It’s Friday Morning

How is your Friday?  Of course some that read this, browse over or just drop by might be in your evening time.  Welcome.  I can’t tell you how glad I am that it is Friday.  Monday started off a horrible week.  lol.  I ended up working 8am to 10pm Monday due to some sql server upgrades and emergency updates.  It wasn’t really fun but I can’t help that a drive or 2 went nuts.  Anyways, I’m sitting at work and for the first time in a long time, I’m just reading the paper and checking out some news articles, and mainly checking out the Fry’s ad to see if there are any good deals this weekend.  Browsing through the classifieds to check out the car deals, Harley parts and pet goods.  Sports, well I will just check online for those.

Here are some of today’s front page headlines:

  • Making their points, politely [debate coverage]
  • Leaders more optimistic that House will back bailout today [Our governments financial crisis]
  • Legal dispute may have broad effect on drilling [Grand Prairie, TX - Natural Gas drilling]
  • HPV vaccine rule riles immigration advocates [Some Federal Mandate]

And a couple more, and not that you are really interested in them, but since I’m bored and work is going to get busy shortly I figured I would add those in there to kill some time and why not!

This weekend, well no major plans really, just some work around the house and a soccer game to coach.  I might head to the movies Saturday night, not sure yet.

Do you have any plans for the weekend?

Have a good Friday..!!!

Gas Prices Stink

I can’t believe how fast gas is moving up and up.

Back in March I thought the prices were getting pretty high around here but here are the last 2 days worth of prices from a gas station next to the highway.

4-21:
Reg. Unleaded $3.48/gallon
Middle Unleaded $3.63/gallon
Super Unleaded $3.78/gallon

4-22:
Reg. Unleaded $3.51/gallon
Middle Unleaded $3.66/gallon
Super Unleaded $3.81/gallon

Now I’m sure that some people that read this would be like, wow that is cheap or is cheaper than my area, and I get that. But in the past 5 years I have been in Texas it has NEVER been this high. Simply outrageous!!!

I’m going to key an eye on this and see how well it fluctuates this week and will report back.
