Truck's fine, but now I'm breaking down. Let's see, 8 hours of sleep total in the first three days of the trip (Two on Friday, Three on Saturday and three on Sunday), lack of sleep caused by allergies and sudden ailments, stomach sickness for the bulk of the trip (likely due to lack of sleep), sore throat on Sunday that caused my inability to sleep, then, after getting an 8 hour night last night (amazingly), I end up getting a bothersome head cold.
I have 12 hours of driving starting tomorrow, so this damn head cold had better die. Honestly, my body is really battering me this trip. I've made it once before, but this time I'm garnering no cooperation internally. Thankfully, I am better rested and the stomach and throat pain are gone. I just have to get rid of this cold and I'm golden. Maybe. Either way, this trip is a huge pain in the ass. Guess it's all for a good enough payoff, after all. I'll be able to make a suitable living off the potential work opportunities in the town I'll be staying. Too bad I hate the landscape of the area. Always a compromise, I guess.
