I’m Cold in Warm Houston

It’s warm here in Houston. 85° in mid October sounds warm to me. But I wouldn’t know it was actually warm. I spent the day inside a lovely club where it was quite cool. It was cool in my room that I slept in last night. And tonight we went to a different club for dinner and my hostess Nancy gave me a pashmina because she said it would be cold in the club.

It was freezing in the club, but thankfully we were able to sit outside where it was perfectly 72°. I was lucky enough to not sit next to the open window where the air conditioning was pouring out, cooling off the outside.

It appears that I am getting colder and colder these days. My lack of metabolism is one thing. I used to just always have cold hands, but now all my parts are cold. Even the parts that are the most covered up.

I figure if I can’t be warm in Houston there is no hope for me. I guess I am going to have to start carrying around extra layers. This goes against my “pack as little as possible” ethos.
