Oh, the wind

Yesterday, I pumped up the tires to 40psi and cleaned the MAC air cleaner on the old truckster, so I was eagerly awaiting the gratifying boost in fuel economy.

But then, I had to drive north into a 30mph wind. I couldn't get out of third gear and still hold highway speeds.

Some things suck.

And not in a good way.

I cannot believe...

...that you can think about the weather at a time like this. I mean, it's bad enough that I ran out of Captain Morgan two days ago, but tonight I ran out of Southern Comfort as well, and I'm down to my last couple ounces of Jack.

Heartless bastards.

It has turned chilly

I almost feel moved to poetry. Almost.

It was supposed to be in the 50's today. I experienced mostly the 30's. Brrr...

I think I need new shocks in my truck. The old ones are getting jouncy and squeeky. But they only have 55k miles on them, and damnit shocks should last longer than that. But who knows. Everything is so cheaply made these days.

Poetic weather

Sun
Moon
Then sun again

The wind
It blows
Then calm again

Warmth
Cold
Then someone's icy cold toes on your back in the middle of the night you bastards

I like
The weather
Whether or Not you do
