    You too Bro! I hope this beast turns before it hits, it's looking pretty ominous right now. Hard to find gas already & store shelves are looking bare.

    Check out stormcastforums to stay up to date on what the models are doing with the forecast for Dorian. Lots of knowledgeable people and even a few local meteorologists post regularly. And nah I'm not terribly salty about your comment lol. Just giving ya some grief. Pretty much any town between I10 and the river are gonna be industrial in nature. Gonzales isn't as bad but it is getting overcrowded, so traffic is usually garbage. If you haven't already, make sure and grab some local food when you come back to pick up your ride. At this point that and wanting my youngins to stay close to family are the only things keeping me here lol

    I do have one question: How are the health benefits? It's gonna be me and both my kids and my current plan is garbage for almost $400 a month (HD plan).

    It’s Blue Shield/Blue Cross so I think it’s pretty good. I forget the exact cost & it doesn’t look like it’s coming out of my check yet so I’ll update when I know for sure. Most people have said the medical benefits are pretty good.

    Cool I'd very much appreciate it. I'd like to put everyone on my insurance and my wife cannot be on an HD plan due to recurring medical expenses, so insurance is a solid number 2 on the priority list.

    Sooo today I left work early to head down to the St Gabriel terminal. Ran home, showered, dressed up a bit, then headed out the door. Got to my exit to get off the interstate aaaand my car broke down lol. Sat and waited 3 hours for a tow to the only dealership in town that can work on my car and pick up a rental. Hope this isn't a bad omen or something.

    Nah, just **** happens bro, no worries. I don’t think the terminal manager was there yesterday anyway because I called to give her an update & was told she’ll be in today (Wednesday) Good luck with the car

    So are you in your truck yet, @SurfBaker? Still waiting on my car to get out of the shop. They updated me yesterday that it should be in the bay for diagnostics today. I'm gonna call the terminal tomorrow after work and try to talk to the manager and get myself on her radar. Monday I'll be finalizing my enrollment and finances to start school on the 30th!
