So much for that

I just realized I spent $340 and some change just on GAS last month. In 30 days, I spent $340 just on gas. I know I'm repeating myself here, but to me that's outrageous! It shouldn't be legal for companies to charge so much for a commodity that, I'm pretty sure 90% of people would agree with me, is a necessity. That is more than a third of my paycheck, just spent on gas. Unfortunately for me, there isn't much I can do about this. I have absolutely no control over the price of gas, and since there isn't a competitive market for it, I can't really "shop around" for the best price. Especially living in California, let alone the capital. I couldn't imagine living in L.A. or San Diego. Yikes!

So, this means that if I'm unavailable to do anything, be it going out to dinner, or pretty much anything that costs money, don't be mad at me. Be mad at the gas companies because that's where all that money is going.
