The Big DumpTruck

I have a headache right now, and it won't go away. I don't believe it's anything that will kill me, so that's good. I don't have time to die right now. I have lots of things to do and to see. One of the the things I need to see is the office in my rear view mirror. [ba-dum-bum]

I put seventy dollars worth of gas in my car today. And I am actually nervous about it lasting until next week. This weekend we will be keeping any and all road trips to a minimum, I can tell you that. It had literally been years since I've had to worry about buying gas. I don't like to have to worry about it. I can definitely see the appeal of buying one of those very fuel-efficient little micro machines - at one point in time my 22mpg sounded pretty decent to me, for a mini van, but now I want at least twice that. But I'm not in a position to buy a car right at the moment, not when mine is running well, etc. etc.

Sorry, I shouldn't bitch. There are people dying in cyclones, earthquakes, crane collapses, train accidents and the like. That would be worse than paying $4 a gallon for gas.
