    Tobasco tastes so much different when it isn't "raw". :)

    I made it home! The past two days have been a hell of an eye opener for me. I find having to run miles and watch the clock (because I'm only inter company delivery they are always ready and waiting) more stressful and tiring than having to parallel park the rig in the city. I know most people probably feel the opposite but I guess it's just what I'm used to. Pulling doubles isn't bad. I learned to stop looking at the marker lights on the rear trailer in my mirrors because that ####er moves around a lot. I see now why when they are in a accident the rear trailer is always on it's side. All in all that was fun doing something new and I'm gonna do it for the next two weeks to see if I like it.

    So I think I figured out why I was soooooo tired. I now have a fever and liquid coming out of every hole in my body. Getting sick will do that I guess. I'm thinking this is why I had to jump off 75 because of traffic when I was headed down to Miami.

    I love pulling into a TS at 0215 and wondering how creative I’ll have to get to park and do my :30.

    Boom great parking space. Must because I’m a very good person and very nice and I gave that flatbedder a parking spot yesterday. Yup.

    I deserve an award for being nice. And humble.

    :D
