    Was at the TA in Milldale, CT. Had just finished breakfast and was having a very nice chat with Mother Nature. Bozzutos calls, wants to know where I'm at and can I come back, they'll take the 50 cases. *sighs* Back I go again. Things go a lot better, this time around AND, there was even still truck parking at the TA. Now.for.the shower in was heading to before.

    I agree with that. Im a fat guy and yet when I go to truck stops I feel skinny to some of the drivers I see. I know I need to lose weight but I also know that I dont have sleep apnea. then again Im over 35 too so maybe I will slide by on that lol. I've always got a two year card so will find out in Feb how my doc does things.

    I lived in Gainesville, GA for 20 years and it's pretty much the chicken capital of north america, Im sure you TA drivers have been there lol.

    Anyway yeah there are a lot of illegals there in those plants and I dont complain about it. I don't know anyone else who could stand to be in those plants. I know I wouldn't. Far as Im concerned make them citizens and tax them, they ain't stealing jobs from people working there.

    Had another cousin find me on line yesterday. Just spent an hour on the phone with her and enjoyed it very much. Kind of makes me a little sad tho. All those years I spent, so involved in myself and drugs..... what a waste!!!

    When Guliani ran the mobsters out of there my grandfather said he will be dead soon. My grandfather grew up in bayridge during the depression. While not friends with those guys he grew up with them

    Well I got a trailer that can't cool to -10 in this 108 degree heat so now I have to go to TK. I was just ready to go to sleep and they will not stop messaging me. Told them I do not feel safe to drive but they are pushing real hard. I will call tomorrow and speak to some one. I just showered and did laundry. Got started @ 0300. Got the load and they made me go through hoops to get it in Liberal. Now sitting in OKC at the J and thought my day was over. All that time from Liberal to here and nothing. Go inside to shower and then they decide that this is a problem. What ever. On my way to TK so if you see Trans Am t-680 with flashers on and moving real slow its me.

    Waiting for my 10 to be up in Crossville TN at the Pilot. Headed to Dunn NC Food Lion for a 6am then Tues another 6am at Fort Mill SC. Load was light for a meat load. Just 32k. Scaled it anyway and didn't need to. 4k under on drives and 9k under on trailer. Myself, I am overweight too, but by 35 lbs (was 60lbs over). But can get in and out of the trailer ok and can get under it just fine as I am only 5'6" on a good day. Wish I could curb my appetite. Deuces.
