Runnin’ on Empty

October 6, 2007

Today was, by almost all measures, a lousy day. I won’t go into it all, because I do have to remember that something did go right.

I saw the gas light go on yesterday, or was it the day before? but hadn’t had a chance to get to the station in town that has the cheapest gas.

Tonight when Ethan and I were coming home, I saw the gas light come on and said “I really need to do this now.”

Gas Tank showing 16.968 gallons filled

Now I show you this not to complain about the atrocious cost of gas while gas companies make record profits.

No, I show you this after searching through my car manual and the Internets for an answer to this question:

“How many gallons does my gas tank hold?”

Answer: 17.

Whew. Well, at least something went right today.

    Now for you AND your mother we need to find a tune called "Running on Fumes". In her car, that would have been .9 more than the Camry holds!

    Good job!
