Very Quickie Update

The Data Entry stuff gave way to even lower-paying, more tedious "MC Processing". I'll describe them in excruciating detail later, but I do it because it is air conditioning; and also, I'm meeting new people and stuff... well, yesterday I walked all the way to work in 45 minutes or so, I'll see if I can do better today ( Read more... )

No, it is not that they're no street names,
they're plenty of street names, every little minor road has one.

It's just that people tend not to use them,
and they can be a bit unusual.

For example, "Pine Road, St. Michael" refers to a road which has several avenues perpendicular to it. You'd this these avenues would be called something like "1st Avenue Pine Road" or something, but instead, they're called "x Avenue Belleville". As as result, when you tell someone "you walk across Pine Road", they go like "Huh?" and you go like "The main road for the Belleville area" and they go like "Ohhhh! So that's what it's called! Weird!".

Which it is.
