Anyone else ever notice how, when gas prices go up, so does the rate at which you consume your gas?
Seems like, way back when, when gas was under 2 bucks a gallon, I could go forever on a tank of gas. Now, gas is somewhere around $2.40 (at least here, in the Upper Midwest!), and I need to "fill 'er up" weekly (or better). When prices were around four dollars, I felt like I needed to re-fill as soon as I left the gas station! I think they must dilute the expensive gas, or something...
Okay, so I'm not really a conspiracy theorist, but sheesh! I'd really rather spend that money on a fab pair of shoes, you know?

I think you may be on to something!

ReplyDeleteshoes vs. gas---I pick shoes. But then again, if I'm not going anywhere, who will see the shoes? Quite the conundrum.
