A reason why Canberra sux

#24.  To buy a 10mL bottle of paint costs 50km on your car and four and a half hours of your life.

That's one reason I dislike Canberra.  Stuff is just so far away.  You can't just do anything "on the way home".  You have to dedicate a whole day to it.

And of course by the time you actually get home (in this case after 4pm), you're too exhausted to actually do anything, and the day may as well be over.  *blip* there goes half my weekend :(

*sigh*
