My issue is if I move closer, I would live in the "hood". Yea, 45 minutes one way sucks, but I actually like driving, and I tend to drive slower, so the frustrated ones are the ones behind me. I turn up the radio, ignore the cellphone and drive nice and slow. Trying to get better mileage reduces my stress. Some times I switch back to my old habits, aggressive fast driving, and I can feel my stress go up. It does help that I don't HAVE to get home at a certain time, and I leave early enough that I don't have to drive fast to be to work on time.
