I just got gas for $3.87!!!! Whoo hooo!! How awesome is that?
And how SAD is it that I'm so excited?
Which leads to my question of the day: how much is regular gas in YOUR hood? Please give your location as well.

I feel ya. Gas is about $3.60 right now in MN, which I am sadly excited about, too.
When I started driving 12 years ago, I refused to buy gas if it went over $1, which was no problem because gas was usually in the $0.90 range. The price has pretty much quadrupled in 10 years. It's Total CRAP.
holland southside meijer $3.84 north side meijer $3.98. cuz you know it cost more to ship that extra 2 miles! Remember when $10.00 got you a half tank of gas, a pack of smokes, an iced tea, and a candy bar!?! good old 1998
We gassed up in Indiana on Sunday for $3.77, which has us absolutley GIDDY. It's still over $4 here in the north suburbs of Chicago. I didn't leave the house at ALL yesterday, so I'll let you know the exact price later, but when we came home on Sunday, $4.09-$4.17 was what we were seeing.
Regular gas price today is down to $3.96! It's so exciting to see a 3 instead of a 4. And yes, that's really very sad, as Mr. Van Ark would have said :-)
Renee - go register and vote this year. very important! Plus, I have a feeling you would vote for the same person as me :).
Jen - gas in my little hometown and your old stomping grounds, is $3.72 and dropping...hopefully. and I need more info now on who to vote for since someone brought up a topic that i have to investigate so you are not alone now Jen :).
PS: LOVE THAT SONG! She has an amazing voice. i have this on my ipod and play it whenever i get down in the dumps.
See, no. I can't vote. Because I pay NO ATTENTION to the candidates. I hate politics, I have no clue what any of them stand for, I don't even know which *party* I'd lean towards. I know it should, but it really doesn't matter to me. I believe they (mostly) have good intentions, but they can't follow through with what they promise. I can't stand watching them "debate" and the personal attacking that is involved is ridiculous. So it matters not to me; they're all assholes. It's not like I'm one of those people who CARE who wins and doesn't vote, or doesn't vote and then bitches about who is in office. I know, I know. My dad goes crazy about my not voting. John's never voted, either.
You & John should vote because the decisions politicians make effect you and they effect Brent.
What if a president was elected who sent the US to war and made Brent go fight? This happened to a lot of families over the last 4-8 years. Don't let it happen to you or to them any longer.
If you don't care, then do it for your friends who do care. Do it for me - vote Obama!
McCain said recently that he's never used email or the internet. We can't have a president who doesn't use the internet!
LOL, Anna. I know, but the thing is, they ALL make decisions that they say they won't. *sigh*. I know I should care. And John LIKES watching the debates. I want to stick a fork in my eye when they're on. How soon do I have to be registered, though? Cuz I actually tried when we lived in Indiana and it was too late to register for the presidential election. I'LL LOOK INTO IT.
i was the one who said I needed to research issues more, but:
McCain doesn't use the internet????? Go Obama!
LOL. This is the first year I've even thought about voting Republican and it's mostly because of the war. McCain, being a former POW, wouldn't make the decision to go to war (or, in this case, to stay over there) lightly. He actually knows what the hell he's talking about. And I like that.
Here Nee. You could do it all right here

You know, cuz we ACTUALLY USE THE INTERNET. LOL
And the deadline for IL is 10/7. Plenty o' time.
this will be my first year voting as a Floridian. I wonder how we'll fuck it up THIS year. =-)
LOL Jen. Thanks for the link. And I hadn't heard that about McCain, either (the internet thing) and frankly, am incredibly incredulous (that sounds funny together) over the fact! What a dillhole!
And you bitches jinxed the whole gas thing. It's $4.06 again today. WTF?

Renee: if it helps, I'M the only one who still needs more info before deciding. Looks like everyone else knows which way they're swingin'.

Last night I got it for $3.69 (Holland)
The time before that I said to the guy "I really want to hug you right now cuz gas is under $4" - even tho I know he doesn't set the prices.
