    The OM authorized us an extra cheeseburger break.
    Actually two, with a medium fries.

    When I took my physical the other day, I had called the number and left a message. Doctor was not IN.

    So like 2000 he calls and asks do I want to get it done. I'd just scarfed a large fries ( lots of salt ) two cheeseburgers, and had consumed about half a gallon of coffee.

    Thinking man, hope my BP isn't jacked lol. Now had done a good bit of walking that day.

    130 / 88 lol.

    Now after being pronounced wtf healthy by a battery of physicians, I just told The OM we can't go off the deep end eating.

    I was 224. Told dude his scale was just like the other doctors, 20 pounds heavy.

    Well, I disagree, even though I've had that breakfast. Only do-able with hot, black, coffee, IMO.

    At breakfast on the ship one time, some guy mentioned Wheaties, and someone said "Breakfast Of Champions", in a loud, "announcer" voice.

    This crewman from Alabama comes walking through the mess deck and says, "Uh-uuuuh. Ever'body KNOWS the breakfast of champions is a RC an'a Moon Pie."

    "Bes' cure for a hangover, too, Yankee boy"..........

    Unfortunately, some of those corporate POS systems (Point Of Sale, not the other thing. Although it COULD be) will ding the location and/or the actual cashier for sales before opening or after closing.

    Of course, they maybe coulda TOLD you that.

    According to gps, some sort of traffic bs and road closures on I-75 are extending my ETA to 1030pm, from 915pm.

    Eff this. I'm stopping.

    Found a spot between two apparent locals parked for the weekend, neither of which is a reefer. Score!

    It's 61° here in Glendale, KY, at the Petro. I got the engine off, the windows wide open and the sleeper vents open to air out the cab.

    Get back on it in the morning and be home for breakfast.
