Gas is how much?!



Occasionally, in the past 3 years of city living, there have been times when I've missed having a car.

Generally this happens on the days when I don't want to take an hour bus ride from port authority to go visit my mom or when I have several bags of groceries to carry home.

However, after spending some time in NJ this weekend with my peeps who have cars, I will never feel that way again.

The gas prices are shocking! $3.72!!! That is just insane. When it costs over $50 to fill up a Honda accord, something is just wrong. I remember filling up my mom's nissan altima in high school for $10.

Everywhere I went this weekend, this was a huge topic of conversation. The general consesus is that its going to get a lot worse and never better. Thoughts??

It must sound as if I just awoke from a 10 year coma, but I feel pretty removed from the gas situation living in NYC sans car.

Meanwhile, there are still people out there buying these huge SVU's that must be well over $100 to fill up. What is the point people?!

MADNESS
