    I'm in there cmci random drug testing program, I explained the situation and they’ve put me back in the pool and going to pull another person, said they haven’t had the excuse of being stuck in a plant for 47 hours before... I told her I could take photos of me, my truck, and some antique place that grinds up chicken meat and bones..
    She said we were good, maybe next time.

    Oh, she did ask what I had for food, told her dominos, 2.4 miles, they delivered.
    Had the box in the passenger seat for proof..

    I’m going back to my truck.
    Checked again, no progress, but guy that runs their scales said they’ve had trucks 4-5 days before.
    So, I walked and made a phone call, we’re debating on $500-$600/day, they want 500, I say 600.
    I might meet in middle.

    Anyway.
    Was walking down the road, it’s like 73 here, and was minding my own business, when a cop throws siren thing (woop woop)on behind me.
    Walking.

    I’m in a high visibility lime green with reflective material work shirt, and the cop wants to know what I’m doing.
    Maybe, “Trying to get the #### out of Nacogdoches.” wasn’t the correct answer, while on foot.
    Dude even asked if I had money, so I guess he was trying to book me on a vagrancy charge or some nonsense.

    I think me explaining about the driver who glued his lip to the coffee cups luck has passed to me.
    I’m going back to lie down and watch tv, safer in my truck.

    "Officer, who the #### would come to Nacogdoches ON PURPOSE, except a truck driver?"...........

    Is this the same load as last week, or are you doing a dedicated lane? Sorry if I missed a prior explanation.

    Also, has your wife fully recovered from her recent wreck?

    Well, that's it for me.

    The chicken parm at Petro Glendale is still mighty good.

    I skipped the cake tonight. Not sure why, but hey---"little victories".

    Back on 'er after midnight. G'nite.

    If you make it up to WI, Abbyland Truck Shop has a wide variety of them on display you can sit in and try them out.

    Jeez! Texas loves their super strict law enforcement but that's pretty wild to get interrogated for simply walking down the street.
