    Hope that's it. Sometime compromise is the thing to do. Truck is running bringing in money and you are relieved as settled. Two positives in the trucking life.
    Just don't overdo it trying to wear out two trucks simultaneously.....

    Possible third FORWARD PUDDYMUNGOUS load is delayed. Destinations are yucky.

    Load we're picking up is standard load.

    Missed a good standard load from the FORWARD PUDDYMUNGOUS area with phone in pocket. Believe The OM was taking a rhinoceros nap as well.

    Well after almost an hour of laying on mostly frozen gravel to fix an air leak on my lead tanker... My ### is nearly as frozen as the ground.

    Was clear up in above the axles, tucked up next to a cross-memeber. And to make it worse the 3" diameter suction line from the tank to my pump is ran right through there aswell. It was not a fun experience.

    Currently seated with my frozen ### in front of the heater... Attempting to thaw it out.

    Being a tanker yanker, my deadhead is normally 50%. Out and back. Except for an occasional, maybe twice a year run when I get a washout and reload for home.
