    Dave’s running his heater and I’m in humidity that’s about 1000% and the low was 73°. None of that really bothers me.

    What bothers me is nosed in last night. I like my grill and Bambi basher, and I got up at dawn to make my delivery. I step on the grass to check my lights and as an after thought I look down to check for dog poop.

    Hmmmmm

    What are those little blackish things on my legs.

    ####!

    Mosquitos are trying to drain me. I must’ve killed 5 of the ########## on my legs.

    Dawn. After rain. Grass. BAD.

    Got it.

    There's two dudes here changing out in a prostar.

    I walked by and it just stinks like sewer. That's exactly what it smells like.

    Salute to all you company men. You are a better man than I.

    The OM has pointed out, again, that on down or layover days, all cats on the truck are entitled to an extra portion of moist food.:dog:

    I was in Atoka, Ok last Tues? night. I woke up at about 3:30am with a headache and could smell diesel fumes pretty bad. I switched off the blower in my bunk and it seemed to dissipate and I went back to sleep. At 6:30 when I got up got out of the truck, it was really strong and seemed to be coming from the 579 parked next to me with a weed burner exhaust.

    Ive fallen back into the habit of parking in a row of trucks lately and I need to quit.

    Yes and it’s good for you to crank them full blast before shutting down for long periods .. That helps burn off the carbon before it gets too hard
