I am oblivious. I’ll admit it. I went to the post office Monday, to mail some recruiting info - to Louisiana. And I couldn’t figure out why the postal clerk looked at me funny when she said Louisiana. Now I know. Admittedly I had been working all day, and I don’t usually keep the tv on when I’m at work. If I do listen to anything while I’m working, it’s usually business related, and doesn’t have commercials-or breaking news. I still haven’t heard from the girl I mailed the info too. I’m praying she’s ok. I really haven’t written much about Katrina, because it’s just so overwhelming. I don’t know what to say.

Anyways, I’m oblivious. I went to the dentist today. Everything was normal…except gas was $2.99 and there was a lot of traffic on the roads. It was $2.49 on Monday around 1 pm when I went to the Post Office.

I came back from the dentist an hour later, and there were cars lined up outside the gas station, 20 deep. Someone was on the radio saying it was so bad he could barely get through town in his tractor trailer, and had 5 near misses. Apparently there is a rumor going around that there is a gas shortage. I didn’t know a thing about it til I heard it on the radio. It really is wild. They were saying on the tv that apparently there were rumors that they were going to shut down gas stations in GA tomorrow. I guess that would have scared me if I’d heard it too. It’s just wild. There were at least 20 people in front of one station I passed, and every gas station had lines at all of the pumps!

I’m glad I didn’t need gas today
