    Hope the Other Half isn't a Closet Subscriber to TTR or Ur in deeper trouble

    BTW, how's her Knee coming along?

    She’s been back at work for a couple weeks — has to watch what she does, but pretty much a non event

    I gave it a good drink the first time I hooked up to this trailer a few days ago in both lines, and then another liter of methyl hydrate (methanol) as I fought with it freezing up on me yesterday but to no avail. It will need to go into a heated bay to thaw out and get the tanks completely emptied and dry. Unfortunately this isn't my usual trailer, mine's 2 hours away at another one of our yards where I had to deck it off loaded with drill stem due to our genius dispatcher sending me to a rig with the load that wasn't needed until they moved to the next location. I suspect no one has drained the tanks on this trailer and dosed it with methyl before it got cold enough to freeze as it's kind of a spare that no one gives a #### about. Methyl will eventually make it's way into the tanks and melt some of the ice but once it's diluted enough you're pretty much back to ice again in them. I told dispatch I'm not going on any more rig moves until I get my trailer back.

    I has returned to The Casa Del OM, and is worn out. I'm thinking a superb rhinoceros visit is in order. Might make tacos.
