February 27, 2012

Outside Temp: 32 F (it was in single digits this morning, then suddenly was in the 30's... hmm)

What I cooked today:
Nothing, since I'm in the hospital with Ryan, I had cafeteria food for breakfast and went out to dinner with Patrick.  So spoiled.

Update:
So, we are still in the hospital, but Ryan is trying his best to convince the team that he is not sick.  He was running around, jumping up and down, laughing and playing all day long.  I guess he's convinced them, since they are intending on discharging us soon.

Our current plan is to still head out to Seattle on Wednesday.  Since we have the appointment set up, it seems silly to put it off.  We are only on one IV antibiotic, and it's only once a day.  Really, really easy.

Patrick came into town today to get the oil changed in the car.  I vividly remember a Jiffy Lube on Margarita that was $19.99 for an oil change.  Granted, we never actually just got an oil change, but that the base price.  Apparently, either oil prices have gone through the roof, or things are just more expensive up here.  The base price for the oil change was somewhere in the $40's.  Wow!

As for regular gas prices, I was sitting here smugly two weeks ago, when people started complaining about gas prices.  Ours held steady at $2.99 a gallon up until about a week ago.  Suddenly, the prices jumped.  Granted, I can't complain.  Gas is $3.25 a gallon today, but it was $3.20 yesterday.  Oh well, if only we weren't planning a long driving trip!
