    If you're not from Kansas then you have an accent to me.. :biggrin_2559:

    Well, left at 1:30am, loaded at Chanute, delivered dust to Perkins, the bounced back to far NE corner of OK, loaded sand and hauled that to Olathe. Had just enough time to make it to Ottawa. Here I sit, at the Loves T/S, just a mere 27.5 miles from my house. I've been here since 3:15 pm. Wife was going to bring granddaughter up here, but I said no. Why??? Because I took a nap yesterday, woke up at 4 pm,and been awake since then. I did manage to snooze for a couple of hours, but I'm still tired. :biggrin_25518:

    I rolled in here at home at 18:45..... after all of three deliveries today.

    1579# SDV to some airline
    2200# Deep Down to Sullivan Wire and Rope
    1098# SDV to Integrated Air Service

    ALMOST went to Katy for 369# but it got cancelled
    Almost got 1600# for Air France but it got pushed to the AM.

    Stopped at AT&T store on the way home. It was a madhouse and didn't get to ask any questions. I have never liked my Samsung Galaxy S as much as the Motorola I lost.
    But it would probably make the most sense to get a Galaxy SIII to keep things simple......

    Got my load to Gresham....sitting at our W. Sac yard wasting time...rather, delaying to get moving to get hours to carryover from today to tomorrow.....I love playing this "milk the available hours" game!

    Up to OR, then back and do my first 34 restart of the new rules!

    IMO Giggles doesn't talk funny. She talks fast... but I can understand almost everything she says if I keep paying close attention...

    WOW Pete... showered, snacked and washed the truck in almost one hr, huh? Were you trying to beat any record? Congratulations on going thru the first day of new HOS without any difficulty... right? and no violation. I really wish all your days will be like that. As for me, I am not on the road yet... and not happy about going back under these new regulations... :biggrin_25512:
     
    Giggles the Original Thanks this.

    I'll bet it's a cute accent. My daughter-in-law is from Venezuela, so she has a delightful accent. :biggrin_255:

    But Kansasian's have an accent to all of us! :biggrin_25524:

    Yeesus, yumpin' yimminy! :biggrin_25523:

    There's another career out there for Gigs... stand-up comedienne! :biggrin_2559::biggrin_2559::biggrin_2559:

    In the shop in Springfield getting the inspection gig's worked off... :biggrin_2552:
     
    Rocks and Giggles the Original Thank this.

    when I started driving today with 11 hours my elog only showed 8 hours
    until after my break then I got the other 3
    even transam rookies ought to understand that
    now I am not sure about DHE drivers
    appears they are sabotaged by the conflicting office types

    I told you about the guy driving for the Chicago Eastern Europeans
    safety class to them was showing him how to get a restart without stopping :biggrin_25521:
