Not WoD related, but temperature related. It was 73 degrees outside today, and I was more comfortable in my sun baked car on the drive home.

In my apartment, its slightly around 75, and I'm wearing light jacket.

On the plus side, at least, maybe my electric bill will finally drop below 100 dollars.

Have you tried adding some blood to your alcohol stream? :p

Only on Saturday nights, when there isn't a competitive run on my calendar.

Similar temperature tastes here.
If it drops much below 70°F, my hands start to lose heat to the point of dropping below room temperature.
(Confirmed this, by chance, with a thermocouple.)

I need a girlfriend just so we can not fight about the temperature all the time. :p

you must have lived in phx for a few years now, thats what happens after you go thru a few phoenix summers. your blood does get thinner.

after you have lived thru a few summers of 110 -115 plus heat, 75 is more than 35 degrees cooler than what you get in the summer so it does feel cold. I grew up in phx and i get cold when its 70.

Our bedroom is shut off from the rest of the house & we sometimes leave the window slightly cracked. Electric mattress topper & room temp in the low 50's makes for a great night's sleep. :)

I first arrived here in April 2003. It really stinks when I visit family in MI at Christmas. My parents think 66F is comfortable and 72 is too hot. So I get to spend the entire time wearing long johns, thermal socks, and a fleece jacket.

or Thalasemia?

Never been checked, unless it was done as part of the usual lab work when I was in the AF. I doubt I have either though, I would think they would have interfered with my distance running efforts long before now.

I've actually opened my room window when it's 30 below. I love sleeping when it's cold. Once when it was more like 50 below and it was wide open I decided to shut it later at night, and it turned out it froze open. Fun. Was not during a blizzard thankfully

You need to inject some corn starch into your veins. Should thicken things up nicely.

I don't really feel cold in my legs or arms until about -20 C. My fingers get cold at about -3 C, depending on the wind.
