    You don't realize what you miss until you move from an area with Dunkin every 5 miles to an area where Dunkin doesn't exist.

    Exactly ! Pilot has good coffee but Dunkin has the best.

    The Petro in Amarillo has Dunkin.

    The yella is still pulled in front of the Affiliated. Even cancelled hometime. Thinking I could get rolling, but no dice. Walked 2 miles to the United grocery store. Got some brisket and some coke zero. Now I'm full and looking to have a 34hr restart sometime tmrw. Was thinking about telling the wife to come pick me up but she has 2 12hr shifts this weekend. But if they don't have no loads till monday. I might just catch the greydog home for a couple days. We shall see. This is dinomite signing off. Until next time. Same bat time. Same bat channel. Outtttttt~~~~~

    So in other words your just holding a parking space like I am ?

    This sucks let me tell ya !!!!!!
    The best thing I have to look forward too is a 70 miles drive to a Blue Beacon tomorrow and sit there for 2 hrs waiting for a washout :biggrin_25523: then off to the shipper that another 50 miles away only to take another 10 hr break....hahaha

    Welp I guess I better go use one of these handy shower credits , and grab some pizza and wings.....

    Parked at a FJ right in front of fuel bay again... going to bed right after I brush my teeth and wash my tupperware.... Want to start driving around 2 am cause I want to minimize traffic delays and try to get to a Conoco near a Walmart on I-70 KS.... This truck doesn't go faster than 65 mph... :biggrin_2557: so... not sure will be able to get there... Shall see... Oh, yeah, I am on I-80 in WY now. And a pretty dark cloud is passing by... Gotta go now...
