The vast majority of my friends and family live in the deep south. I'll gladly have a 45 minute commute in order to be 5-15 minutes away from the people I spend my free time with.

Why? Because I'm forced to go to work. It doesn't matter how badly I "don't feel like driving" to work, I have to go and I will. If I have 30 - 45 minute commute to hangout with friends or family, it's very easy to say "I don't feel like driving" and thus staying home and slowly losing that contact. It happens all the time with my friends who live in the north. Our "south group" hangs out multiple times a week where as we only see the friends who live in the north a couple of times a month cause it's such a hassle.

I guess I value my social life over saving some commute time.

Anyways... Gates N' Stuff...
