Yo, yo, yo, Party People!!! My little brother's moving to Georgia!! Woo hoo! I just got off the phone with him, and he said that gave his notice at work in W-town and he'll be moving here in May ... possibly when my folks are visiting.
How fun is that?! Trent and I have been wanting to move closer to Family, and now Family is moving closer to us. Okay, so he'll still be about an hour away, but that's way better than a 7 hour drive.
Speaking of driving, is anyone else pissed about the high gas prices? It's about to hit $3.50 a gallon here. It cost me nearly $50.00 on Tuesday to fill up my Camry. Of course, since Trent drives about 4 times farther (or is it further?) to his job downtown than I do to the university, he's been hinting that we'll need to trade vehicles soon in order to cut down on gas costs. And that means I will be giving up the comfort of my little car for the terrifying experience of attempting to park the F-150 in the university's tiny parking spaces. I'll have no chance at tenure, regardless of my actual job performance because I will have dinged up all my colleagues' vehicles with my poor parking skills. What we'll save in gas money, we'll be paying in repair costs to other university employees.

Yeah Andy! I am happy that you will be closer to Trent and Katie. Congratulations on your new job. Way to go. Honor Louise
Dear Katie and Fiddler,
Our gas is $3.39 a gallon. It is still less than a gallon of milk but not by much. Yesterday my neighbor lady said, "We are all going to die poor." Yep! That's the way it looks. Honor Louise
Yeah for Andy! It will good for him to be closer to family. BTW, our gas is currently $3.45, was $3.25 when I filled up. went up the next day,thank god I filled up when I did.Soon no one will be able to afford to go ANYWHERE! Back to the horse & buggie days, sigh.
