You're lucky your spouse is willing and able to pick you up. When we lived in New Jersey, she did it for me only once, and after a lot of griping. Now that we're back in NYC, I don't need any rides.

Tuesdays are long days for me. I wake up at 6 every day, and on Tuesdays, after work, I have a class from 4:30 to 7:00, and then I have a rehearsal from 7:00 to 9:30 or 10:00. I'm guaranteed not to get 8 hours of sleep on Tuesday nights. I was feeling extra tired having ridden 17 miles for the day so I decided I would take the subway today, and I did. Coincidentally, it's a rainy day, the first in a long time. At one point when I was getting dressed, I heard the rain come down very hard. By the time I was walking to the subway, it was very light. If I had ridden, the weather would not have bothered me, but I think a little rest is probably wise.

Smaug1 it's cooling in Wisconsin? Not here yet! Mornings are around 67º and warmest time is still 80º or so. Unusual for this time of year, though there's not much "usual" anymore. As I say from time to time, I'm very concerned about the climate, but I'm enjoying the weather.
