How you know it's cold in Los Angeles...

Last night around 5am I woke up trembling. This is nothing new for me... I have had panic attacks for the last 6 months... However, this was a little different because my entire body was shaking and I felt like I was freezing. I took my temperature and it was 95.2. To some extent, I felt like I couldn't breath or get enough air. After feeling this way for about 15 minutes, and having added a bunch of blankets to my bed, I ended up calling 911.

The paramedics (LA County Fire) arrived about 6 minutes later, but by then I was feeling a lot better and my temperature had risen to ~97. They took my pulse, did an EKG, and told me I could come with them or go to the ER on my own. I told them I though I was probably ok and would go to see the doctor on my own.

Long story short, I still feel cold, but I am all bundled up and have an appointment to see a doc tomorrow at 3pm.

My cat apparently also thinks its cold: http://www.travbuddy.com/images/temp/68_11667419953845.jpg

I have never seen her under covers like that before! 🙂

My mom keeps her house between 65-70 degrees for anyone wondering.. I dont think it was below 65 last night...

My family says its stress and panic and I should STFU, but all I know is I felt BAD those first 5 min after I woke up.

haha.. I guess I have a low tolerance for pain? The other nite my car said it was 39 outside... apparently LA is seeing record low temps... although the rest of the country is laughing at us.

my heating bill is going to be killer
 
Global warming or not, I do see a definite change in weather pattern and it's not pleasant. Last summer we had record heat, I can bet that the upcoming summer will be no different, if not worse.
 
I was down in the LA area yesterday and it was like 70 degrees in the evening.
