I rode today. I work at an elementary school, and today is Pajama Day. Um, no, I won't be coming in wearing pajamas, and I don't own any, anyway. I decided wearing athletic clothes is enough of a change. It was cold and windy, and I ride along the river which is colder and windier than the rest of the City. I decided to try without wearing a coat. I layered up with baselayers and cycling tights and jersey. That worked, but damn, my fingers and toes got cold. Classic problem. Maybe I should get those chemical hand warmers. I have a pair of shoes they might fit in.

Rat tally:
Dead: 1
Alive: 0

It seems every time I ride in the City, I see at least one rat, dead or alive.

I work with 4th graders. They seem amused to see me dressed this way. I'm amused to see them dressed in colorful pajamas.
