Commuting

I got to work and back today on 0.000 gallons of gasoline using only pedal power. All told, I rode about twenty miles including ten in the light rain on the way home. Riding along the Charles River was awesome, but we already knew that. I must say that the rain was not that bad, but worrying about my cell phone getting soaked wasn't fun. Halfway through the day I had even mentioned to Jen that a water-proof bag would be clutch for situations like these. Though, a bag that stays put behind my back would also be nice. What I've got now is a messenger bag which is actually a lot better than my backpack because that one isn't big enough for work clothes and shower stuff. Oh yeah, I showered at work this morning. That kind of kicks ass.

My thought is that there's a good chance of my car getting partially repossessed in a month or two, so getting acclimated to not having one would be beneficial to me. I guess it's not for certain, but eventually Jen's going to get a job and I don't think it's likely that it'll be convenient to keep carpooling with her. There's always a chance that we'll get a second car, but a water-proof backpack large enough to fit my work clothes and my shower stuff is so much more healthy and affordable. Ya know?
