Sometimes, just for fun, I do those in reverse order. :p


Nothing like frolicking naked in the privacy or your own home. ;)

just don't let the neighbors see you! they might call the cops on you!
Neighbors all inexplicably moved away.

Talk about your penis envy. :disgust:
edited becuase quite honesty think i mis understood ya


but this is why i live in the country. i can walk out to my shed in my underwear and NOBODY would see or care.

if someone did see its ok they would die from the shear whitness of my body. the glare would kill them.

i totally just locked myself out of my house with my boxers on no shirt no socks/shoes... and then continued to walk around like this for another 20 - 30 minutes until i picked the lock on my door... the bad part was that my neighbor saw me lol... yea i got back in about 10 minutes ago


edit: oh yea, as for unwinding: i smoke something ;) sometimes its green

I've never been given a straight answer on this.

If your house is managed by a modern HVAC system, it would normally be about the same temp year round. If this is the case for you, how would the season affect your clothing choice?

Just curious...

I wear t-shirt/khaki shorts year round.

Unless I'm sick or it's ball freezing cold, I don't do sweats.

I do as well, that's why I'm asking. The g/f is cold in the summer at 68 and cold in the winter at 72. She is all over the place!

Firstly, it is my experience that ambient temps outside can noticeably affect the preceived (or actual) indoor temp, even if the same reading appears at the physical location of the thermostat.

Secondly, for conservation purposes, people vary their default indoor temp by season -- making it lower in winter and higher in summer. Pocketbook and Planet, hand in hand, FTW! :laugh:
