I'm in my 4th week of driver training with my mentor. My body clock is so messed up, I'm not sure if I am supposed to try and go to sleep again or stay awake for the night.

She's such a good mentor, she won't tell me.

I'm supposed to figure it out on my own as our training time together winds down.

Earlier, we did five deliveries this trip and it involved a night, a foggy morning, a farm and now it's night again.

We are 90 miles from our final destination.

Tonight, she let me run my clock out with 10 minutes to spare to teach me a lesson.

She was right, and I won't risk that again.

She's a very good teacher, the Mr. Miagi of truck driving: quiet, unknown, unassuming, skilled, and powerful.

She deserves several articles and more.

I wish I had two brain cells left to run together to write them.
