hours in the sequoia, 8.15.23

i had to go in early for a biotinylation at work this morning. i got up at 5:50am and left the crib at 6:13am. at this hour, there’s usually little traffic. it was raining this morning so it was much different. i didn’t touchdown until 7:15am, which was an hour of commutes. i also got stuck behind a truck backing up into the lot across from cambridge pd for 5 or so minutes. everything was frustrating this morning. that’s when i came up with a new rule. it takes an hour each way to get to and from work. that’s around 2 hours total, which equates to roughly 10 hours weekly. the new rule is to work on music and writing at least as much as i commute during the week. an hour here and there doesn’t seem like a lot, but compounded, it adds up and it adds up quickly.

i can’t wait for the day i no longer have to commute.

shit, i can’t wait for the day i don’t have to put up with any of this 9-5.
