I'll be happy to be done with pizza delivery. I have done it for 16 years and am so tired of it that I am selling my house and moving back home so that I can go to college full time. The problems I have with it are: the pay, the hours, the lack of benefits, and the people I work with. None of them are very intellectual and I guess that is to be expected in such an environment. However, it leaves me with no one to relate to and socialize with. I'll just be happy to make a decent salary and work Monday-Friday, 40 hours a week.

Oh, second real tank today: I broke the 43 mpg barrier! Granted this included 150 miles of highway driving, but still a good number.

(Note: the car sees 100% city driving and is EPA rated at 37 mpg city)
