Mt. Vernon, IL - 5/18/09

I just finished eating dinner and apparently my server doesn't speak English. I ordered a quesadilla and received a chicken fajita wrap. Later, after finishing my glass of water (which I DID order), I looked at the bill, only to discover the server attempted to charge me $1.99 for tea. She kind of looked European. Maybe I should have tried ordering in Dutch.

I managed to sleep until 8am this morning. It was wonderful. I didn't want to show up six hours early for my 3pm appointment, so I drove to a nearby truckstop to kill some time. Yeah, would've been nice if I'd realized last night the truckstop was close. Anyway, after taking the scenic route to the shipper, I arrived a mere three hours early, hoping they would start loading me ahead of schedule. They didn't. Instead, they gave me plenty of time to read and nap. It was wonderful.

I should be able to make it to Georgia tomorrow evening. My delivery isn't until Wednesday morning, so I'm thinking I'll be in good shape if I make it to Cartersville tomorrow. Any farther than that would be icing on the cake.
