If you ever happen upon (or invent) that teleportation system, lmk. Stop making me compromise, real world!
(Though I heard once of a couple originally from Lapland where the wife found a job on one side of Finland, the husband on the other, and they lived in the center. She thought a two-hour drive was all fine and dandy and quite short on balance.) ...Damn. That's a LOT. I somewhat enjoy a long drive, but only because I'm not required to do it often. For a few years, my mother had a 2-hour-ish commute every day, but it was by rail, so she could sleep through it (a cheat that only works if you're going between a city and another city.)
The great outdoors is good for you, but all the outdoors nearby involve walking past people. Yep, that was my problem. Tremendously unhelpful to the mental health situation. And also the exercise situation, which just compounds things. Urgh.
