there and there again

You know what's not fun? Not fun is sitting in traffic for half an hour to travel the three blocks from the turn-off from the shops to your own street. I swear to god, at one point I was ready to dump the car in the nearest side street and go back for it after peak hour had cleared. When I did have to go back to the shops to buy eggs for the cake I'm making, it took me less time to walk there and back than it would have to drive. God, I thought Sydney was bad, but Melbourne traffic is just impossible these days!

Grange Road is always pretty evil, there is nothing like being at uni for eight hours then spending 50 minutes sitting in a traffic jam on Grange Road thinking it would be quicker if you got off the bus and walked back into the city, I hate that bridge over the Yarra at Kew just past Heidelberg Road on the Chandler Highway where the traffic goes from three lanes to one, that is always fun in peak hour.

Usually it doesn't bother me because I'm on my bike. It's rare for me to be not riding and I can just zoom past the traffic. It's only when I drive at that it hits home just how hideous the traffic is these days.
