So I’ve been waking up later and later lately. Cutting it ever closer to not making it to school before the bell rings. I’ve been blessed with a traffic-lite commute (and on the 110?!). <\/p>\n

My luck has made me wonder what will happen when our economy turns itself around. Will a better Los Angeles labor force and lowered unemployment rate mean an increase in my traffic? <\/p>\n

Selfish thoughts, I realize. And yes, I’m willing to wake up an extra ten minutes earlier if it means a few more of you are also gainfully employed. Feel like the Freakonomics dudes should totally write a chapter about this.<\/p>\n

Tell people this is awesome:<\/h3>
