Football and Gas...

Well, I'm sorry I haven't posted anything in a while.  We have been busy with work and other things, but nothing too exciting has happened, so I had nothing to write about.  We did go to the Auburn vs. LSU game last weekend.  We enjoyed seeing my family (Mom, Jamie, Whitney (Jamie's girlfriend), Uncle Henry, Aunt Leigh Anne, Abby, and Sarah), Daniel's family (everyone!!!), and a few old friends.  Lane rode to Auburn with us and we enjoyed spending time with her.  On the way we saw a motorcycle run into the back of a stopped car...not too pretty....I have to call 911, that was a new experience, but it looked like everyone was okay.  It was a good game...even though we lost.  We did better than I could have ever expected, so I can't complain.  Now, after this weekend, with Alabama at #2, LSU at #3, Georgia at #11, Florida at #12, Auburn at #13, and Vanderbilt at #19, the SEC looks pretty good.  It just stinks that we have to keep knocking each other around!  Hopefully we will work out these kinks in our offense and beat a couple of those teams I mentioned before.  

Anyway, on to what this post was really suppose to be about.  GAS...  Mom and Dad (Crawford) were suppose to come visit us this weekend, but on Wednesday we had to cancel because there is NO gas anywhere in Charlotte.  They were afraid they would get stuck here longer than just the weekend.  Daniel and I were trying not to panic like it seems the whole city is doing and felt fine with our 1/2 tanks of gas (each). Well, after driving back and forth to school all week and then going to church this morning, my car is almost down to a 1/4 of a tank and Daniel's not far behind.  So Daniel decided to get on the phone and call gas stations rather than driving around to find one (and using gas).  Well, just a few minutes ago, he called a station in South Carolina down 77, and they said they have 16000 gallons!!  He is headed to the station now!  Hopefully at least one of us will have gas now...I guess we could carpool to work with each other.  Who knows??  

WAR EAGLE!

My friends in TN are running into the same problem! Have been for a week now!
I agree that it stinks the SEC has to beat up on each other, but I guess that is how it goes. I don't mind Auburn pulling through on any of the teams you mentioned... but Alabama! Hope things are good!
