Unfortunately I don't have any. It's 59F in my house right now. I can barely feel my fingers. Half a tank of oil left... boiler doesn't want to work (reset button is already depressed so I can't try it). Guy will come tomorrow (I'm gonna be out and can't wait around). Fun stuff.

Oh, it's 59 degrees, you must be dying!

It's only 53 degrees here, I had better not go outside, I might get frostbite.

/me looks out window.
/me sees people walking dogs and riding bikes.

Crap, I better call an ambulance, they'll be dead in 5 minutes!

65F degrees is what I keep the house at and when it drops (especially in winter), I notice.

You CA people wouldn't understand. Your house is not at a constant temperature just above comfortable. Can you stay outside at 59F for hours and bear it like it's not cold ? I don't think so. Not frostbite, but I really have COLD hands.
