It's funny that the more busy I am the more I blog. hehe I'm sitting out in the cottage with more packing to do, but blogging while listening to "My Boyfriend's Back" sounds better. ;) "wa-oooo, wa-oooo ..." Anyhoo, I'm working on detailing my convertable--spent like 45 min.-hour practically perfecting the hub caps alone :) (just added my Curious George floor mats, Hawaiin flowers on the mirror and California surfer plate).
Speaking of cars, I thought I'd weigh in on the gas price discussion--IT'S RIDICULOUS!! Especially when we live in CA and, because of our state's clean air standards, our gas is specially made. In other words, Katrina has nothing to do with our climbing prices. And, don't give me the, "it's because of the world market," bologna. I'm thankful that a CA politician is working on uncovering this scandal, one he belives is truly "looting." Amen! I did find gas out here for as low as $2.89 (of course it was all sold out), and other places for under $3. I REALLY, REALLY feel sorry for the rest of the country, as well, and my prayers are with them. I can't believe it all...well, I can...but, I still can't. ( :) )
ANYway, I've got a long drive ahead of me tomorrow, but I guess the fact that God is in charge of my finances, the better gas mileage and COOLNESS of my new car will help my roadtrip up there be fret-free. :) Plus, my sister and roomie are heading up with me in another car (girl time ahead!) All's good. Happy trails!

Girl, that is the WEIRDEST benefit to living in CA: you are divorced from the rest of the country's gas production!
Here in VA, we have a few places that are as low as $3.19, but most places are running $3.29 or $3.39. I've seen some as high as $3.59!
But considering that the US refining capacity was running at 100% before Katrina, and we've gotten as much as 10% of the production knocked offline for a bit, I'm not particularly surprised at the amount of the price rise.
