I'm baaaaaack!!!!!!!!

It has a separate Webasco type heater that is tied into the Tripac; it is controlled by the thermostat on the Tripac control panel rather than having its own dial. Ironically enough, it has pretty much worked properly since I wrote it up. Wretched little thing probably knows I'm at the shop. My experience with these things tells me the ignite screen is likely getting fouled and in need of maintenance. I'm waiting to take care of it dip it doesn't decide to fail again halfway across Donner in sub zero weather.

 

Pintle Schnookie--I sure hope so, but I think most of the stuff headed West originates in Columbus or Grand Rapids area so there may be a couple more shorties before I get to ride across the driving winds....

 

Oy.

Grabbed a shower this morning. Emptied my pockets including my shirt pocket. In my shirt pocket was a Straight Talk Wireless unlimited refill card. Realized about five minutes ago that I left that card I
in the shower room. Going back to check on it but I'm pretty sure I just blew $45 plus tax. I'll have to get another.

I don't know why I didn't just refill the phone when I got the card. Won't make that mistake again.

I am Captain Zoom.
The Hot Chick is upset with me.

 

Saw some of Victor's thread. Last I saw he seemed pretty okay with where he went after leaving Gordon -- I myself prefer long haul and only get to my home terminal for doctor's appointments and stuff like that. I get home maybe every couple of months. I can see somebody who wants to get home much more often being frustrated with the money here. I'd go batty trying to do regional. Likewise, I have a friend who drives local and works Monday - Friday. He went stir crazy on the road with me (I trained him). He's in his element driving a FedEx day cab; I'd be ready to kill somebody. There's a seat for every tooshie, even if that seat is on a commuter train on the way to the cubicle downtown. A secret of contentment is to find the seat your tooshie fits. And not to knock somebody else because their tooshie is different from yours.

 

Heh..."arch nemesis," LOVE that term!

 

I got back to the yard and asked around about the phone card, nobody had seen it. The Hot Chick asked about it; 7.34 second later, she had the card in her hand.

I told her it was because she looks better in tight jeans than I do....

At least I didn't lose that $45 card.

 

Mexican for dinner and now I'm on the toilet with a garbage can in front of me waiting to see which end cuts loose first...errrrkkk.

Somebody got me.
