this morning's commute was good, if somewhat sluggish for some reason. temps were in the high 40's, just cool enough to need pants and jacket, and a mild headwind. no problems, other than being slower than usual. basically a smooth commute in. I also had to stay late for a class assignment but got a break in between my last class and the assignment so I rode around town a little bit. that was fun.

due to the aforementioned class assignment keeping me late, my commute back was a night commute, and it seemed a lot more intense for some reason I can't put my finger on. it was later than I'm used to getting out, I'm sure that had something to do with it. felt like it took me forever to get ready to leave. there was a little more traffic than usual, and I was going faster and pushing myself harder than usual. but still a good commute with minimal problems. a car passed me by about two feet, on my street of all places. at least they gave me two feet. all in all, a really fast, fun ride back.
