Your response to rising gas prices?

I've never had a vehicle in my 22 years of driving that got good gas mileage, when I hit 20 mpg i'm pretty excited. But my norms most my driving life have been 15 to 18 and that's all I can really hope for and have the type of vehicle I need to do what I need it to do. So, long ago I had to accept that gas was always going to be a real expense for me and i've budgeted accordingly. I also find that crying while I fill my tank helps a little and when gas prices creep up, wailing like a baby while I fill up eases the pain a bit more.
