What's crazier?

What's crazier? Gas $4.99/gallon for premium, what the hell it's $4.89 for standard. So, I get exactly 15 gallans because my debit card is limited to $75 each gas pumpwithdrawal. What's crazier: $5 gas or $75 limits. Oh, both piss me off. listen

Update (06/07/08): Tonight it was a $65 limit on a pump that sells $8 car washes!!! C'mon people, think about this stuff when you set up your pumps...

I, by the way, hate the 75 dollar limit. Some stations I've been to recently have raised the limit to $100. I know it's the limit because I can't fill up for $100. Which is crazy in and of itself.

Fields of Lompoc -- Evening Clouds Approaching

Fields of Lompoc -- Evening Clouds Approaching Originally uploaded by VagabondJim Not much to write today. I t was a hectic day at work because we had a manditory "team bulding event". Everybody had to leave the office by 11am. Don't get me wrong, these are fun events -- but they seem to coincide with days that are awful for me. Sometimes they kill my chance at getting ahead of the L.A. traffic for the drive to Lompoc. And, they occasionally involve doing things that I would rather do with Janice -- and then she's bummed too because we either miss something she'd want to do or she hates the fact that I have to re-do something (which leads her to believe it must be boring me -- usually not a true assumption.) So all-in-all I have mixed feelings. Maybe if they weren't always on Fridays. Anyway that made for a busy day. One without much to share with y'all. I did make great time driving tonight; 2:57 including about a half hour stop at Costco....

The Pace of Lompoc

Snails on a Cactus Originally uploaded by VagabondJim So yesterday I rose at the crack of noon-- actually 11:30. And, like all of last weekend hopped in the car to head to Taco Loco #2 for some of the world's best breakfast burritos. The camera came with me, as it will pretty often going forward. Whilst waiting for the burritos I wandered to the end of the parking lot. It was filled with prickly pear cactus. 20 bad pictures later I discovered that there were snails on several of the cactus. 1 bad picture later I had a shot of them. I tend to crop pretty severely and that's what made a bad composition into a reasonable photo like this one. Anyway, "finding snails crawling on a cactus while waiting for a late breakfast of burritos" kind of strikes me as representative of one of the gears Lompoc runs in. (The other is the frenetic destruction Janice manages to get me involved in when she tears down a wall to remodel. Me with a pry bar, a hammer and covered with dust ...
