    Almost 10 hours driving today to go 480 miles.

    Houston was so F'd. Twice.

    The second time back through...... Marten dies in the third(3rd) lane of the 410. Carnage results.

    A short while later on the 45, two $100K SUV's get together, both completely destroyed, occupants unharmed, blocking the third(3rd) and fourth(4th) lanes. This caused a HUGE MANATEE.

    The one DUDE wearing a cobalt blue suit and bright red tie. The OM was like "WTF?"

    Then a few moar miles up the highway two(2) sections of mobile home are going up the highway with police escort, also blocking the third(3rd) and fourth(4th) lane.

    These were all blessings. We just don't understand them is all.

    The DUDE next to me just left. Now we're on the end of the row in the driveway.

    There's negative time available on my electronic overlord.

    What do you do???????

    HA!!!!! The electronic overlord has given us 2 hours and 3 minutes.

    We can move around a little without fear of reprisal, if there's an open spot.

    Houston definately worse than Indiana. But Indiana roads are way worse. Hard to understand where the pothole is when the whole place is a pothole. I’d describe it as the taint, gooch or most likely one of the bholes of America. lol. Pilot in Brazil Indiana did not disappoint, reviews were accurate. Showers might need what ever your hauling to disinfect them. lol. Still had to take a shower though. Still confuzzled as to why the towels smelled like the dookie that was left in the toilet? I mean they SHOULD have been washed long before that. But makes ya wonder how? Oh well have moved 2 hours closer to delivery a whole whopping 2 miles away. Don’t deliver till 7 pm. Pretty sure I’m gonna be wore tf out then, after driving 100-115 miles today. The manatee will be real. About 775 miles in 2.5 days idk if I can go on much longer like that. I mean is barbaric that kinda work load. But endeavor for mediocrity. lol.

    Well I’d say don’t go over 5 mph. And look for a better spot or find a poor sap to park next to you. Maybe offer a poor mega carrier driver 5-10 bucks to park next tot you. That should about double his,her, it’s daily wage.
