What bus? My problem here is a lack of public transportation and fear & hate
of cars. It's obvious that LA hates people who don't drive and someone like
me who absolutely hates cars had no business moving here. I choose to live in
a city that I find more comfortable (and it looks like I'll be able to do that
soon). I made the biggest mistake of my life when I moved here and it will be
great to finally correct my mistake.
