As a counterpoint, I actually do enjoy my drive to work. The morning commute is probably my favorite part of the day. I avoid the freeway almost entirely and take the Arrow Highway for 15 or so miles, which of course makes it much better than gridlock. But in that time I get to jam music in my car/listen the the college radio around here (which I adore), enjoy the breeze (if there is any), appreciate the rain (on the rare occasion there is any), or blast AC otherwise. Plus I generally enjoy driving. I have a relatively fun car (Saab). It has the same engine they put in jets, seriously (I'm lying). So during my commute I get to hug the curves of that straight-as-fuck road littered with stoplights.
