96 Accord EX 5 Speed 75,000 miles.
On my way home tonight, my clutch was mushy in that it didn't seem to engage
as early as it usually does. Shifting out of first was fine but to come to
a stop, I couldn't get it into first without jamming it. Only change
between this morning and tonight was that the temperatures were colder today
but nothing the car hadn't seen before.
Thoughts?

You should change your clutch (brake) fluid every time you have your
brakes flushed. If you're lucky, topping up the (clutch) reservoir will
get you going again.

Congratulations, CB. But do put the clutch fluid level on your daily watch
list for a week or two. If it drops, you will want to look for fluid leaks
at either cyylinder and replace any leaky ones before they bite you on the
road.
