    A vacation is a technical term meaning that you are working at home for free, doing all the things that didn't get done while you were out on the road....

    Reminds me of the time I went to sleep and ran off the road... I always used to leave my feet on the floor while laying down on the bed if I didn't have that long to sleep. That way I wouldn't sleep that hard.

    One particular time, I was starting to hallucinate going down the road so I pulled off for a quick nap so as not to kill anyone. I hit the rest area, and set my alarm for 45 minutes. I don't think I was asleep for more than 2 seconds when I started dreaming about running off the road.

    Trees were hitting the cab, but strangely, not making any noise. I remember thinking to myself in the dream, "Why am I in the sleeper? Crap, I forgot to park before I went to bed!"

    I woke up and my heart was just pounding! I jumped out of the sleeper and into the driver's seat, stomping the brake pedal to try to bring the truck to a stop... only to realize I was parked after all. <grin>
