I've been listening to my new Ipod. Sometimes, I read a book or play games on my cell phone. On the way in, I'm usually asleep!

Radio Radio Radio....if the radio in my car was off I would literally fall asleep at the wheel.

If I took the train I would probably fall asleep

make fun of other people...ooops, did I just say that?

when I commuted from LI, I used to sleep, but when I lived on the upper East side and had to get down to Union Square, I just read a book.

Here in London, it's really cool because there's this free daily paper that everyone reads on teh tube and when they're finished, they just leave it there, so there are always copies of that around to pick up and read if you have nothing else. Some people think it's litter, I think it's smart!

I recently moved but at my old train station I became friendly with other commuters so we used to chat in the mornings. I actually have a lasting friendship from that commute!

Now that I have no friends anymore to chat with at my new station, I read books and then when I get my magazines in the mail...I take a break from the book and read them!

In the evenings I attempt to read and then usually fall asleep.

I just started commuting from LI this week and I'd love to know the answer to this question as well. I thought I'd catch up on a lot of reading, but so far the past 4 days all I've done is sleep (on the way in and on the way out) since I'm losing 2 hours of sleep that I used to get. Sleeping on the train is easier than you'd think!

I used to read the paper until I got sleepy and then sleep.

my commute is the ccar ride but I enjoy not listening to noise. QUIET I enjoy. AS soon as I walk in the door at home everyone is screaming and everytime I walk in the door at work I get hit with work so I savor my quiet time when I get it. I just hate the traffic

I listen to music or read a book. I just moved to stamford so my commute to my new job is shorter. I also look at the houses to get an idea of the areas

sleep sleep, and more sleep!!!

If I have proofreading from work I'll bring that on the train with me too, but I usually just try to sleep. It's even better sleeping when your train is mysteriously stoppped for ridiculous amounts of time (oh, it WILL happen!) - I used to try and read but I'd get too pissed bc we were just sitting there - so now, SLEEP is my way of dealing with the daily commute. Once you get the hang of it, it's extrememly easy to fall asleep on the train :) After almost 5 years of commuting, sleeping is such a habit for me now that I get REALLY cranky if loud annoying people sit next to me and disrupt my normal naptime!
