Gas vs. Mac

[nelyanaphonexia]

WOW! I really consider myself lucky! I drive a VW TDI (clean diesel) Beetle (55 MPG-hwy)!!! I got it back before the US banned the use of diesel cars. (C'mon people, diesel cars are clean now! My car emits the same as a regular gas car) But I still pay for it with the price of diesel. Its around $4.60 at the cheapest. Some days it can go up to $4.90. Ive seen it over $5 in other parts of the US. (I took a road trip to Kansas and I have a friend in So, Cal and Georgia and they both report how much diesel is from time to time) It's ridiculous. I work a minimum wage job and I'm still in school (university) and I'm planning my wedding. EVERYTHING adds up. OMG.

This is what I really want: YouTube - The Air Car
THE AIR CAR! YAY! Too bad no one is gonna go for something like that, eh?

It really is too bad that I'm moving over seas in Dec. after I get married and I have to sell my little Beetle. They don't sell them anymore as far as I know. I will miss her!

I just don't have the cash to bring her with me. Maybe I will just get a bike and use that as my main transport. I like cycling anyway.

oh - and I've been bad the last two months, I have actually spent MORE on MAC than GAS! It's horrible, especially when you spend $100 on MAC. I need a better job to keep my MAC habbit. It's like freakin' heroin.

I think global warming is a big issue that would should be very concerned about.

Look @ how many women out there are having children these days.. what will be of the environment when all of these children are our age?

We need to get over the laziness and starting finding other means of transportation.. leave the car in the driveway.. walk, take the bus, cycle.. do something other than polluting the hell out of our environment.
I have a car.. and I have a bus pass... (which I pay 200$ a month for - but its bloody cheaper than gas!) and I'd rather take the bus. Driving is costly, its getting very time consuming and its exhausting.. I'd rather have someone else do the driving for me...
OK and the MOST important thing is.. the less I drive.. the less money I spend on gas.. the more I spend on my lovah.. MAC. Makes it all worthwhile.
