Nothing's going to beat lower Manhattan where one street intersects itself.

"It's like the nexus of the universe!"

The main street I take to work (note: 2 miles and all of 3 roads not my address) is at least 3 in my short drive. Ultimately, it splits into a 4th (another one I take), merges into a fifth that then becomes a sixth. All within 3 or 4 miles, I'd say. (ohwow, take it further east and it becomes a seventh and splits yet again.)

One of the main roads in Tallahassee switches from Tennessee to Mahan Dr. The sign explaining why it's called Mahan is on the Tennessee portion and some people just refer to Tennessee St for the whole stretch. My old job was right near the intersection where the name changed and sometimes we'd get people coming in confused.

Also another main street takes a curve and turns into a new name. That one isn't too bad because there's an intersection and there's more of demarcation.

Then there's the street that ens at FSU and picks back up on the other side.

After Ronald Reagan died some state politician from Central Florida wanted to pass legislation that another major road be changed from Apalachee Parkway to Ronald Reagan Memorial Parkway (or something like that). It was extremely unpopular and never got off the ground.

Caught up.

In Delaware when I learned to drive, everything was Rte. numbers. I didn't know the actual names of many main routes.

Post office: I'm still surprised when a letter I drop in a mail box or at the post office gets somewhere the next day. I guess I feel like it should always take about 2-3 days like it did in my youth. When I was mailing bills as a first-time self payer of bills, I sent them out a week in advance of when they were due because I guess I thought it still took that long, which it probably didn't.

So, postal changes will not be hard for me to adjust to, I guess, because I never caught up with how fast things were actually getting delivered. And that fact that I can get mail delivered to my door and leave things for the postal carrier to pick up is really kind of super convenient. We should keep that.

Huh. I didn't realize Lisa Bonet had two kids with Jason Momoa.

I must've let my subscription to People lapse that decade.

More future supermodels.

Or, I mean, of course they can do whatever they want with their lives, but I am sure they will look like supermodels.

Thats kind of amusing, because when I moved from Pennsylvania to Utah, I was freaked out by having to drive more than 10 miles to get somewhere. The town 25 miles away was a Saturday excursion, and a trip to Pittsburgh, 50 miles away, was something you planned a week in advance. Now a trip to Salt Lake City, also 50 miles away, is something we'll think of doing in the evening.

In PA, there are roads with nothing on them! Like, you can drive for ten miles and see maybe two buildings. That doesn't happen in NJ where I grew up, unless you're on the Turnpike.

Stealing from a Toys for Tots donation box????

That makes a nice partner for a story I read last week about how theft of ponies goes up in the Christmas season.

Zoe Kravitz is gorgeous.
