Then your friend who got gas for $2.19 is very lucky. The lowest in the town i live is $2.38 and it has dropped 4 cents since last weekend.
And for McDonalds i don't know about Britian but they have begun taking over the Republic of Ireland. Its so odd going to a McDonalds (when you are from the states) that is housed inside a structure from the 1400s or earlier.
Evil, evil McDonalds but when its the only food around you just have to eat it. Actually i haven't eaten at a McDonalds since i got back from Ireland four years ago. The last one i believe was in Northern Ireland (so that is the uk) the invasion has begun.

The weirdest thing I have ever seen was the golden arches sign right in front of the Giza Pyramids. The one in Cairo is actually on Pyramids Street. So out of place.

RM 1.50 where I am from, Roughly 1 U$D is RM3.80. 
The gov's gradually removing the subsidization though, it's costing them RM8mill per year. The just rose the price from RM 1.40.

Yavanie, you're kids are incredibly cute!!!
About the gas price thing. When I went to work this morning it was $1.96, when I came home 6 hours later, it was $2.14. I'm such a dumbass. I should have got gas this morning, but I was running late because as usual, I overslept (I'm not a morning person, and teaching Pilates at 8:00 on Saturday morning practically kills me. I don't understand my clients that actually want to take an 8:00am class, but the class is always full...) so I got gas on my way home and had to shell out considerably more cash Not to mention that as I was standing there filling up my car some fool came up behind me and snapped me in the ass with a rubberband. He said, "I just could resist, you have such a tight ass." and then just walked away  I pretty much just stood there with my mouth hanging open. I don't know what I didn't occur to me to backhand him. Must be the oppressive heat and humidity making me sluggish. Now that I think about it though, it's kind of funny  |

Cute outfits and family Yavanie! Cosplay is so much fun sometimes ::TQ wonders where her star trek uniform is::
They are better than many of the outfits I saw at the grand slam convention last year. I *love* the white tree emblems!
