The traffic is horrible and I need to drive to San Diego which is 3 hours aways. What could I be doing that would a better use of my resources? I've already worked all day and my brain is fried from that. I don't want to do anything difficult or challenging. I don't care about the news and I'm not into Facebook or social media. This is interesting and entertaining. So, o ask again what should I be doing? Listen to music. I am used to traffic here in India. My workplace is 25 Km away from my home and it takes me 1.3 hrs to reach there. Traffic, Signals and all.So it's 2.6 or 3 hours a day spent in car driving or stuck in traffic. Have no choice but to put on music and relax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hated the traffic to the point I could not take it anymore. 23 years of sitting in traffic in LA is like Hell on Earth. Back in the 90's, it took me from SD to LA 5 and a half f-ing hours !!!!!! Right now the map says there is a 1.5 hour delay for my 3 hour trip to SD. It sucks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had 26 miles from my home in La Mirada, CA to my work in Beverly Hills. No matter what time I was leaving the house and no matter what time I was getting back home, one hour and a half to two hours, each way. Screw that! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nack Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Damn !! And I thought only I had the problem of traffic. Looks like it's prevalent everywhere.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amy3 Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Another thing is that I travel alone a lot. I've been by myself since Monday. Here I can talk to like minded people. I seriously doubt the lady and her kid sitting next to me want to talk about sex. I'm a quiet person and I generally keep to myself. I don't like bars or clubs cause they are too loud. I'm faithful to my girl so I'm not out looking for a piece of ass. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amy, is that yellow cloud above downtown still there? Of course. But not as bad as before. A light Santa Ana is coming in this weekend so it will be back. Nice Dusty haze for everyone to enjoy. 😷 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
