Happily enough i'm at the end of a tank of gas, so it'll be nice to refill. It's been about 10 days probably since the last. With my little trip, it might be more like 3 weeks or 4 before the next.

before i started working at the new company i walked to work. only had to partial fill twice per month due to driving to san diego for comic-con meetings.

now i have to partial fill three times per month. getting 30 mpg isn't great, but it isn't bad either.

$2.99 at the Shell by my house.

It's sad to think we are actually very happy about it being under $3 again...when only a few years back, it was $1.change

when i drove across the country in 2004 i was taking pics of gas prices being $1.45 in other states when it was $1.80 or higher in california. most frustrating.

Yeah. Ours were $2.65 on Saturday. I haven't seen that [low] price here in quite some time, although it's been a LONG time since we went as high as $3.

I'm jealous. I'm paying $3.42 here.
