not seeing/hearing the obvious

While reading someone's profile, I realized for possibly the first time that the German word for a sweater, "Pullover", is based on the English words "pull over". I may not have ever thought about the word in that way before. It was just a German word to me, sort of like "palaver" is a just an English word if you don't know its etymology.

I'm also not sure I've heard it used as a word like that in English before (which helps explain why I didn't make the connection), even though wiktionary lists it as English.

Updated to add:
I just remembered this too: Germans often use a short form of the word, Pulli.

Half Moon with Jupiter

Jupiter is in the sky near the half-moon tonight. A pleasing configuration, looking very nice.

I tried to take a photo earlier but kept getting a blob for the moon, as typical.
