Seriously? Seriously? Seriously?

When I got into my car this morning the sky was beautiful and overcast. Oh how I love a gloomy June day! I was in an exceptional mood and was anticipating good things to come of this day. And then in happened…the road that I need to drive through to get to the freeway that leads me to work was under construction! Why!? Is it too much to ask for Ventura County to take a break from construction!?

I took the detour that led me through the boonies of Oxnard in bumper to bumper traffic on some random country road. Eventually I found the freeway. On the freeway I was greeted by cars that decided to brake for apparent reason. As we climbed the Conejo grade the people behind the wheel continued to break and forget to signal as the cut each other off. This type of greater LA area traffic mayhem I will not miss. I am looking forward to a city with good, clean, working, accessible public transportation.

What got me through this gruesome drive was a great song of the ambient electronic nature by The Age of Rockets. The song, titled “Worth the Wait”, has an opening line clearly stated my exact thoughts, “I’m waiting for the dinosaurs to return and ravage the traffic of morning commutes”.

Wouldn’t that be cool to see? If only…
