No Gas

Maybe I’ve been living under a rock these past couple of days - what with school and working at the hospital. But I had no idea that we were having a gas shortage around here. I went to get gas after class and pick up a 24 pack of Pepsi. But when I pulled up to the pump there were plastic grocery bags over all the handles. So I went into the store and asked what’s up, and the clerk tells me that because of Hurricane Ike that all the gas stations are out of gas. All the BPS are out of gas, some of the Shells are out and a couple of the Exxons have mid grade and premium gas - but they are sold out of regular.

I hadn’t even noticed but station that have taken out the numbers from their signs that post the price per gallon are signaling that they are out of gas. If there’s no numbers on the sign - drive on by.

Well, it’s going to be pretty tough to get to the hospital from here if I can’t find some gas.
