Dang.... it's here.
Cold. Lack of heat. My perception of 'cold' is simply that: lack of heat. An internal thermometer alarms when the loss of heat reaches a threshold. "What's sucking the heat out of here!?!?"I wore my touring coat and pants this morning, but packed the mesh jacket in hope some heat diffuses back into my environment. No shorts today; I grimaced as I pulled on pants this morning. Two shirts covered my tank top. I kept my socks on while removing my gear at the train station and stowing it all on the bike under cover. But I usually wear sandals unless it's snowing. At least I didn't have to zip the quilted liners into my gear this morning, but I almost wished I had my electric vest.I don't like bundling up with layers of clothes, restricting my movement, covering my skin, weighing me down; I feel burdened. Sluggish. I don't like lack of heat. Or lack of sun. Sigh. It's that time again.Labels: commuting, rant
