Rockford, fifth midnight, solitary confinement



Made it to Rockford, Illinois, 86 miles from the science museum in Chicago. Not going as fast as I did before, but I'm doing my push ups, etc, and working midnights. In fact, I'm on my fifth midnight. The first four I worked with two guys I really like. Nice to talk to. Now I have my last three with the most introverted person I've ever met. He says about three words the first hour and a half and then shuts up the rest of the night. I feel like I'm in prison in some third world nation, no human contact, and only bread and dirty water to eat. Of course, If I acted like my normal self, he'd probably take an axe to me after 30 minutes.
