Re: You know you're addicted to FIRST when...
You know your addicted to FIRST when.....
you decide to go to a local regional right after work and got lost in the process but was determined to get there reguardless of how much gas was in the tank.
This was a true incident Short and Simple Version.
I work in the BX (NY) decided to go to the NJ Regional The trip itself was pre determined to be max 1 1/2 hrs and I had a lil over 1/2 a tank of gas. What had happened was i wasn't paying ENOUGH attention to the exits and ended up in PA, so instead of the trip only being 1 1/2 hrs it ended up to be 4 hrs and I ended up in having a lil over 1/4 tank left and to add to that instead of fueling up in NJ where gas is cheaper I almost ran out of gas 2 blocks away from my house which only took me about an 1 hr to get to since I live in SI (NY) What I do for FIRST =)
you re-read the entire thread starting from where you last posted to the current post to see what you've missed
