Ditto to Traffic Skills 101. Since you've taken it, I encourage you to pursue more of the Bike League curriculum
Take some of your fuel cost savings and invest in LOTS of bright lights and reflective tape...and set an example for folks who under-illuminate themselves.
ETA: In looking at the map, it seems that you're well situated with Lanes that can at least get you across the river to one of the greenways...May not be the straightest route, but would keep you out of a lot of the riskier "downtown fringe" where the traffic is less disciplined and faster moving.
I believe that, if you're visible, predictable, courteous, and assertive, you should have no problem...but comfort grows with time and experience.
