Some days, it’s just not worth the 3 hour commute in to work

I’m a commuter. I drive from the north end of Colorado Springs, to the south end of Denver every weekday for work. Normally it’s about 50 minutes (20 minutes to get to the interstate, and 30 minutes on the interstate). Today, due to snow, it took a whopping 3 hours for my 50 mile commute. Not a lot of fun, but by the time I realized it wasn’t worth the trouble, I was closer to work than home, so I just went to work. Hopefully the commute home won’t be so long.

The one good thing was I got to listen to all of the podcasts that are on my iPhone. Currently my favorites are the Stackoverflow and Hanselminutes podcasts. I need a few more weekly podcasts to cover my commuting time. It’s a great way to pass the time because listening to the radio for 2 hours a day can get really boring. If you know of any good techie/developer/.net podcasts let me know.

I’m starting work on a music/software project and that I think is neat, and that’s probably what my next post will be about. Hopefully it’ll be soon, but who knows.
