| I knew something wasn't right when everything was going smooth until the dump truck in front of me decided to park on the sidewalk for a good reason.... Hello New York, please to meet ya! |

| Got some pizza delivered to my truck:) You're in NY, Who wouldn't!! Thank goodness the guy asked me "HOW MANY SLICES" I wanted.. It ain't no Alfy's pizza where they'll ask "you wanna medium or a large?"... Each slice is almost as big as my foot! I know what I'm eating for the next few meals now! It was very very tasty I might say. Thin crust with layer of mozzarella cheese on the bottom that is as thick as the crust, grilled chicken and red peppers topped with honey mustered. Not the best area to drive a truck but this made it worth it!! |

| 08/30/12 07:00 CST Stop #1: Kitchen and bath supply wear house in Eau Claire, WI |
Got to Eau Claire, WI early this afternoon with no service hours to spare. 70h/8day law just ain't enough.... Only got 5h dropping off at midnight from 8days ago.
Good thing I don't have to be in Helena, MT till Monday so I'll definitely reset my hours in the next few days.
Got to study mtg just out side of Eau Claire. First study mtg on the road for the
longest time. Glad I got to one.
One more thought from the traveling trucker!!!
A car passing you with somebody riding shotgun sleeping....
Bigger and wider the mouth hangs open
Bigger and stronger the urge to blast my air horn
