Thanks, John!
I put all of my film in the freezer as soon as I got home, since I'm
just not sure how often I'll use it. Whenever I get ready to use it,
I'll pull it out and stick it in a zip lock bag with a little silica gel
pouch overnight to keep any condensation from getting to it.
The few shots I've taken so far, I've dead-centered the meter as closely
as possible at 125 under pretty bright conditions (snowy). Hopefully
they'll still look OK.

I really like Plus-X as a people film in medium format. I'm pretty
sure I've got a couple of rolls of 35mm as well.
I keep out of date film in a Tupperware container in the fridge,
unless it's something I know I'm not going to get to soon, then it
goes into the freezer. If you're not going to shoot the Plus-X film
soon, go ahead and put it in the refrigerator until you're ready.
It comes out of the fridge a day or so before shooting.
But a year out of date at room temperature shouldn't be a problem,
although if I were going to shoot it I'd over-expose it slightly.
To do that on the K1000 I'd set the ISO dial to 100 and let the meter
guide me based on that ISO. I've learned when to over/under expose
compared to the meter indication in the viewfinder.
