where were you 02/06/78

[Van]

I was working the graveyard shift at a gas station while in college.

I worked like a dog for 15-18 hours straight that night and next day filling plows.

When someone finally came to relieve me, there was no way I could get home. (10 miles).

I hitched a ride with a guy with 4 WD. He could only get me within about 2 blocks of my parents house. Their house was only about 100 yards from the coast (quincy bay). That 1-2 block took me about 1/2 hour literally crawling over 8 foot drifts and falling down buried in snow. The wind was incredible,, driving snow into my face all the way.

Good thing I was young then !!!!!!!

I was near total exhaustion when I finally made it to the house.
I think I slept for 15 hours after that.

Had the rest of the week off from both work and school though.
