LOL!!
"Being all warm and cozy is nice, especially with a significant other."
I find cold weather invigorating, all I added was thermal long johns and long pants plus warm boots and hooded parka for outdoors.
It was very common to find most places overheated, so I wanted to be able to really strip down inside, even take off my boots
Work or playing football in the cold or doing anything vigorous, like romancing my girlfriend, was just a joy in the cold weather. I felt super charged. I could go and go,
I played football with the guys in the dorm., body heat kept us warm, we would strip to t shirts and play for hours.
Snow/ice/sleet/hail, mud and wind no thanks, but the cold not so bad.
I'm Canadian. I don't fear the cold. The cold fears me. All you Southerners need to quit complaining-- I know your bodies are accustomed to your too-warm weather, but what you do is not "bundling up", it's "wearing pants instead of shorts with a long sleeved shirt" and, if it gets cold enough, a jacket-- yet, in that weather, I would still be wearing a t-shirt. Not to pretend you don't interpret it as cold... but please stop being wusses.
It's a cultural quirk nobody notices, over dressing and overheating the homes.
Think how its strange, how hot so many northern homes are kept in winter, 80's F & up. often. Sopmetimes 90's. I never needed to heat my apartment, the ones above, and on the sides heated the walls fine.
I often kept the windows open, with snow up to the window and ice sicles hanging down
Preacher: Einstein's theory of relativity. Grab hold of a hot pan, second can seem like an hour. Put your hands on a hot woman, an hour can seem like a second. It's all relative.
Tom Scoggins: I spent four years at CalTech, and that's the best physics explanation I've ever heard.
