Interesting!
Well, here's my twist on things...
The reason I drive 100 miles to work n' back is so I can have some time to myself!
I used to have a job 3 miles from my cave - with women bosses. 10 minutes later - I was home with another woman boss - my wife - and it was driving me crazy!!! Something had to give...
I tried driving 200 miles a day - 100 miles each way - but that took the frosting off the cake - driving 4 hours a day. So, I lived in a motorhome two nights a week. That is, I drove to work three days a week, stayed in the motorhome two nights a week, spent 5 days a week at my cave, and 5 days a week at work - with lots of hours in between!
Don't try figuring it out - it's true! The only problem is, I can't trust myself without some 'bosses' in my life. I either end up in jail, or a mental hospital, or both!
Anyway, now that it's a matter of survival, I don't know which is worse - my wife, and my other female bosses, or saving gas, e.g. money!
Personally, I will do everything in my power[s] to avoid having to move closer to work - because that means I'm also closer to my cave and Brunhilda!
I dunno, maybe I have Viking blood coursing through my veins...
