Almost done

After I got up this morning, I figured I might as well get the AC/Heat fan looked at; the fan hasn't been working for a week or two, and with the warming temperatures of spring (well, they're supposed to be warmer), I didn't want to be without air conditioning for too long.

With that out of the way, I was ready to hit the road for a nice Sunday drive back to Georgia. Everybody else on the road, however, apparently had no interest in a nice Sunday drive. They seemingly hit the road for a nice "cut in front of that big truck and hit the brakes" drive. And that's why I wish all four-wheelers (cars) had CB's. Yelling and cussing to myself just doesn't seem as satisfying. Some minivan decided to drive into a guard rail, so the police and a highway response truck blocked the right lane. Seeing the impediment ahead, I slowed in the center lane to allow cars to move over. Well, I flatter myself, really; the cars were coming into my lane whether I was there or not. After all, everybody knows the world will flat-out cease to exist if a driver has to actually slow down or *gasp* stop in his lane to avoid a collision. Only, once the guy cut in front of me, he hit the brakes to make sure he got a good look at the crash and almost caused another one in the process. Ah, well. FYI, the air horn still works. Fortunately, the brakes do too.

I-65 through Louisville. Worst. Road. Ever. Still.

While I'm home for the night, I'm scheduled to deliver this load in the morning, just a few miles away. My next load picks-up in Atlanta and should give me some home-time.
