Commute If You Can
I have been commuting for the last couple of months or so with a co-worker who lives a few blocks from me. We alternate days, and we drive in the carpool lane. We talk and bitch and moan and complain and laugh and make fun of the other drivers. It's totally soothing and relaxing to sit in the passenger seat and watch the other traffic go by for a change. It's a relief to have someone else to talk with, someone who works for the same boss and who can feel my pain. Someone who is not afraid of not being PC and constantly polite. Someone who swears as much as I do. It's totally cool. No bridge tolls. No more road rage. No more screaming and fist-pounding. It's so much better. Do it if you can.
