The Most Boring Man in the World?

I've been neglecting this blog for quite some time and I don't feel bad about that because no one reads it anyway.  But, today I'm stuck in a motel room, in Laredo, Texas while my truck is in the shop for repairs.  So, I thought I'd spend a little time attempting to write something I thought was interesting enough to post.

This has proven more difficult than I thought it would.  This is because I lead such a dull life.  I drive a truck all day and sleep in that same truck at night.  I only get out for a few minutes to give someone some papers, get some papers from someone or take a shower.  I cannot tell you how uneventful my days are.  The funny thing is, I actually like it this way.  I am wallowing in this abyss of nothingness.  I find it strangely comforting, the silence and confined space.  I've found a way to be happy in my nutshell and I don't like leaving it.  When I do leave it for a few days, I just want to be still and quiet.  I want to be mostly left alone and not bothered with the troubles of the world.

Don't get me wrong, I do enjoy spending time with my friends and family.  But, I don't really like having to go out to crowded places to stand in line to hang out in a loud place and eat food that I could cook better for myself at home.  Yes, I've become boring.  Dull even.  But, I'm okay with that.  At least for now.
