The cool thing about servicing your own equipment is, at the end of the day, it'll either return to being whisper quiet, or it will be non-functioning.

Y'all I am so satisfied. Look at that lobster bisque. Absolutely blew my shoes off. I think that might be the most delicious bisque I've ever had, and the cheesecake gave me a physical reaction.

I can clean up a bit in the truck if I need too. Glad I brought one of my nicer work shirts.

Did my delivery at Moosehead this morning, and I decided to park my truck, put on a nicer shirt, and take a taxi into St John to be a bit of a tourist for a few hours. Super excited to get some seafood.

I'm not sure which one it is, but one of the mechanics that my work dumps all of the air out of my seat every time he moves my truck. I know none of them are taller than me, which leads me to believe one of them is an absolute poser. Lol.

Driving through an intense storm yesterday I put on Luke Combs "ain't No Love in Oklahoma." And it definitely changed the mood. I felt excited at first, but then I remembered I haven't seen the second movie, and it didn't go so well for the tanker driver in the first one.

Been coming down pretty hard yesterday and today.

If you chubby fetish accounts don't start acting more normal in my DMs, I'm going to go on Ozempic so help me God.

Traffic is rough today, I think the weather has something to do with it. People tend to be more stunned on the highway after a heavy rainstorm.

I definitely need a haircut and a beard trim. It's too damn hot.

Oh hell yea.

I've been wearing generic jeans for about as long as I can remember, and and they don't do much for my figure. Yesterday I actually went out and bought some real brand name denim. Hoping it was worth it.

I'm not being facetious when I say that getting out of my bunk is one of the hardest parts of this job.

Dusting off this old gem for make a terrible comic Day lol. #MakeATerribleComicDay

This past weekend @starlightserpent.bsky.social made me the happiest man possible by just saying one simple word; Yes. ❤️

"Can I get extra burgers on my pickle?" A thing I casually and confidently asked for at the Wendy's drive-thru yesterday.

Sure am glad the AC is working in this thing again.

Happy Pride, Y'all. Remember that I'm pulling for you, and to never tolerate hatred on the highways of life. The world is not a great place right now, and what we really need is unity and love, community defense and organization. Be safe, and be kind to one another, but take no shit.

It's always when you got to be somewhere that your love of stupid older vehicles bites you in the ass and you lock yourself out of it. Luckily CAA was able to get the door open within an hour of me calling.

Okay, I finally got some food from Wawa today for the first time, and I can confidently say I'm team Sheetz

My first act as Prime Minister will be to sink the island of Montreal back into the lake where it belongs.

Annnnnnnd the AC is dead.....fuck me.

Oh that's definitely not ideal. Time for a road call I guess.

Got very excited to see this North Carolina truck stop had cheerwine, but was disappointed to see that it was only in the big bottles, only warm, and they didn't have the diet or zero sugar variety. #LongHaulLife

I'm going to be out on the road for the next 6 days and I just realized I forgot to take out my kitchen garbage. There are bones and seafood in there. 🙃

Just got a hold of this bat house, and I would love to put it up but that opening seems really small to me? Is anyone who knows bats better than me able to tell me if this is normal?

I feel like that show "Way Of The House Husband" would really be up my alley, but I just can't get over the animation style.

There we go, truck feels more like my own now. Will be good to get that +1 Perception bonus too.

Wait, David Allen Coe was still alive?!?

Rolled down US220 through Virginia today, it's a beautiful drive, but boy howdy has it been giving Far Cry 5 vibes in the worst possible way lately.

An office with a view. #LongHaulLife #Trucking #TankerYanker

An absolutely legendary used car find.

Finally took delivery of my new 16 year old pickup. Other than a few small things it's like it rolled off the production line this year. Boy howdy am I ever rusty with the Wiggle stick.

Work is putting me in a new truck later this week, and I am both nervous and excited. It's been over 8 years since I've driven a manual. But boy howdy if it isn't a pretty truck.

Wait what?

Got a little bit of yard work done before running out of bags.

Saturdays where I only have a 4 hour drive back home make me wish I still operated on paper logs.

I don't understand why my Canadian, hometown Facebook page is full of people supporting Donald Trump. We are bordertown, but every time somebody posts something remotely negative about the states, the comments are just filled with people yelling about TDS. It's exhausting.

Was great to see all the No Kings activists hanging out on the overpasses in Connecticut today.

Been loving the warmer weather. Delivered to a candy factory in Merrillville Indiana yesterday. It was, frankly, gorgeous out.

As a professional driver, one thing I have observed in Canada is that people who drive coach buses are some of the most reckless and aggressive drivers on our highways. I don't understand why these buses aren't speed governed the same way our large trucks are.

What would you say is your favorite para-social relationship?

Decided to treat myself to a 16 year old vehicle.

It's me, I am April's Fool.

Generally I try to keep to myself in public, but there was somebody walking around the Brockville On, CANADA Great Canadian Superstore wearing a MAGA hat. Looked him in the eyes and said "why don't you go fuck yourself?" without even thinking about it. I'm too exhausted to see that shit in Canada.

It got cold again.
