Alh my commute to and from work will be less than 6 miles a day, so I'll be feeling some relief from the high gas prices.

Lucky for you... My commute is about 20 miles a day.

Actually if I drive, I usually cut it short to 10 miles a day

$4.50 today...the only good thing about that is when you're pumping your gas, it gets to $30 much faster than it used to back in the day. good for lazyness, bad for the pocket
