good evening y'all! this is a very local post to los angeles but i'm quite sure everyone understands having to deal with a shitty intersection! ever since i moved here from back east - there has always been one zany intersection that drives me
absolutely nuts and seemed to be the
perfect breeding ground for a nasty accident!
when you're going north on
cahuenga - out of hollywood and towards the valley - as you round a corner on the 'cahuenga pass' - it intersects with
odin (plus there's exits from the 101 freeway) it's hard to explain but basically you're driving on a street with two lanes - the people coming from the other street don't have to stop - they just drive right into a new third lane - yet if you haven't driven there before you would assume that you have to stop which causes weird confusion plus people drive pretty fast around that corner - when you're heading back towards hollywood - the same drama occurs - not good times!
so earlier this afternoon i was heading over towards burbank (to pick up a dresser at
ikea which of course was a pain in the ass piecing it all together - i kept calling it a 'mess in a box' but it
finally came together!) so there was work being done at that intersection clogging up traffic - when i came back - i realized they were putting in stoplights - which
totally made my day! if there was one place where a stoplight was needed around these parts (besides
britney spears' driveway) that was top priority in my mind - i was all 'i need to post this to popbytes' oh happy day - it's the simple joys in life that makes it all worthwhile! if you've driven through the section i'm talking about (there's a map located below) i'm positive you'll be just as thrilled as i am!
i hope everyone is having a terrific weekend - i'm resting up for the week ahead - i've got not one but two nights of seeing
spice girls - i decided to go
both wednesday & friday night - i'll be in
total spice overload! popbytes over & out for tonight...xxoo!
