Default 2005 Accord LX 4 Door Burning Oil?

No oil leaks just had the oil changed 3 weeks ago, and verified it had oil. Now the oil light starts blinking, and look what a surprise almost NO OIL..

something is wrong. if it was burning that much oil you would know.
Either it wasn't filled after the ail change or it really is leaking somewhere.
I have a very hard time believing that an 05 is burning any oil

Check to see that the PCV valve still has the little plunger in it.

It's there, and if theres a leak I can't find it anywhere. I put oil in it today and drove around for a little while and it seems to be ok. The real funny part to this is the lights around the radio/ac area shut completely off at times. I am getting to the point where it's time to trade her in and get something other than a Honda. I have had almost every Honda, and never had problems in the past with a new purhcased and unmodified Honda. There's a list of things that should have not been wrong with this car that have been a thorn in my side.
