8PM and get my pre-trip rolling and everybody comes flocking out like no go back to bed go take a shower I got work to do. I don't care about your first 600 mile day or what states you've been to. Catch me at a fuel island or terminal if you want to chat, not in a parking lot where you should either be sleeping or trying to get out as fast as possible before getting blocked in by some white Volvo.
