I have a 40 min drive if traffic is good, an hour or more if it's bad.

How long is everybody's commute? How long is a normal commute?

In DC, it was about 30 minutes in the morning and 40 or so (occasionally more) in the evening. It wasn't too bad. When I first moved to Seattle, it was about 40 minutes each way, but that was walk-bus-walk, and I enjoyed that quite a bit. Now it's "roll out of bed and walk upstairs to the computer", which saves SO MUCH TIME OMG.

So, in semi-related news, there's a job a level above me at my company that involves only working from home, and not hardly any travel. I've done most all the stuff required in previous jobs. Normally, you kinda get picked as things come up and as you start on a new project (and sometimes people would do this job for a while and then as the project finished, go back to a regular job like mine). Now they're making it an official job, and making people apply...and it's open to everyone. I don't think I want to apply right now (I still like the travel, and just started this new project, and the work you have to do isn't mostly my favorite) but it's totally something I could see doing in the future. I'm just worried if I don't apply now, they won't HAVE openings in the future..argh.

Apply. If it is offered, you can always not take it, but learn whether they think you would be a good fit and if not, what you can work on so that if it comes up again, you can strengthen up on anything lacking. And even if they do offer and you decide not to accept, you can suss out what your strengths are and build them up, so even if it doesn't come up again on your schedule, you can lobby for a job like it either with your current employer or another.

Depending on which office I'm working in, my commute is either 45 minutes or about an hour fifteen. The long part of the long commute is the walk from the subway - 8th ave to 11th.

I had mac and cheese in a park with tom, trudy, debetesse, and debetesse's friend. Now I'm on a train back to my parents' in nj.

Yeah, what sarameg said.

So, my two hours today was on the high side. Maybe I'll chalk it up to weather, and hopefully tomorrow will be better.

I am so weird with mine, because it's either super long, or super short. Over the course of a week it probably averages out to, well, average.

Hah, now I want mac n cheese, even though I'm quite full! Though I would also just like to go hang out in a park with friends, that sounds awesome too!

Hil is wearing tenty pants, pass is on.

My commute to work is about 20-35 minutes in the morning depending on traffic and buses. (Not counting time standing line at Starbucks.) On the way home it's a 55 minute walk or a 30-45 bus ride.

Now that university is out, both rides are a little shorter. Once grade school is out, it will get even faster.

Hil is tearing minty plants, pass it on.

I need ice cream.
