I almost threw up when I heard the folks in the media predicting that gas prices this spring will be $3.50 per gallon. This is not good. There are so many payments left in my payment book, it still looks like an old Sear catalog. If you are too young to remember what that looked like, you will not understand the lame attempt at humor.
When I think about retirement, I only have to look at reports like that to know why it is vital to maintain my truck, keep it washed and waxed, and baby it-- even though it's a gas guzzler.
It is difficult to believe that it was 75 degrees F here yesterday. Washing my truck was not an option for me. I did not have time to wash it before work and it was almost dark when I returned home. I should have taken my wash bucket to school and had my students wash my truck. What? NCLB? Pacing Guides? High-stakes testing? It was 75 and they did not want to read about cells.
