Fuel Fumes

Filling my car up with gas these days is a little disorienting. Somehow I just can't wrap my head around the fact that it's over $3 a gallon so I'm always saying it wrong. "Yeah, I paid a $1.45" or "I saw it for $2.32 yesterday" when of course, I didn't and it wasn't. It's not that I'm outraged by the price. Prices just went up so quickly that I got knocked off balance.

And then there's the pumps that require you to hold them the entire time. What's up with that? Why can't I clean my windshield or take silly photos while waiting for my car to fill up?
