We are a transient people...

Just so you know how ridiculous southern california can be...
I went to visit my friend scott on tuesday. He lives about an hour away give or take a few minutes. He goes to my church, which is in North Hollywood, and we live about equidistant from church. So here is the ridiculous part... From my house to his I took the 126.  After we hung out I had to go to work (which is only about 15 minutes from my house), but I had less than an hour to get to work on time and it would be well over an hour if I took the 126 back. So instead I took the 5 to the 405 to the 118 to the 23 to the 101, driving 80 the whole way there. I made it on time by the way. The ridiculous part though is that in one day, just to visit a friend, I drove over 100 miles and on six different freeways. It's a good thing my friends and I carpool to church because at the way gas prices are headed, I could never afford to drive in southern california, let alone live on my own!!!
