Gas Guys

Why is it that my van always needs gas on the days that the gas prices jump up ten cents? I swear that it happens to me every time. And, lucky for me, it was below freezing, too. I just love standing in the freezing wind putting gasoline in my car. But, mostly I love the scary looking guys there that joke with me about how warm the Spring is here. Just for fun, to keep my mind off the freezing cold, I memorized the clothes and faces of the guys in case I hear later that there was a robbery. I mean, with gas prices climbing higher, you really never know what someone delusional enough to flirt with me at the gas station will do. I drive a mini-van, for heaven's sake! (But, I was wearing my four-year-old sweater, so it's possible that they just couldn't help themselves.)
