I was planning on going for ride this morning but it wasn't going to be a commute in.

My wife called me about 3pm yesterday afternoon and asked if I was going to ride home because the weather was looking worse. I told her that the forecast was for thunderstorms and they hadn't happened yet so maybe I'll just leave my bike at work and take a ride home in the car with her. (In the end, the weather cleared and it was nice, warm and sunny (but very windy). She also mentioned that she starts work today at 6am and that if I drove her into work (5 min drive from my work), I could take the car to my work, hop on my bike and go for a nice ride starting and finishing at work (but not a commute as I said at the outset). This is what I planned on doing so when I got to work at 6:05am, I reached for my mag card to let me into the parking lot (and then the building) and it wasn't there, I guess I hadn't brought it home with me so therefore, I couldn't get in to get my bike, so I just went home.

As I was getting ready to head out the door again at 8:15 to drive in to work (and borrow someone's mag card to get into the parking lot), I noticed on the shelf where I put my keys, my mag card. Sheesh, I could have done the ride as planned.

Oh well, my wife is out of town tonight so I can ride the long way home and make my dinner when I get home and not worry about her dinner.
