I wasn't even really all that wierded out by the traffic (I was surprised) - I suppose it helped that I pulled up behind some woman who seemed to know what she was doing and I just rode behind her for part of the ride. Definitely want that helmet mirror though.
The open grate bridges are a bit freaky, and one in particular is long as heck and uphill, which makes it feel like it takes forever to get over it, but I'll find a way around.
I'm also surprised by how much more awake and alert I feel this morning!
The best (!@(#@! part? Watching cars pass me.... and then catching back up at every red light. HAHA!

Often I like to think he is my Dashing Husband.

Good job rhyme!! With all the cursing at the front, I thought it was going to turn out to be a bad commute, but quickly realized the cursing was happy and exciting and that all went very well! Yippeee!!!!
