Yeah, everyone who wants to maintain their battery (especially for storage and through cold weather) should put it on a battery tender. $40 will save you a new battery and many headaches.
Plus, you can get a usb adapter for the quick-disconenct that comes off your battery, or a voltage meter to check your battery status.
You know it sucks that one of the most fun things you can do with your clothes on is also dangerous. I hope that in the future you reconsider riding not because you feel you need to overcome your fear or prove a point, but more so that you remember that with life comes chance and danger, and that shouldn't stop you from doing something that brings you joy.
For my part I made sure to buy full insurance (collision, uninsured, underinsured, theft, the whole deal) for all my bikes because I understand that for the most part that there are a lot folks here in the city (and surrounding areas) that cannot afford or obtain, insurance or a license. I also have a helmet cam recording every commute in case there is any doubt about fault or if some jackass needs to be reported for almost killing me.
In case anyone asks I use a Drift HD720 its only about $100, comes with a removable battery that's good for about 2 hours of recording. The sound quality is atrocious mostly because of wind noise (I turn it off) but overall it's good for documenting and keeping folks honest.
Take the MRC!
Then buy this book:

And read it cover to cover, at least three times.
Once you have the stuff in that book down, move onto this:
