I wish I could be at home
, but i'm stuck at the rig till tomorrow. Hopfully I can make that drive back to Abilene from Midland. As a matter of fact hopfully my relief can make the drive from Abilene to Midland. It's -4 with the windchill here. I woke up this morning, and had to call up to the rig floor "what the heck is all this white stuff on the ground? What did y'all do last night?"

Had the truck plugged in last night... Went out this morning, started right up. Was unplugging the block heater when I hear a zap and look down... One of the wires broke and arced. When it did it caught on fire a little bit and is now ruined completely. Oh yeah and my glow plug relay is dead so tomorrow morning I have no block heater or glow plugs. I will be taking video of how horrible ot starts tomorrow morning. Lol. IF it even will start

Yep, sure did. Optimas kept cranking though. I went and grabbed a new glow plug relay tonight at work. Got to the shop, jumped the current relay for about 20 seconds, and it still took about a minute to start. LOL
