Just don't meter off of the blue sky.  I do that sometimes when I'm shooting 
scenes with normal film, but learned my lesson with IR.  Since I was using a 
red filter with the IR, which makes the sky black, my subject was blasted 
(duh).  Oh well, I'm always learning.  
I prefer metering off of a graycard or finding something that is a neutral 
shade.  But who are we kidding, its IR.  Bracket.....
