Well it all started last week, saturday as a mater of fact. Waited for otherdog to tell me when he got his package I sent to him, "It was gonna be a surprise, but got ruined" I had to break the news to him sunday. Anyway, I believe it arrived wednesday, a WEEK after it was sent. Usually takes 3 days for me and him to send stuff to each other. Talked to Jobyna to check to see if it was delivered. You talk about a nice person to talk to..."The way I mean that is she don't know me and still treated me like I talk to her everyday" glad it got there in one piece or all 5 pieces are ok. Second bad thing is the boys are sick, runny noses, inner ear infections, etc. I think they are already getting better. The rest of the week wasn't to bad. Had tuesday off because I had to work saturday, and finally found some overalls at a reasonable price. Probably took out about 15 loads this week, which isn't good, but between 6 guys it's not too bad. Got in a race this week, Yes in the Potter's 2-ton truck. Raced a highway department 2-ton dump truck. My truck is a '94 chevy kodiak w/a 366 gas motor, 18ft flat bed, 5 speed w/single speed rear. His was a '04 chevy kodiak w/a 366 gas motor, 5 speed w/2 speed rear, 10ft. dump . He got behind me coming out of their shop, I was empty coming back from a delivery, and he was keeping the pace with me all the way back to the 4-lanes. He followed me for about 2 redlights then pulled beside me in the right lane. We both gave each other shit eatin grins, then we was gone, I started in lo when I shoulda started in 2nd, He couldn't hang with me until i hit 4th, after that he walked all over me. After i caught up "Or he slowed down" I threw my hand up at him and he did the same. That was friday, well the guy stopped by today to pick up a tub for his brother, right away we recognized each other and just started laughing, I told him he was laying one hell of a a$$ whoopin' on me, he replied "I thought you was gonna walk on me" and he thought I had let up. Hell I wasn't even letting off the gas to shift. I guess that's enough of my racing. Pretty crappy weekend though gotta haul off garbage, change oil, go get a boat trailer tomorrow, probably find something else to do too. Need to mow, but runnin' outa time. As Otherdog would say "I must be off"
