temptation
Since I take the Bay Bridge to get to work, Interstate 80 is part of my daily commute. I-80 starts on the Bay Bridge and goes almost all the way to New York City, and it is a secret ambition of mine to someday drive the whole thing, end-to-end, in a single trip.
Some mornings, I am tempted to just keep going.
Not to escape my life, particularly; it's a pretty good life, all things considered. But to do something really out there, chase a crazy dream for once. I'm not so good at that sort of thing. I wish I were.

I've done that. Just driven some road to see where it goes, not really caring if it's the long way around or takes some weird detour. I have a very good sense of direction (it's my superpower), so I never really worry about getting lost -- I can always find my way back to something familiar. My mom loves to do the same thing.
You're right about the high cost of gas making that harder. Although gas has been so expensive in CA for so long that I barely even notice anymore.
