Brrrr .... Cold shower when I got to work. The temp was about 26 F on my ride in but very comfortable with my gear. Unfortunately, the hot shower that usually warms me up at work was not up to snuff. Yesterday morning, the shower was running extremely hot and almost scalded me. Apparently it either burned out or the maintenance guys turned the thermostat way down.

Got buzzed for the first time on my commute home yesterday. I've had drivers pass close many times, but this was deliberate. First the driver honked at me several times, and then she passed so close that she almost nipped me. I don't know what her problem was because it's a 4-lane road with turn lane in the middle, plus the lanes are very wide, so she could have easily passed me with 2-3' feet clearance without leaving her lane.
