Don't forget the pumpkin beer

I'm gonna hope Nate saves the beer for when he parks the rig safely at the compound...not that he couldn't handle it.

I mean, doesn't every Evil Genius weapons-manufacturing and Lord-knows-what-else compound need a "guard Yoko?"

Have to be a Sadie vs Yoko death match first.
Winner guards the compound!
Loser… well, the loser is dead.

Still driving. He doesn't even care if I'm hangry.

Well, now we know why he's an "evil" genius. Oh, the humanity.

Seriously. It's going to be about midnight when we get home. Haven't reached Asheville yet.

You'd never be able to get that rig up the narrow gravel roads where I am otherwise I'd tell you guys to crash stay here for the night.

I mean, if I’m the guy driving on this venture the only thing I’m thinking at this point is, “Effing alternator! Effing tire! What else could possibly go wrong!” “Come on, (Insert name Nathan calls his truck here).” “We’re within striking distance.”
“Come on.” <<< something to this effect is on repeat in his head.
To some degree his will alone is keeping that truck together and running. <<< this is how men think in impossible to control situations. It’s that or just give up and walk.
You might be talking to him and there may even be a small part of his brain he has left operational to interact with you and give what appear to be normal coherent answers.
But he’s not there anymore. He’s holding that sweet ride together.
He will deal with your hunger, anger and the real world when he gets back.

Hopefully the remainder of the trip is a quite uneventful one. And you pass real close to a good place to eat and need gas at the same time.

Just think of the luxurious camping trip you can go on now?

If Nate had a RAM you guys would be home already

Well...I figure I'm fluffy enough to just let Sadie gnaw on me till she's full and sleeping.... or she'll get one solid bite in and pass out from the beers in my system lol

Does that mean I win lol

 

[Cap’n Smudge]

Close enough.

What is a Hangry? Shouldn't hungover and angry morph into a hungry?

 

[Casinostocks]

Your roadtrip is teaching me some U.S. geography. I Google every place that you mention. Thank you

Hunger pangs = Hangry?

 

[Retired UPS Driver]

Hangry; comparative adjective: hangrier; superlative adjective: hangriest
bad-tempered or irritable as a result of hunger.
Example:
"I get very hangry if I miss a meal"

Early 20th century: blend of hungry and angry.

Just pulled in

 

[Nathan the Machinist]

Sometime between pulling off the interstate and getting home the last tire let go. We were going pretty slow I didn't even notice it.


The tires were rated for the weight on them and were not that old. They were properly inflated. But I had a bad feeling about them. I had some replacement tires (and a spare) on order but they did not get here in time for the trip.

They're here now.

Anyway we're home and no major mishaps. Just a bad alternator and a couple flat tires. And Jo is hungry and angry.
