There's nothing quite like 6 wide at 80mph through Grady Curve!But the other mode is 90 miles per hour and three feet apart. That's the one I can't deal with anymore.
The trick is to live here but not be part of the rat race. I have a less than 2 mile commute one way and it takes me less than 7 minutes. You just have to learn the patterns of the city. Are the Braves playing? Stay north of Marietta. Are the Falcons playing? Stay out of midtown. It's 6o'clock on Friday night and you want to go out? Order in or cook. But having Piedmont Park all to yourself or going to the Aquarium off peak hours? It's amazing. Just like anything else, you gotta know how to game it.
