    Got in from MN Thursday night and no more trips so that just added another day to my vacation. Will not go back to work until 12/30. I will probably drive my family up the wall.

    Did get the news to clean my truck out last night my new truck was in and it should be ready today. 2015 Cascadia 146 miles on it and will not be able to drive it til I get back to work.

    I encountered two things that disturbed me tonight. 1. I used the men's room, and while doing so, a man ran into a stall and began vomiting violently. Not what I needed to hear just before dinner . I go to wash my hands, no soap. I think I'll use shower credits from here on in . At least they pretend to sanitize it after each use.

    I had to wait a bit listening to the obnoxious music in the truck stop to convince myself it was ok to order food.

    I'm at the ATL yard, not much to write home about . It's small, has a shower, toilet, laundry, a tv with 4 channels, and a coffee pot. Shop is closed on weekends. It feels kind of dead. At least it's safe. There is a coded access gate and coded door entry to prevent vandalism or theft.
