(Note: I will never be willing to march outside and go for a hike, just so we&#8217;re clear.) So what did I do instead? I went through all my coats and clothes and things and <a href=\"https:\/\/konmari.com\/\">Marie Kondo&#8217;d<\/a> my life.<\/p>\n<p>I mean, not really. I basically only got rid of things I hadn&#8217;t worn in a year. But the feeling of accomplishment I earned for doing basically nothing? Terrific.

And the only thing worse than February and March? Hate-reading in February and March. Nothing in the world will ever make the nights feel longer and colder, I promise you this.
