If you're on 35, you went the wrong way, dude! (35 goes to Fort Worth; you're thinking of 79 to 45).
I'd say that's a viable route, but truthfully, I just take 21 - 75 - 45. I prefer the two lane divided highway that is 45 and the ability to go 75-80 without much trouble. Traffic can bottleneck at times, esp. in construction, but it's gotten a lot better. I make the drive each way once every 4-5 weeks or so.
You do realize that 35 splits, right?
From CS, the easiest is 6 to the loop around Waco, then hit 35 north and go. There is very little construction left on 35 - once you're past Waco, it's all downhill (not really, but you know what I mean).
