I rode my motorcycle all the way in to Park Street today. Normally I stick to Alewife, but when one is going to ~~Alls~~Brighton in the evening, it makes less than no sense to follow the usual path. Despite leaving the house (the first time) 10 minutes later, and 2 false starts, I showed up exactly on time. Yarrrr! The trip in was significantly less stressful than I expected on top of that.

Observation 1: stay to the far left lane when coming down to the bottom of the rt 2 hill by Alewife. It may stop first, but it starts up faster while the other 2 lanes jockey to be in the same place at the same time. There's usually enough time to slide to the exit lane for Alewife. I went past towards Fresh Pond, but still- good to know.

Observation 2: tank bags ROCK. It turns out that my back door is metal and it'll stay to that and my filing cabinet at work with no problem. I adore not having to have a backpack while I ride. We like having happy shoulders, Precious.

Observation 3: it costs more to get a key made than to get a packet of etamame. Also, etamame might be tasty, but it fails to kill the hungry feeling. It's the world's perfect appetizer.
