RN, after driving to San Diego to meet up with NT, Costacat and Escapee, I filled up the tank and was grumbling about $3.17. It went up to $3.19 and sat there until recently and yesterday I think there were still a couple of stations nearby holding at $3.29 (this is for regular unleaded) but I'm thinking it cold be higher when I venture out today. I'm in Orange County, CA, near the coast.

RN gas goes up every summer because that's when they know that people go on vacations. If anyone saw the Today show this morning and saw the bit on Dubai (sp) knows how rich the oil countries are. We need to get off the oil.

RN, not su much a lack of oil, but refineries cut back on the amount of gasoline they produce. And they often seem to time shutting down for times when people want to do more driving.

RN I am totally in awe of the faith some people have. I know this lady that just lost her son. He was killed when he was struck by lightning last week. I would have been absolutely devastated ... heck, I was devastated and Josh wasn't mine. I just finished talking to her and her husband and they have such a calm peace about them. They know things happen for a reason and that they will be together again. Instead of me consoling them, they consoled me. I look up to them for having that faith to sustain them.

RN, Lady, I agree, there are some amazingly solid people out there.. RN.. well no surprise, today the cheapest gas I saw was $3.35 ($3.29 at the same time yesterday). I think the highest for unleaded regular was $3.49. I pass 9 gas stations on the way to Curves.

RN yay Cheri! Fun isn't it? Good luck Nick! RN I am cracking up. Last night on his way home from work, Darren called me to tell me he saw my mom and her friend walking down the street and he was going to stop and offer them a ride so he would be a little late. When he got home, he was rather puzzled, he said he pulled up and called my mom over, asked if they wanted a ride but her friend (who's been helping out a ton at my aun'ts house and knows all of us pretty well) wouldn't come anywhere near the car, kept arguing with mom to come on, and then just kept walking. Darren asked me if the woman was mad about something and I said I didn't know but that was definitely odd behavior. This morning I mentioned it to my sister and a while ago she called me back laughing. She said she talked to moms friend awhile ago and she felt just horrible. She didn't recognize Darrens car and has night blindness anyways so she couldn't see who was in the car and mom didn't say it was Darren. She thought it was some man going to kidnap (or worse) them and she was trying to hurry up and get to a phone and call for help, LOL! I don't think I've ever met anyone whos been scared of Darren, hehe!

RN: Just got this email from the boss! Hi Everyone, I am on my way for a weekend industry meeting in Las Vegas sponsored by Tagdata. I meet with other business owners and discuss what is happening in the retirement adminstration business. Traditionally, Michael sponsors a Cinco de Mayo party but he is out of town. Carrie (not one for missing a party opportunity) has somehow got possession of the BEI credit card and will host a party at a location to be determined this afternoon at 4:00. You are all welcome to attend and celebrate Cinco de Mayo. Have a wonderful weekend. Bob

RN, the ex is on his way to pick Travis for the weekend. This will be the second time he has seen Travis since Christmas and the other time was for less than 24 hours. RN, I don't know if I'll know what to do with the weekend to myself.

RN, LOL, Scooter, so true. While he is allegedly on his way here, he hasn't arrived yet. RN, Escapee, we call him the sperm donor also, but not around Travis.
