In With the New

Wintertime,
And my fingers are freezing.
Rooftops are frosted;
The sun is low in the sky.
Warm toes? Warm fingers? Pick one, because you can't have both on a chilly winter morning. By the time my fingers stopped stinging, my toes were numb. [Eh, it's not really that cold here.]

And what better day for a bike commute, when the office is empty. Best time of the year to catch up: no meetings, no interruptions, no one else around. It was so quiet in the afternoon that one of my colleagues couldn't take it anymore and headed back home to work from there.

Pink clouds and trees reflected in still water, Vasona Lake at dusk, Los Gatos, California, USA
A fine day for an early departure, to get home before dark!
