Well, I think it is good that he feels guilty enough about it that he owned up to it in a new thread.

That shows good intent not to wuss out in the future.
I found that once I got going and commuted every day for two weeks, I felt really antsy and a little cranky on the few days when I couldn't commute by bike. You'll get there.
I also found that if I wussed out every day when the forecast said "chance of rain" I was only riding less than 50% of the time. I decided to take my chances when it is not raining in the AM. I usually come out OK, and the worst that happens is I come home wet, which is no problem.
