    Back in the early 2000’s on paper logs, I would drive til my legs were numb. If I didn’t crash to the ground getting out of the truck, I knew I could drive further. Then came elogs, and now I am in marathon running shape.

    After a week or two of getting everything i want exactly my way in complete isolation, my people tolerance goes down and as much as i love my wife and kids.. Its hard not to be a jerk when theyre yelling and screaming tv blaring mess all over, jumping on me etc. My patience muscle needs a workout after extended stretches out there.

    And the first two shifts or so i usually grind until i remember that i cant pause for 4 seconds thru neutral with syncronizers, and get the telegram to my hand.

    After 5 hours of laying in bed staring at the ceiling, you contemplate firing up the lawn mover and parking it next to the window.

    Or wondering what's wrong with the Jake's when you don't start slowing after tapping the brake/clutch.
