Last night, Tito refilled the gas tank while we were in Libis. Yes, we filled up at the gas station with the hanging pumps. How high tech is that! HeHe. Anyway, he started talking about how expensive the gas is nowadays and that a full tank now would cost P2,000! Holy moley!
Yes, last night, the little light bulb in my head finally lit up. I completely understand now. P2,000/week is just crazy. "I told you so" would be the right phrase to throw at me. I don't harbor any more ill will towards those who keep telling me that San Mateo is "too far." I have accepted the truth! Hallelujah! LoL.
But of course, much love and respect still go out to those who have made the trek to the boonies to see me, pick me up, and/or drop me off at home. You guys are still the coolest people in my book. If I ever get a pad in Ortigas, you guys get first visiting rights. The softies can wait. ;P
Speaking of the boonies, we didn't have internet connection for the past five days. Apparently, someone had stolen PLDT's copper phone cables (to sell). I didn't think I would ever use this phrase in the Philippines, but dang, that's just plain ghetto. Tsk. Tsk. I hope it doesn't happen again because I seriously had major withdrawals this past week and lugging Papa around the metropolis is just too stressful (says the praning girl). Me and my big problems strike again. HeHe!
