People panic and holiday demand. It will be back to normal from other sources by early next week but higher cost.

What kind of truck do you have?

What's the range on a fill up?

2,300 miles?

I wished that I had read this yesterday!!!

Didn't know.

Now? I cannot find gas anywhere in my area! And I have an outcall tonight and frankly, I'm not sure that I'm going to be able to make it!!!

UGH. I drove around, with my last bit of fuel, for over an hour and just got back.

Even waited in line at one place. A 7-11. Figured I'd better bite the bullet and just get the gas anyway possible.

Once I got up to where the gas tanks were, they were all out. It was just a traffic type of quagmire of sorts.

I don't mind staying home for a few days. But I have stuff to do! And men to play with.

Not sure what is going to happen. Any advice for us with gas issues???

Just keep driving and keep looking - but of course for some folks you will run out of gas.

I'll just take uber or lyft.

I drove around as much as I could, with the limited fuel that I have.

uber is a good idea. Might have to just do that.

Was speaking to an old friend this morning and she mentioned the gas situation and I didn't know what she was talking about!

Now, I need some of that pink stuff!

Know it's temporary but why does it have to happen today???

AAAAARGGHGHHGHGHGHHHH!!!!!!

Maybe I should just order some delivery pizza and call it a day.

Damn. Bummer.

I don't drink but today, gosh a glass of wine just sounds lovely!!! Just daydreaming (while doing a bunch of inner bitching).
