I think looking into truck driving would be worth it, if you do in fact enjoy driving/driving jobs. Plus, all that time on the road may give time to think about your story or other books/stories that you could possibly be writing. Maybe buy a cheap tape recorder for ideas on the road?

But whatever you choose to do, good luck. You’re not alone, the economy sucks and even those who are overqualified have a hard time finding reasonable jobs so certainly don’t take it personally.

Thanks for the shout out. I don’t know about the pulling out at the last second, but truckers do tend to get over without much thought for other drivers, because they are being paid by the mile and don’t want to lose their momentum. Especially on an incline. If they delay you a few minutes it won’t come out of your pocket, but it would come of our theirs.

And if they’re not passing faster, it’s probably because their company governs their truck to only go so fast, so sometimes passing can take a while. Sorry if any of us held you up out there. Hope it wasn’t me.

Glad to hear you two are back home and all is going well. Hope you don’t stay so busy that you can’t squeeze in a little writing from time to time. Sure would like to find out how that story ends.

Also, this post is exactly what I think and I love you and am glad we are home & glad we are together.
