This Was Too Long for Twitter (That’s What She Said)

Here’s a word problem for you — in about 40 minutes I have to pick up my youngest son from preschool.  It’s walking distance, which is good because I don’t have access to a car.  In about 48 minutes I have to pick up my oldest son from his elementary school.  It’s also walking distance, which is still good for the same reason that I listed above.

They are in opposite directions. My house sits in the middle. At what time will the train reach Chicago?

Also, I haven’t done shit for work today and I don’t have a very good excuse.

Word problems suck. And now I’m late. Great.
