    High point, Nc. Not sure where I'm off to next, but 1196 miles is a good start to the week, having to play catch up it helps, now to keep moving!

    It's that time. In retrospect I remember as a kid it snowed before Halloween a few times. That is why our costumes had to be durable and warm. (Thermal underwear easily turns into a mummy) last winter revisited the kind of winters I grew up with . I think we have been kind of spoiled as far as snowfall goes for quiete some time. (Last year being the break in the mold)
    i do believe that once again, it will snow and stick on thanksgiving to bring in what is sure to be another long COLD winter. I have to say though, as much as winter can suck where I live, I can't think of anywhere else I'd prefer living year round as a compromise. We in Michigan never have hurricanes, rarely get tornado touchdowns, and although there is the existence of the missasauga rattlesnake, I have never seen one.
    And my view of winter: a long break from mosquito bites and the few insects that we do have .
    Mill take a blizzard over an earthquake any day.

    Got a load to ATL. Not far, but I'm not sitting still and it's not ultra heavy.

    My goal is to drive as little miles as possible, and get paid as much as possible..... I like the 2500 mile weeks with $5000.000 I don't even remember the last time I drove over 2500 miles...lol

    I was trying to make up for missing a week with my blood problems, I wasn't being greedy. Just wanted to cover my bases is all.
    I came through a flying j the other morning in the wee hours. They had a men's room stall taped off. I was curious, so I asked why. Turns out someone left a used syringe on the toddler chair in the big stall. Blood was dripping from it , and there was blood drops on the floor. I guess the night guard wanted to preserve the scene for police .
    How is it some people are so careless? Someone's kid could have been stuck with god knows what in that thing.
