I'm 33 km from my workplace, by road anyway. (I take the train.) Timewise, it takes me about 1h 20m each way.
Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Two hours! But that one's only twice a week. Then twice a week at half an hour. Then out of the house for two days. Although the SO has half hour commutes an additional three days.

I'm about five or six miles, but it takes me half an hour because I take the bus.

My commute varies from about 50 yards, to 100 miles depending upon the current contract. Pix has about 35 miles each way.

Now, I live very close to my work now (less than 2 miles), but before I lived 9 miles away.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Ten miles. Driving can be anywhere between 20 minutes and 2 hours, bus is 50 minutes or more, and the train is usually about an hour. I keep thinking about getting a bike. If I can get myself into shape I'm thinking that would take about an hour.
