Cool-downs

It's that time of year again.  Hot and sticky one day, cold and windy the next.  Today was the next. We had a pretty good cool-down after that front pushed through yesterday, and I was having a little trouble dealing with the sudden change. I pulled on an extra jersey and a pair of arm-warmers and headed out the door. It was a Friday.  It was really windy.  It was dark.  It was twenty degrees colder than the day before.  I figured I'd be alone.  I was, but I really don't mind that on Friday when I usually just want to take it easy and enjoy the ride.  Somewhere out around the Country Club I ran into Taylor.  So at least I had a little conversation to make the ride go by a little faster, which wasn't actually very fast at all. This was good because it helped keep my mind off of the fact that my toes were still a long way from being winter-ready.  On the way home I decided to stop by Zotz for a cup of coffee and a bagel, which were nice.  By the time I got back on the bike, though, I had cooled down so much that I had to really hustle home before I got really cold.

So today I switched from grant proposals to Facebook.  After wading through the posts about the ongoing King of Style Collegiate Jersey wars  Contest, (stroke of genius on USAC's part, I might add), I finally set up the Facebook page for the Tulane Office of Government Affairs, and spend altogether too much time trying to figure out how to put their "like button" widget onto our regular web page before finally relenting and calling the experts, who of course had it up and running in about ten minutes.

I wonder how cold it will be in the morning......
