Punishingly Intricate

17 miles (anywhere from 25-40 minutes by car depending on 695 traffic).

Am a little burned from yesterday's sunny mid 80s temps. Today started with rain, which I think is stopping, and will be cooler still am not sad to be missing the weather event in Bmore. Hope the neighbors aren't too mad about our unshoveled walk. Today's plan is to go out fishing this afternoon!

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I looked and it is between 12 and 14 miles. However, on the bus it can take up to 2 hours, depending on the transfer situation.

My commute is about 3.5 miles, and takes me about 10-15 minutes, depending on how many school buses I encounter on the way.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

12 miles, 20 minutes on a typical morning in, 40 minutes home.

Except for the days where it's 0 feet from where I'd be spending much of the day anyway--that's 2 or 3 times a week.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

0.4 miles.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

This office has several mega-commuters, including one woman who lives in the Poconos.

The average commute for my zip code is 38 minutes +/- 10, which sounds about right - having this assignment so close to my house is an aberration.

I'm about 7 miles from work, so a 15 minute commute most days. Definitely beats the 77 mile/90 minute commute I used to have.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

16.5 miles by car. It takes 35-45 minutes to drive, about an hour by train (counting walking to and from the train stations) and about 90-110 minutes by bike.

This is the farthest commute I've had since a summer job I had in college. When work was in Evanston my commute was about 3.5 miles. 15 minutes by bike and about a 50 minute walk.
