The problem is I can't afford to bring everything back to NYC and I'm forced
to leave it here. But getting back to my home is worth it to me because I hate
living here so much.

I don't drive (I did learn to drive when I moved here 6 years ago, but I found
driving such a hellish experience that I quickly gave it up). I never felt
that my life was in danger crossing the street in NY as I always do here.

I find that much less frightening that attempting to cross Ventura Blvd. I'm
always amazed when I make it across alive. I've been hit by cars 3 times since
I've moved here and have had countless near misses.
