    That's what I'd do. Slide that 5th wheel all the way forward and you'll be good to go with 1/2 tank of fuel.

    Yep. My time is too precious to go back for a rework when I can make that legal.

    I resent that! My dad was sick with cancer. Before Medicare kicked in he had to get insurance. They wouldn't cover him. So obama forced them to help him. It infuriates me how people only see what they want to. And before you ask he had insurance before he got sick and they raised his rate to $4,000 a month? Could you lay that much while being sick with cancer and unable to work? It's not perfect but obama care is a huge step forward in health care. If we could have prices actually at a reasonable rate and everyone insure it should lower rates for everyone. Also vision and dental insurance doesn't even cost much. I think I pay $20/month for top of the line vision and dental insurance. You do realize that before people without insurance would wait and go to the er, then never paufor treatment. So the hospital's had to charge people more to make up for deadbeats. Everyone will need medical care at some point in their life. That's a fact. So do you want to spend $200/ month or $250,000 all at once for a double bypass? Ideally we'd go to a single payer system but that should be decided with the next election.

    I had Facebook for about two weeks before I remembered why I haven't talked to those people in ten years. People act like I'm crazy when I tell them I don't use Facebook. Also trying to delete your account they try to guilt you into staying. Made me laugh.

    Rework is done, good to go (barely), getting a new delivery appointment.

    Preplan takes me all the way back to Casa Grande Wal-Mart by Tuesday 0230.

    Bring it on.
     
    Dominick253 Thanks this.

    I hate fueling at the Ontario CA Petro, but not enough fuel to make it out of the Valley so no choice.

    Half this day has been shot up all to pieces.

    Thought I was going to stop at my fuel point in Castaic (Pilot) and get an easy parking spot and early start tomorrow--how bitter it is to have your naivete shattered so ruthlessly.
     
    Dominick253 Thanks this.

    Sitting behind a guy who just pulled forward and went inside. I have room to fuel but can't get the reefer til that guy moves, so I'm going to wait till I see him to start.

    ...Actually now that I think about it I have another fuel stop scheduled in WA, so I'll just get the reefer fuel then (this is a dry load).

    Oh yeah, my Preplan load cancelled on us, so no idea what's next.
     
    Dominick253 Thanks this.
