Only one more day of work...only one more day of work. Yess! Today our gas price actually went DOWN! Unbelievable! We went from $2.99 to $2.79. Needless to say, it was a madhouse. Luckily, though, I spent the day putting away our load. It was great. I only had to ring for about 30 minutes....otherwise I was out on the floor and not dealing with people. Glorious. I also convinced my manager to sell me some food from the store at the wholesale price. If you ever go to an SA, go to the rollergrill and look for the chicken and cheese "Tornados." It's a mexican food that's in the shape of a hotdog...but like in a fried tortilla shell. They are absolutely AMAZING! As a customer they cost $1.05 each. I think a box holds something like 20 - 30 Tornados....I was able to get the box for $12.05. AMAZING! Now, if I can get them down to Wartburg without them thawing too much, I'll be good. They're going to be perfect for a late-night snack.

In other Wartburg news, I had some good news and some bad news from one of my roommates today. I called him while at work because he had called me at about 3 a.m. a couple nights ago as he was walking home from a party in our suite and was wondering when I was coming back to the burg. So he was telling me about our set-up and I found out that we don't have a big T.V. in our main room. That's trouble. Watching Sports Center is a must for our room. The good news is, though, that they never put anybody in our room as the 6th person. You know how I mentioned a few weeks ago that one of our roommates was backing out of living with us, leaving an open spot and the probability of some random weird person getting put with us? Well it didn't happen. So now we have 5 people with 6 bedrooms. Hmmm...what to do with that last open room...what to do, what to do. hahaha...glorious!

Speaking of which...I'm moving in Sunday Afternoon. You know how gas prices are amazingly high right now? Well we decided NOT to take two cars down to school this year, even though all of my stuff won't fit in one car. Nope, instead we're renting a U-Haul trailer. For $10 bucks. What a deal. It's an open trailer, so hopefully it won't rain or anything, but we should be good to go.

I'm still a little aprehensive about going back, especially since I already have homework...goshdangit....but I think it's going to be alright. I hope so, at least.
