Four days in a row! That's... not unprecedented actually. I think my record is somewhere around 15 days, which seems exceptionally lame when I'm posting right after Tundra_Man . Oh, and welcome back essiemyra too, it was starting to feel like this thread was becoming Groovestew's Boring Commute Diary.

I just about didn't ride today, and not because of weather. My wife asked if I could pick up our younger daughter from a birthday party on my way home from work, which I would need a vehicle for. And I said in response, "Woman, I'm the Man, what I say goes, and schlepping the kids around is your responsibility!" Yeah, that didn't happen. In reality, I timidly expressed my preference for riding my bicycle today, but would be perfectly willing to help her out in any way possible. In the end, she graciously worked out a plan for picking up the kid around her schedule, leaving me free to ride.

A bit on the warm side this morning. Naturally, one of my colleagues came into my office before I could even catch my breath, to discuss a document as I sit dripping sweat.
