September 29 - who installed this thing, anyway?

September 29 – Up at 5, out of the lot and on the highway at 05:30. Would have saved myself 15 minutes if I'd remembered I spent the night north of the I-84/I-15 junction. Argh!

Only one stupid driver today – and he was driving a rig.

Other than that, day uneventful. Made it as far as Sidney [sic] Nebraska before I stopped for the night. 544 miles in 9.25 hours. If I keep up this pace, I'll be absolutely rockin' for my delivery Thursday.

I've noted two items generally missing from “convenient for a truck on the interstate” list: bookstores and electronics/computer stores. Sigh.

Now it's time to connect my driver's side CB antenna. If I feel like it when that's done, I'll dink with the tower (install DVD and wireless card).

Gah.. what a mess. Some sort of painted on cover for the connector, made it essentially impossible to reconnect antenna cable until I stripped the crap off. That took a while. Gonna crash
