Day 4,590—2 Percent Chance of Snow—

 

Start time: 4:41 a.m.

       I was shocked by the cold this morning. I heard that it was going to be cooler. Still, I thought it had already gotten cold this week. While waiting at the bus stop for my daughter, I needed a heavier jacket, and this morning I wore all my cold-weather stuff except my running pants/leggings, which I didn’t even consider putting on. I went with my hat, technically three pairs of gloves, and a scarf that I got from the last Shippey 100. It is a great scarf, and it's the kind of thing I probably wouldn't have bought for myself, so it is nice to have for occasions like this. My hands and my ears get cold before any other part of my body. I had my plastic gloves, my bike gloves, and my mittens, so only my plastic gloves fully covered the tops of my fingers. I started with my mittens covering everything, but it didn’t take long before I took my thumb out.

        It is always tricky to dress in this weather because you don’t want to wear too much, but you also don’t want to be cold. I think it would have to drop another 10 degrees before I changed out of my shorts, but that’s me. I was listening to another podcast about You Can See Everything, and I am still so fascinated by this film and the different interpretations people have of it. I don’t think I realized this until now, but this has got to be one of the best years for movies in recent memory. This movie is number 3 on my list of films I know I will buy and watch multiple times. I also like that 2 of the 3 movies are ones everyone else liked too, which I feel like almost never happens, but it started with the Odyssey, then the Invite, and now You Can See Everything. I hope more people are catching The Invite on streaming, because after watching You Can See Everything, I was debating watching it again. I was tempted to pre-order the Odyssey in 4K. Still, I want to wait to see if a different edition comes out that looks inherently cooler, but I do want to rewatch it; I'll wait until I get a physical copy unless it ends up streaming on something before then.
