trying to get home for Halloween

I'm in Woodland California waiting to be unloaded. I got really pissed off when I got this run. I was on a run to Lodi California that I just couldn't make an ontime delivery. So they had me meet a driver in Nevada and swap for a load going to Hermiston Oregon. 500 mile and just drop at the customer, and I would have had that done by now.
Well as soon as the driver shows up with the trailer, I get a message to wait for another driver and swap again for this 300 mile run that I have to sit under while being unloaded at 130 am.
Now I realize that I have a better chance of getting home from here then I would from NE Oregon, but it's the fact that I'm loosing 200 miles and the time to get this unloaded.
But at least there's one bit of good news. If I ever get out of here. I've got a load waiting in Sacramento, going to Fontana. 4o
