Gas prices are ridiculous
Today I filled my gas tank up at $2.69 a gallon. It cost me $57.00 to fill up my 2002 Ford Explorer. I love my car, but damn it costs a lot to fill that beast up.
On Monday I needed to fill my tank and in the morning gas was $2.47 a gallon. I was running a little late for work, so I figured I would fill it up after I got off at 1:00. I should have known, it went up to $2.69. I was hoping between last night and today I would catch a break and it would have gone back down a little, but no such luck. So, I was stuck paying $2.69 a gallon.
I want to go to visit my SIL, my nephew and my new baby niece tomorrow, but they live about 45 minutes away. I can't believe that I had to debate if I wanted to drive out there because gas is so friggin' expensive. (Of course, I am going anyway).
I know they say that it is expected to be over $3.00 a gallon, but seeing those prices just make me want to get sick. (And it isn't from the morning sickness...which I still have by the way).

I know what you mean! Here it has hit 2.73. Unbelievable! I thought for a while it would stay low, like back down to the 2.30's or 2.20's, but nope, it hasn't. It's crap that it has gone up this high, and it takes my husband about 35 to 40 just to fill up his mid-size car!! I would feel worse if I were you, and had to fill that big old explorer!! lol
Isn't it even crazy that we think of "low" being $2.30??
Have a good visit! The prices are insane. I'm going to go broke!
AGH, I know, they suck. I'm so glad I ended up buying my little car last year instead of getting something bigger like I thought about!
Yep we got the price hike up here too. Our's are $2.80/gallon right now. It's just stupid. I want to go see my parents, who also live about 45 mins. away, but gas prices are just really suckin! My little 9-gallon tank takes me over $20 to fill now!
What a crock!!
I want a hybrid car!
So how far along are you? When's the doctors appointment? I wanna hear about the new baby!!!
