How much commute is too much? How bad is your commute?

I left my house at 6:23am this morning and arrived at my destination, 40 miles away, at 8:07. Fortunately, I only have to do this once a week, and it gives me plenty of NPR time to catch up on current events, but it still pretty much blows and is a total bummer for the environment.

What’s your commute like? Any horror stories?
