Whew. I've made no secret of the fact that I've gained weight since I started working in Stamford - an average 100-minute commute each way. So now they say driving longer means larger waistlines. At first I thought it was a thyroid problem. I knew my commute was hazardous -- but I just thought it was the whackos on 95 and the potholes on the New England Thruway. Good to know my love of pasta, fast food and chocolate chip cookies don't have anything to do with it. God forbid.
