Fill up my car please!


Breathe easy dude!

I know. The fuel price hike is absolutely atrocious. RM2.70 a liter? There is no way escaping it. The moment the rumours spread like wild fire a few days ago, I knew that a lot of people are going into cardiac arrest.

Dear husband was one of them.

"Great! There goes my dream of driving Toyota Wish this year. " he mumbled and whined whilst munching his dinner last night.

You see, he had just settled the last instalment of his Proton Wira last month and was contemplating to grab an SUV or MPV this year. But all that wishful thinking went down the drain the minute the news of newest fuel price was made known last night.

"Did you know that before the latest price hike, I had to pay RM67++ for a full tank in my car and that it will last me only 5 days before I had to refill again? And now I have to pay like RM94++ to get a full tank in that same stupid car and it still lasts me for 5 days...blah blah blah...." he continued his frustations.

So, for the next 30 minutes or so during dinner, he had berated every single person (responsible) in the world especially George Bush for bringing misery to every man on the street.

I've never seen the man so hissy until last night. Sheesh.
