I need a nap.

I'm finally working on building up a bulkhead that should have been here three weeks ago. All the other structural components for the aircraft's forward fuselage are already finished and shipped out, except for mine. Now I'm going to have management wanting it out yesterday, every day I'm working on it. That bulkhead takes around five days for me to complete. I'll tell them I don't do well under pressure, it makes me have to go to the bathroom.

I've been kickin around the idea of a nap for a while but I need to change the oil in my truck. Sure it's only been 1,000 miles since I changed it but I've only been able to drive to work which is only 24 miles a day and I consider that a short trip.

I'm a little over cautious when it comes to changing oil and other fluids for that matter. I usually change my oil every 2000 miles and when I drain it, it looks like it came straight out of the bottle.

I think I just took a nap and didn't know it.

My commute used to be 25 miles one way, but now it's 13. Much better.

my commute in Austin was only 10 miles each way, but it took an hour each way due to massive daily traffic congestion

Austin traffic is just too much for this old country fart.

I do too, but Austin traffic has a personality all it's own, and it ain't good.

I know. Try to avoid it at all cost. It's bad from north of Austin to half way to SA.

That sucks.

Got the rims back, Randall. They look better than they did when I got them. They even repaired the paint chip I showed you earlier. Let me know if you want me to take some pics.
