October 11- back in Denver and I'm not dead yet

Man, I must have been more tired than I thought. Slept 11 hours. Weather changed over night, which might account for the sinus headache that awakened me.

Set off on the road at about 14:30... should check my log to see. No biggie. No surprises, only the occasional driver who thinks his vehicle is much shorter than it really is. Nice gray dismal day. Hit the Denver yard and parked the rig, turned the key off at exactly 19:00.

I have been known to complain about idjit drivers who take up more than one parking space. Let it be known that I do not exempt May drivers from that category. In fact, what brings this to mind at the moment is one of our very own drivers who has parked in such a way as to make the space next to him unusable. I will grant that the spaces are small, but that's no excuse. In our own yard, the only other driver he's going to inconvenience is another May driver.

Yard is full, too. Only 3 empty slots – if you count one at the end of the row where drivers are parking their cars these days.

Every time I come back, something has been re-arranged.

Anyway, now I sit and await my steel chariot. This weekend, I WILL manage a 34 (assuming, as I said, I have a job Monday) Delivery on this load is scheduled for 07:00.
