inCarrying gloves in a wet bag was my big mistake
Learned this same thing the hard way with hiking socks on a muddy trail last spring. I kept stomping through puddles in one pair and wondering why my feet felt like bricks after mile three, until some old guy passed me in sandals and dry socks he swapped at the halfway point. That flipped a switch in my brain about wet gear in general, not just gloves. Now I carry a dry bag with spare socks, spare gloves, even a spare hat depending on the weather, and it weighs almost nothing. The swap takes like twenty seconds and saves you from being miserable for hours. Your nitrile pouch setup sounds solid for beach work since those dry fast and pack flat. Cold hands ruin the whole vibe of a cleanup way faster than people expect.

inTried to chase a rodent out of an engine bay with a leaf blower
I always figured compressed air was the way to go for nests, keep it simple and just blow the junk out, but this makes me rethink that. Shop vac with a narrow tip does the same job and doesn't turn a mouse into a projectile. We had a guy send one flying out of a fender with a blow gun and it landed on the service writer's desk. Ever since that one I've been a vacuum guy all the way.

inTIL split-screen beats online for my family game night
The thing about split screen nobody talks about is how much the shared screen space forces you to talk. Online you got a full screen and everyone is quiet, just watching their own little world. Split screen makes you share the camera, so you gotta yell stuff like "go left go left" or "who knocked the rice off." That constant chatter is the actual game, not the cooking. Online co-op with my brother turned into us barely speaking for two hours. Couch co-op had us screaming at each other in ten minutes and that is way more fun lmao.
