... but before getting ANY work done, I'm gonna go put on another sweater because I'm freezing to death. Perhaps literally. For some reason, my internal thermostat seems to have reset itself to "borderline hypothermic" ... I'm quite serious. I first thought to check my body temperature a few months ago, and found it was about 96.5. Since then, I find that it fluxuates between about 96 and 97 degrees.

By comparison, "normal" human body temperature is supposed to be 98.6F. This means that at the best of times, my body temperature is a degree and a half below normal. Thus I have no energy and feel like I'm freezing all the time. Our heating bill is going through the roof, so I've been trying to keep the thermostat turned down to normal, even if it means I have to pile sweaters on myself to keep warm.

This makes moving to Alaska look even sillier, doesn't it?
