<h2>50°F, Overcast, and Windy</h2>
<p>I was out on a bike ride with some friends yesterday and couldn't help but notice the weather. Just warm enough
to have a light sweatshirt on with a bit of wind and a cloudy sky. There is something special to me about this
kind of weather. I was asked if it was because it reminded me of being outside as a child, but that alone
doesn't quite capture it. It's more the transitional feeling of going from something social and fun to finally
splitting up for the day and heading home. Right between the two. You know the end is near and you can feel
those around you anxious to get ready to leave, but you just want to stay out a bit longer. Oddly perfect for
our the events of the afternoon, though I wouldn't apply my description to the dynamic of our group. But that is
what it reminds me of. A sense of longing. For the people, for the event, for a sense of normal in a busy or
lonely schedule. I'm likely projecting a bit, specifically from the past, but I suppose that's the point. If I
were more skilled, I might write a poem to describe the feeling, but I'm no poet. Maybe when I have a bit more
free-time. Or, more likely, retired.</p>

<p>Side note: I've discovered how to type symbols and special characters on Mac, so I can type Ángel's name
correctly now without having to copy and paste characters. Exciting stuff.</p>
