Said “official” looking lady on elevator today, when I shared it with her, an “official” looking man and my bike: “Isn’t it cold today?” Chatted about my fenders, yesterday’s rain and such. Wished them a good day, and she thanked me. Wow. Thanked me. No, “You, too.” Guess that Beemer ride wasn’t as fun as my bike ride, huh?

Thursday, January 28th, An Arbor, Michigan. It is very cold today. Thermometer said 12 deg F when I left the house this morning. It was bright and sunny, but with a stiff wind blowing. A perfect blue sky. But with the windchill, it felt like it was below ZERO degrees!!!!!!
I am glad I wore layers,and wore my heavy parka, and so was comfortable. Had I dressed like the fashionista hipsters, I would have suffered horribly from the cold today.
Damn, cold here is the 20s-30s. : ) We have pretty terrible summers though. :)
It was even colder today (friday). Took a break from work, and walked over to the coffee-shop,and I was amazed to see a few people who, still seemed to be more fashion oriented,and who would rather suffer from the cold, instead of wearing bulky winter clothes.
BTW, I carried a el-cheapo fountain pen in the pocket of my jeans,and the ink in the pen froze!!!!!
