Hi Toony!
Yes, I still commute an average of 5 hours every day
I take Amtrak, not my car, and honestly don't mind it most days (I find the train pretty relaxing and I just watch dvds on my laptop or read), except for the trouble it gives me life-style-wise. But even when it just plain SUCKS I do it for my dream job. You're lucky with your commute time! Before I got my dream job at the beginning of this year, I lived literally across the street from my place of work. Boy, I look back on that now and think how spoiled I was!
Take care,
Nyn
