The last time I commuted to work was December 11, 3-1/2 weeks ago! I didn't feel a big urge to ride, but I knew it would be good for me. I couldn't think of any excuses not to ride, so I did. I reminded myself that I didn't have to push myself. In fact, I knew if I pushed myself I might get overheated, and my workplace can be overheated which makes it hard to cool down. I can't think of anything unusual that happened, and that probably means my memory is faulty as usual. I did see the father and daughter pair on their tandem as usual. We passed each other in opposite directions as we usually do on the Brooklyn Bridge. That gave me a smile.

Getting ready for work at home, I heard on the news that Nicholas Maduro is being detained in Brooklyn. My school building is next to one of the court buildings. I looked it up, and the detention center is a couple of miles away so I won't shout anything inappropriate towards any windows. Just kidding; I wouldn't do that, although I was tempted once when I realized I was downstairs from Jeffrey Epstein.
