{personal} self portrait friday #6

I live in Portland but the majority of my work is in Corvallis…which means I drive. A lot. For the past 6 months I spent most of my weekends commuting and while most people wince when I tell them how much I drive back and forth, I actually love it. Sure, sometimes it gets frustrating having to plan an hour and a half drive into your schedule and then hitting traffic right at the moment when you really (and I mean really) have to pee. But for the most part I look forward to that time — my 90 minutes to rock out to some epic music while the drivers around me pretend they’re not laughing at my ridiculously sick moves; my 90 minutes to dive into my collection of audiobooks; my 90 minutes just to stop and think.
