I had a dream last night, in which I was in RI on Friday, right before Shabbat, driving around the East Side of Providence with my mom.

Mom: Rachel, where am I taking you for shabbas?
Me: That's a very good question. I don't know.
Mom: You don't know?!

So I made a bunch of frantic phone calls within the 18 minutes and ended up at the Yavners. They had a weird breakfast meal for Friday night dinner.

*Note to self, arrange the Shabbats of spring break before that Friday afternoon.

I had a midterm in primates and I think I did decently, though there were a few questions I messed up on. But it was a section that wasn't worth so many points so it was ok.

I also tried biking in the snow today. Bad idea. The bike lanes are not plowed, so there are 2 options- bike in the street or bike on the sidewalk. The street has the risk of cars. The sidewalk isn't completely shoveled, and has crazy pedestrians who can't walk in a straight line.

I also biked through actual snow at one point, and almost lost control of the bike.

I survived, barely. Perhaps because of this and Saturday night I should Bensch Gomel on Shabbat. I'll ask Seif.

Rachel:1
Snow:0

The sidewalk isn't completely shoveled, and has crazy pedestrians who can't walk in a straight line.

Also, in most states, it's not legal to bicycle on the sidewalk. Most states treat bicycles like cars, which means they have to stop at stop signs and traffic lights, ride on the right side of the road, and stay off the sidewalks.
