I'm finally home. I just drove 14 hours with one five minute break and one fifteen minute break. Supertrucker, right? Ha. I'm so tired. The truck was ok. 1999 Freightliner. All kinds of digital gizmos to play with. Woo. When I picked it up in Newman, Georgia, it was infested with ladybugs. I've never seen so many ladybugs in my life. I opened the door and they bumrushed me. I must have swatted out fifty, accidentally crushed twenty, and there were still about ten of the little bastards flying around during the trip.
I almost stopped to sleep in Shreveport, but I got my second wind while I was fueling up. It's so good to be home. I would have been here sooner, but the stupid truck would only run 67 mph. #$%&!!!
Time for a shower and sleep. Yay.

Hey! Did you know that ladybugs are good luck?

i used to love ladybugs until worked at a client a few years ago that was infested with them. literally tens of thousands of them. the top foot or so of every wall in every office was covered with them. and they'd randomly fall on your head or into your coffee. it was like an alfred hitchcock movie. very unsettling. *twich*

we had MILLIONS of ladybugs this summer. and weird varieties that i didn't even know existed- yellow ones. and orange too. they were cool at first, but then they get pesky. i heard someone accidentally let a whole bunch from china loose. or something. they wreaked quite a bit of havoc in toronto.
