Yesterday, we had tickets to the U Blackout game. We went with Kevin's cousin Andrew and my older brother Lyman. Utah won their game which made it that much more fun and a great end to our game week! Now, since it had snowed a few days before and I can't handle being cold, at all, ever. Then Kevin and I went shopping earlier that day for some Utah gear and a few more warm clothing items for me. It was a gorgeous day of 57 degrees and at night it's not bad, unless your outside for almost 5 hours. Since I don't handle the cold at all, and Kevin was not going to leave the game early and I really did want to go then I went prepared. I had my regular G's, thermal G's, an undershirt (too lazy to take off when I was changing) a long sleeve thin thermal, my Ute shirt and a jacket, two pairs of socks and my casual boots. (We just bought me 3 different pairs of boots this week too-Happy early birthday to me!) Oh, and of course pants. In my bag that I took I had 2 pairs of gloves, my ear warmers, a beanie, a scarf, another jacket that was super soft, and we brought a blanket. I wore the first 7 layers for the first half then added the 2nd jacket, my gloves, scarf and ear warmers. It wasn't super cold, especially since it wasn't windy, but since I was getting chilly with all of those layers half way through the game I'm sure I would've have been a lot colder without the layers. It also doesn't help that I have some disease where I have poor circulation so my feet and hands get colder faster and go completely numb, with added charlie horses sometimes too. I'd rather be sweating to death then shivering convulsively anyway :)
