    Winters coming. For me, that means starting and ending in the dark. Gotta worry about a frozen up tanker, and backing down into dark, narrow paths wondering if I will get in, or get out. Thank God, almost all the customers have really big payloaders or tractors, and a good stout chain.

    The OM authorized tacos awhile ago. Del Tacos in fact. But I fell asleep as a rhinoceros for three hours.

    Now it's kind of late in the evening for tacos.

    Sometimes you just can't win.

    My personal best (??) is 4X in one day. At one delivery, had to get dragged in backwards to unload, and then dragged out when I was done. But it was a bad weather day.

    Kinda the opposite of the winter time darkness thing but when I was in the Army we had to go up to Alaska for a couple of weeks in the summer and the sun was up for 21 hours of the day, I've never felt so disoriented in my life, without beer. I don't know how those people up there deal with it.
