My new commute doesn't involve much surface street driving, so it seems more annoying now than it used to.
In non-gas price news, TJs baked jalapeno cheese crunchies are pretty darn tasty.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
We passed a station with regular at $4.25 on the way to church this morning, and I filled up at Costco for $3.90 (spending ~ $52). Costco is 5.5 miles from my house, and I did the math and decided we'd save a little money making special trips there, but not enough that it'd be worth the hassle of extra traffic and the long line at the pump unless we had a reason to go to Costco anyway.

Season 3 of Venture Brothers starts tonight. Supposedly this will be the season of no Star Wars jokes!
How can that be possible?! Maybe if they made inside jokes about The Tick.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I just paid $4.17 for regular. It's freaking me out.
Okey. Tidied up, laundry done...do I really have to do dishes? Please, no.
I'm thinking of having a housewarming kind of dealie, soon. Need more chairs.

Tidied up, laundry done...
I read this as TIED up, and thought it was an interesting overshare. Clearly, my brain is in kinky places. My body is jealous.
And I went and had pizza slices, even though I had just been to the grocery store. I mostly bought frozen food and those zone and odwalla bars, anyway.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
deep dish is tourist pizza.
No.
Chicago style deep dish is not like other pizzas that claim to be deep dish. Chicago style deep dish is a pie. It's not something you can fold and eat while walking down the street. It's something you eat with friends while having a beer and conversation (during the 45+ minutes you wait after ordering). It is a meal, not something that sits congealing under a heat lamp waiting for someone to order a slice. Chicago style deep dish is one of the factors in surviving a Chicago winter.
