Trucking can be like a bad marriage...

Thanks U4EA....and you've given me a platfrom on which to lay down a few more thoughts...
I really can't add anything to what ya said...we're pretty much on the same page there...

So off with the deep pround hat...and on with the cold, pretend to be wearing pajamas while laying on bed gossip or chat on the phone hat...

Hang on, let me change real quick..



Ok, I've changed...it's still cold..the hardwood floors very cold on the feet,
Let's start a fire here before bed...



Boy I tell ya, I picked on heck of a time to quit...or season...I cannot stand the cold...
One thing the truck did, was keep you warm...chummy warm...the heat was very seductive...

I could never survive up north working a blue collor job...like construction...any job that required me to be outside for more than 10 minutes, I could not do...

Funny thing is, is when I was much younger...before I ever thought about driving a truck...I would look at all those deliver trucks in envy, thinking to myself 'Gee wiz, all they have to do is drive around all day in a nice heated vehicle...'....(oh little did I know)...

My emotions are blank right now...yes, even I have these moments folks...

But when your in a room with a friend or friends, you don't nessicarily always gotta say anything...that's not always where the comfort or meaning comes from...

(pause)

This place is still a mess from all the stuff I took out of truck...

(pause)

Well I guess it's time for bed now...I'm glad I'm not Danial Boon right now or Davy Crocker...having to sleep on the cold dirt...

If I were fighting the war back then, it would of been called off until late spring...

(another pause)...

Ok, I've stalled long enough...time to post this...and fade out either listening to JT the brick and Tom Looney...or some B-horror movie CD...

Speaking of Tom Looney...a sports broadcaster for Fox...me and him use to email back and forth...

And U4EA...I use to send him photos...I mean the colorful artful ones...and he was cool with it...not sure what he ever did with them...

But as busy and popular as his show was...he always found time to return my email...maybe he felt sorry for me...and at the time i was trying to make it on stage...and he was giving me pointers....

The trucking entered the picture again and ripped me away from all of that and put me around people without dreams or vision...
(Or at least not willing to share them)(They like to stare, but not talk)

At the club you were whineing and dining with big shots...at the Pilot truck stops, I was being whined and dined by Subway, and 2 for one special corndogs...



Ok, I've managed to stretch this out longer than I should...
And now I'm hungry...and there's nothing to eat here...a grapefruit...
I guess that'll have to do...at least half of it...

Pleasantries...

 

Yesterday felt like an explosion of mishaps...



not just once, but twice...



And then some....



But I did pass one simple small test...

And the lady was like 'wow! you passed it'...

Her response to me passing test, was insight to me the level of people she deals with on a daily basis who don't pass...

She made me seem like a genious, when in fact a 5th grader could of past that test...
Oh well...

that was about the only highlight of the day...fore after I left out of there, mr bad luck jumped me behind a alley...



Oh, the sick pleasure of it all...

 

I saved myself around $300 dollars today...just by asking questions..I already have, what I thought I needed to get...

I only wonder how many other people have been led down that path mistakingly?

Or did I just off set my own usual bad luck by asking questions and being so inocently dumb??

So, with todays news...it helps off set some of the devistation of yesterday...

Also...I met a relative of this woman right here...
A profesional model..



Tiffany. S. For privacy reasons I'll leave out the last name...

But yes, I met a very close relative of this gal today...I was like wow??

And will not elaborate any more than that, for now, for privacy reasons...

It's funny though, that do to my inquisitive nature, the people I tend to run into..., but running into them is not enough, it's the ability to get them to talk, that's the key...

A few weeks ago it was that football players mother...

Anyhow...it's cold...not much else I can do today while still light out...
I get all my energy at night it seems...

back soon...

 

Hi, just feel like checking in for some reason...just had some steamed sea trout and salad...sure beats corn dogs...

Actually corn dogs are my weakness...there's something rottingly seductive about them...their greasy, and bad for you, yet good...they satisfy your taste for the moment...and stomache...



That, and mixed in with ketchup and mustard, and other junk food...it's like having a orgy of bad food delight...

But then after words you feel bad, guilty, and vow to never do it again...

Corndogs have a seductive power over me...

Anyways...another cold night 19 degrees maybe...
have plenty lined out to do tomorrow...need to get started on updating resume tonight...

Stuff like that so does not interest me...it feels like doing logs or something...

I wouldn't mind getting a class B driving job...even part time...I wouldn't mind at all...



And have kept all doors open...
I just don't want no OTR stuff again...or even sleeper cabs...cause they'll trick you into going over the road...

Or SE only, type of adds or Team and regional...no...it's all the same...
I've been looking really clean and kept lately...as such, I feel more confident...

Well, I've actually got a lot of stuff to get in order for tomorrow...not saying I'll do any of it...but I'll make an effort...



I'm at a time in my life where I wish I just didn't have to worry about any of this trivial stuff...
Where I wish I could just wake up in a large beach home and just watch movies and tv all day...



And watch the sun set in the evening while running around barefoot drinking wine and playing with your friends...



Lifes to short to be dinking around with all this trivial stuff...
Those who do get to experience that other side of life, are very fortunate...at least from where I stand right now...

(long pause while day dreaming)...

Oh well, back to reality...my feet are cold, so are my legs...and those darn cats are running around on the roof again...

 

Good morning everyone...



Another cold, yet clear night...cold but sunny...
The worst part is trying to pry yourself out of bed or covers
Or sleeping bag...when naked skin meets cold air...makes
you wanna just stay in bed all day...

I no longer have the desire to 'conquer' the world anymore...
I only want to be left alone, with enough needs, to sustain
myself and others, in peace and calm, away from mans bussling
industry or industries...

I'm sure that's what many people want now...that's one thing
many of us on here probablly have in common.

In the past, anyone could afford a million dollor view, to build a
house or tp or tent or cabin there, without having to go through
a realitor...
But greed, has made it so you gotta be a millionaire
to live on the beach...greed has really wrecked life, for the common
peasent types...

Well as such, I got some running around to do this morning..

But I'd much rather stay in bed, relax, dream and fantacize...
About living a charmed life, inside of a large Mansion with bed side
service from my hired hands...



Yes, to lay in bed all day while being serviced...oh that sounds so nice...

Oh well...reality calls...and so does nature...

back soon....
