Underpass Closure

goddamn, they close the underpass by my house and it's the biggest hassle.

the underpass is where 132nd St meets 405. my house is just on the east side of 405, and north of 132nd.

when that road is closed and i'm working at fred meyer, to the south, which is right under that top 405 emblem between 124th and 116th St, which are under the Totem Lake Mall.

instead of just taking that road that straddles 405 on its west side, i have to take 124th St to 124th Ave which goes right by Totem Lake, then cut up past the Totem Lake Mall and 132nd St to my house. that may not seem like much, but the lights on 124th St are some of the worst around.

when coming from the pool from the north on Lake City/Bothell Way to Simonds Road, which dead ends to 100th Ave, i have to cut through the "new" safeway parking lot to Juanita Woodinville Way, and take that all the way up to 160th St. Once there, i have to cut into Kingsgate before 124th Ave, and wind through all the residential streets on down to the lower 405 emblem that you see just under Kingsgate Park.

if i forget to do that, i have to go all the way down to 124th, head like i'm going to the Totem Lake Mall, and do like i do from Fred Meyer.
now that one's a big pain in the ass.

it's so retarded that there's nowhere to get across the freeway from 160th St on down to 124th St when 132nd St closes.
that's 36 fucking blocks!

i know no one really cares about my plight and the daily wrath it brings me, but i just thought i'd put it out there to relieve a bit of built up frustration.
