Thursday Threesome

::Payin' the bills::

Onesome: Payin'-- Hey, 'they' tell us fuel prices are down! What are you payin' this week for a gallon of gas?

Looks like about $2.15, give or take (using GasBuddy).

Twosome: the-- heck you say! There's an election coming up here in the US; do you plan to vote? No, no need for your soapbox. ...unless you want to {g}.

Yes, I'll vote. No ideas really who I'll vote for, although I'll probably back the governor rather than his opposition who is a flaming dipwad. There are several local issues on the ballot, too, but I need to do some reading before I make a decision.

I'd just like to 'soapbox' for a minute, though: people, think! Support your schools and libraries, ok? Don't use your vote as a weapon against a stupid teacher your kid had/has, or against the fines system that charged you $14 for overdue fees last year.

Threesome: Bills-- Which bill(s) do you absolutely dislike paying? ...and by that I mean the one you "have to-have to" but wish you didn't have to. Tuition/books? Power? The newspaper?

I just canceled the local paper; I can read what I need online now. ;-) And I really disliked paying for it, too, since it sucks so bad. [Amusingly, however, I cancelled hte paper earlier this week, and I'm still getting papers in my driveway in the mornings...sigh.]

Otherwise, I don't have a strong feeling about this subject. Beast pays the bills now, because I was getting a little too mental about our financial situation. I should probably take over some of them, but he is very German and methodical about the whole thing, so he doesn't want to give up any of it!
