eh, I commute daily but it's kind of required. Theres really nowhere to park in downtown seattle in the daylight. 6pm or later you have a chance to find some street parking but it's all in use as an extra lane in most cases before then.
and yeah what sucks about my situation is I work 11-8 and the bus timetable is 7:54 and then another one at 8:24 at my stop, so I have to wait around for 24 minutes (more cuz it's always late) and then spend another 45 minutes on the bus to my transit center, and then drive from the park and ride another 15 minutes (not because of distance but just cuz of all the stoplights) and so I wind up home around 9:30 or later sometimes. By then i don't even feel like driving BACK to seattle for anything even though I know it would be more enjoyable than sitting around.
of course optimally i'd just stay in Seattle after work, but the shows and stuff usually don't empty out until 2am, and by then the buses just aren't an option for my particular commute.
