Thanks. Kinda. In a way I'm proud. In a way I'm concerned.

 

Yup, that's the reason. Although today showed me that I can mix in temperance. Deadheaded home to see Mrs Junkie, and freight sucks where I was in that particular part of Virginia unless you plan ahead. Weather got crappy about 80 miles out and I was a completely different animal. Still aggressive but not like yesterday. Today was different because of the fact that those roads are more heavily traveled by GD four wheelers, and Ohio four wheelers to boot. Took my time for the last 60 miles because of that. I'm happy about both of those things. Enjoying a pickleback with my wife. Cheers and such y'all.

 

Here's my PSA for the day if you are reading this thread and considering getting your own truck at some point down the road. If you end up with a truck that has those stupid curly-que hoses and pigtail, switch that crap out first thing. They are annoying, and more importantly, they're made of plastic. I just went to go pick up a load from home. Luckily for me, it was very close. I went to do a turnaround and one of these cheap pieces of crap snapped. I wanted to replace them anyhow, just woulda been nice if I could've done it on my terms, instead of fate's terms. I had to forfeit my load and drop the trailer where it sits. Luckily the business was understanding. So I'm getting my hoses and pigtail replaced and then have to go fetch that trailer. Yay ownership Here's a picture of those stupid hoses. Again, I reccomend that you replace them immediately. I ain't gonna miss them a bit.

 

So sorry that happened, man. I don't know why it is that trucking attracts such nasty mother frs. But unfortunately those are our peers. We aren't all disgusting, I promise.
