I need two things: to find my nail file, and to stop absently poking at the knot on the back of my head. Is there another word for it, one that has fewer other meanings? In Jamaica we call it a coco, at least on kids. Which, ah, does have other meanings too, but none of them actually have anything to do with physiology.

Regular gasoline dropped to $1.999 today, after peaking at $3.099 five weeks ago. Yay for cheaper gas, but WTF drives these prices? It sure isn't local demand.

Also weird is that diesel peaked higher--about $3.50--and has stayed higher--currently $3.109

What are prices like for you guys?

That Etch-A-Sketch art is bananas, beth.

JZ, I'd tell erinaceous about that fabric, were I you.

I'm impressed with myself that I have literally wasted the entire day, but a little sad that I really need to do work. Oops.

2.68- 2.78 in western NY for gas,

And... the fabric has Hello Kitty? In a discreetish pattern?

PICTURES!

I'm paying $2.50. And glad of it. The $3.50 and up was nuts. I clearly recall paying $.79. A bit ago.

I'd really love to find a bluegray chinese silk embroidery fabric. I love the color of my comforter cover and sheets (deep red and a plum) but I've got this teabox in those bluegray papers, and um...it's lovely. Which reminds me, I still need to frame the 30 year old korean watercolor I have. I just have to find a place that can mount it on a peach silk that won't damage it more than it already is.

So many plans....

We'll see if there are pictures.

I never had to pay over $3.10 for premium here, but on the other hand, I'm not paying much less than $3 for it now.

Regular peaked around $2.99 about a month ago IIRC, maybe $3.09 near the interstate. Now it's around $2.69. I think it was around $2.49 pre-Katrina.

Geez Louse-- Rochester NY has much higher gas prices than it should.... Except because there is almost no public transportation, I guess they figure they have us over a barrel...

Gas was insane around here, as I think I've mentioned before. I guess our pipelines originate in the Gulf. Plus, there are (as far as I know-since there was talk there should be) no price fixing laws, so it was all over the map. But still, I was paying more than CA?! Whoa.

The odd thing is that right now, the closer to the beltway you get, the cheaper the gas gets. This is 180 from the usual.

pictures, pictures!
