I wore long johns for the first time this winter :)

Well, the weather deserved it -- the weather forecast said that it was -11 °C outside (that's about 12 °F for you Usonians).

The main problem with long johns is that they keep you warm when you're outside, but heat you up too much once you're inside :P. So I usually take them off once I get to work and have to remember to put them on again before I leave. And the bus can sometimes get pretty warm as well.

I suggested to Stella to keep the temperature at home around 15 °C (59 °F) during the winter so I don't need to strip back so far once I get home, but she wasn't particularly convinced either XD
