So the imaging center I went to was super fancy. It was like a Burke Williams but with boob smooshing. They had private dressing rooms with swanky robes, lockers with the key on a wrist band. They had the lemon and cucumber spa water. AND emory boards in the private waiting area. And Saturday hours which is the best. They know their audience.
These girls have the most beautiful dresses. And so do I -- how about that?

Isn't their target demographic supposed to be one that eschews automobiles anyway?
I doubt it. The first one that is opened is pretty much on the road that feeds into the oldest freeway in the country, about 4 blocks before the freeway starts.

It depends on where you are, I think. In NYC, sure. In LA, not so much.

Punishingly Intricate
The TJ's I go to really has an adequate amount of space but is full of TERRIBLE drivers. But it was like that before the TJ's was there.

TJ's in NYC solves that problem by simply not having parking lots.
Same in downtown Chicago.

Wow, Kat, that sounds amazing! For still being a mammo.

I think this is the inherent issue. Costco has plenty of parking but people with shopping carts vs. people circling for spots = a battle of epic proportions.
Maybe it's just that people are stupid and when a place is busy, you are apt to see more stupid because there are more people present.
We can bike to our TJ's but the ride back, with an elevation gain of about 900 feet over a mile, is a bitch. But it would be nice -- ditto for our coffee bean, our farmer's market, my bank, and the local toy store.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
My accomplishment for the day was reading Divergent. Done. That was a surprisingly quick read. I don't have the second one yet. What should I read next and what should I save for jury duty? I've got stuff by Matt Ruff, Max Barry, Christopher Moore, The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, and the first Game of Thrones book in the TBR pile.

Yeah, -t, it was fancy. And their branding slog, "we see the inner you", made me laugh.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Literally! Hee.
