I didn't meet this Asshole but I know he is an Asshole

I'm at Flying J truck stop in Walton, KY, relaxing, looking at some Sporty bobbers online when I am jolted forward.
Damn! Somebody just backed into me.

I put my boots back on and went to the back of the trailer to see if everything's fine.
It is.

Except the behavior of the culprit. He didn't get out to check things out.
(And by the way I felt the impact, he had to know he hit me.)
He just pulled away, toward the exit.
Never saw his truck and the trailer doors and sides were blank.

I may not know you driver, but I do know you're an Asshole.

This week:
Monday morning went to Toronto to deliver and then 2 pick-ups and back home.
Tuesday left for Lebanon, TN. That's by Nashville.
Delivered Wednesday morning then up to Louisville, KY for a late night pick-up.
Delivered that load on Friday morning in Trenton, ON.
Back home Friday afternoon.

Just some clips from the dashboard.

Old pop "Français".

R.I.P.

My little Pride and Joy.

Yum Yum!

The 1st new car I bought.

I saw 2 movies last weekend.

Friday night, I watched "Next" starring Nic Cage on TV.

Nic Cage wasn't as bad as I expected him to be.
(Last of his movies I saw was "Ghost Rider" and he was like a "Zoolander" on a motorcycle, i.e. he was awful.)
I thought the movie was pretty good until the end and then it totally caught me by surprised and it pissed me off that I did not see it coming and it made the flick better.
As a bonus, the very pretty Jessica Biel is in it.




Saturday, Melinda and I went to theater and saw "Tropic Thunder", starring a lot of people.
Ben Stiller, Jack Black, Robert Downey JR and a lot more.
If you are easily offended, stay home.
They joke and make fun of EVERYBODY.
In a way, it's an old school film like Mel Brooks used to make.
They do not care who they offend.
Of course 99% of the jokes are stupid.
But once in a while, it is good to stop being so serious and sensitive and fun to laugh at fart or fat jokes.
Bonus, worth watching if only for Les Grossman.

Mixed feelings week-end

This past weekend, Eva-Mae went camping with her babysitter.
She left Thursday afternoon and came back on Sunday after lunch.
My wife was off all weekend long.
And I got home Friday morning and left Sunday before lunch.

Obviously, I did not see my little girl this weekend.
But that is not really unusual as I have been gone 2-3 weeks at a time before.
This time, she's the one that was gone.
Just Melinda and me in the house felt strange and somewhat lonely.
We were not able to sleep in on Saturday or Sunday. We still woke up when Eva-Mae usually wakes up.
I even almost panicked when I walked into her room on Saturday morning and saw that she wasn't there.
I had to think about it and remembered she was camping and not kidnapped.

Melinda and I were able to spend some quality time (wink-wink) together.
Saturday, for the 1st time since I don't know when, we went for dinner, movie and, well, you know.

I had a good weekend as a husband but a not so good as a Dad. I missed my girl but enjoyed seeing my wife again, not my wife and my girl's mother.

To be honest, it has been over 3 years now since I saw Melinda only as my wife.

Merci P'pa pour la table et le coffre a Eva-Mae.

Eva-Mae sur son tri-cycle.
