Drive time

C was driving Milo to Sherrill's after having dropped off Lucie at a friend's. Traffic was slow, and no doubt prompted by C's grumbling about the red lights, Milo said, "This ride is taking a really really long time, like going to Nana and Papa's house!"

C: "Not really. It may be taking us a little longer than usual this morning, but don't you remember how very long it took to get to Memphis? We were in the car for a whole day."

M: "Yeah, I guess so."

About a minute later:

M: "This ride is taking a long time. Not an officially long time. Just a long time."
