Living in LA means crazy, unpredictable traffic. I always give myself extra time and end up getting to appointments early, so I use that time to do things I don’t want to do at home. I have a mini keyboard to practice piano, a red light mask, tweezers, dental floss and list of random tasks and emails to knock out while I wait.

You know what, I’m also not in a rush myself. I feel like there are already so many people rushing out of the 5-7 PM traffic, so I‘ve decided not to partake in that anymore and from now on I will drive at the same speed as the car in front of me (I will maybe change lanes if they are doing 20 in a 45). We are taking our sweet time, appreciating the lost art of listening to the radio on the road or to my favorite albums/artists, remember things I have to do when I get home while at a red light, maybe take a selfie because the break lights from the car in front of me has the perfect shade of red that make me look pretty, get lost in my thoughts, get excited about the thought of preparing a bath later that night, stare at the birds perching on the power lines, maybe roll the windows down and light a cigarette. We need more less-angry people on the road.

I don’t care if you’re early or late to whatever you’re going to, sitting in your car and being on your phone or finishing a song and starting into the void is the spice of life.

I’m obsessed with audiobooks, and 1.8x speed is my sweet spot. It’s fast enough that I don’t get bored, but not so fast that I miss anything.

They are huge and ugly but after traveling, there is nothing better.

If you have a baby, this company makes lullabies that are covers of existing hit songs. From Beyonce to ACDC, you can just pick music you already like and hear beautifully crafted lullaby versions. My son would always fall asleep to the Beatles and Coldplay covers.
