Tell me about your commute.

My commute can be divided into three parts, which vary slightly depending on what bus I catch:

1. Leave home and drive about 2.5 miles to the Park n Ride. It's your typical drive through suburbia, and takes 7-10 minutes depending on whether school's in session. I typically listen to NPR or try and catch the news on my normal music station if the timing's right.
2. Hop on a bus to downtown. I pretty much zone out to the world on the bus and either read a book, catch up on blogs on my phone, or check in with the happenings on ChiefsPlanet. Bus ride's about 15 minutes.
3. Get from the bus to the office. Depending on which bus I catch, I then either take the shuttle on the 16th Street Mall down to the office, or I walk about 3 blocks. Either way, it takes about 5 minutes. If I'm on the shuttle, whatever activity I started on the bus typically continues. If I'm walking, I usually think about whatever will be waiting for me once I hit the office.

That's about it. If I catch the buses right, it's about a 30 minute commute, but I only drive 10 minutes of it, so it's a pretty pleasant commute most of the time.
