Day 1 as a bicycle commuter

As I coasted down a hill in the chilly morning air, I felt a bit of regret for deciding to park the car this week. My legs weren't very happy about going up the last, long hill to work, either. In fact, I almost didn't go to the RDC dance class after work for dread of the cool air. Yet, I'd been looking forward to it since before Christmas. So, I put on my fleece and made my way toward campus. After feeling completely intimidated by the talented young college students popping and sliding, I walked out after the first RDC class. However, couples dancing caught my eye. At the other end of the hall, rumba lessons! This is Texas Ballroom's free week. If you're non-UT students or staff, this is the week to check out ballroom dancing.  By nine, I was at my hungry point and decided to skip the cha-cha lesson. Beside, my bike needs a little love before tomorrow. The chain should be greased, and the tires pumped.
