I haven't been caught in traffic for the past 2 weeks or so, expcet for yesterday, I swear, peoples brains must be connected to the wiper switch, they can't operate at the same time. And you'd swear living arround here that each time it snows is the first time NOVA drivers have ever driven in it because all hell breaks loose.

My dad moved from fairfax to winchester because of it and its quite nice out there where he lives (quiet, lots of land, no traffic). I dont particularly enjoy it either, and I'll be moving next year (although the traffic will suck just as bad).

He thought the 12 other places he's lived was going to be better than Nova and he ended up back here. You can't escape.

I like the winter weather around here but I wouldn't mind summering somewhere a bit more temperate. One day, when my Time Warner stock goes through the roof, I will keep two residences!
