    Oh, yeah. Stanfield, OR since about 1545.

    I was perfectly safe to drive the two remaining hours to my destination, but some pencil-neck in DC thinks he knows more about my awareness and reaction abilities after working 70 hours in 8 days than I do. Despite the fact I only put in 7 hours today, I was forced to shut down.

    I will be departing at approximately 0430 to make my delivery on time. I am normally still comatose at that ungawdly hour that is only fit for owls getting their final meal before turning in and military recruits. Therefore, I will not feel completely on top of my game. Safe? Perhaps. But only because of the lack of traffic at that hour. Perfectly safe? Not on your life. Legal? Absolutely.

    But that pencil-neck knows more about it than I do. I'm just one of those "special" window-lickers who holds onto a steering wheel for a living.

    If you're where I think you are, I'm surprised you're not hanging out with your kids.

    Moriarty, NM. Wind finally quit. Injun, looking forward to that Chili tomorrow. Since I will have an extra hour or so to spare, I might even donate some $$ to the rez, try the slots. With my luck, this why I say donate.

    Edinburg TX. Heard a loud boom earlier. Abby and I went to investigate. Gas hauler smacked Central so hard he put him in the oncoming lane and broke his engine. Oil spilling all over the road, fire department doing a hazmat response.
