    A pretty long day today I guess compounded by the fact that I didn't sleep worth #### last night. Parking overnight in places like last night really make me want to carry a gun.

    Took a couple of hours to get loaded after unloading my scrap metal this morning. Made my way up to Gary and managed to get a new pig tail for the truck and restocked my fluids. Got to take I294 due to my load so didn't have to deal with too much of the Chicago traffic and Milwaukee was already sleeping when I drove through. Got another three hours or so to customer which shouldn't be a problem as I don't have to be there until 1230.

    Weather a little chilly up here, guess I got a little soft from that extended southern stay:)

    Long but all in all a nice day of driving. Stopped a little shy of my customer last night but still managed to get unloaded by 1100. Already had another preplan ready to pick up in L'anse, Michigan. Real nice drive in the UP along US141. The shipper sits right adjacent to Lake Superior which was pretty nice. Rolled back down to Plymouth, WI tonight where I pick up the remaining portion of the load and then heading back down south to Pensacola, FL for a Friday delivery.

    Sitting at the customer in Pensacola tonight. Got the grill fired up and the fish on. Decent temp tonight and a clear, starlit sky. Only got 6.5 hours available for tomorrow. Would be nice to get a load headed directly to Ellenwood as I need a PM and a chance to do some laundry:)

    Well been wearing out I-65 the last few days which is alright with me. Picked up a load in Hope Hull, AL and heading to eastern Indiana but got them to let me roll into Gary for a PM and some extra work I need done on the truck. Had to stop a couple of hours short of Gary in Lebanon tonight. All in all a very nice week of running.

    As expected my windshield and passenger side window did not get repaired at Gary. Delivered at 0330 or so in eastern Indiana morning and picked up another load heading to Vonore, TN (south of Knoxville). Unloaded early Tuesday and then spent the rest of the day sitting in BFE while I was told no loads heading toward the house. Got a relay load yesterday in Dalton, GA heading to Covidien in Atlanta while they were supposedly looking for me a load home. Sat at Ellenwood for 4-5 hours and they finally had me relay another load near to my house this morning. Didn't make it home last night like I requested but did still manage to make the appointment I had for today. Got to finally use the old split sleeper to my advantage to get home on time.

    Got an interview for a teaching position tomorrow but probably won't get it as I tell the truth:)
