Yes, I'm one of those inconsiderate people who likes the cold when everyone around me is freezing. Even in the winter time, I like my home cool. The living room is the only room in the house that is heated. No matter how cold it is outside, we sleep with the windows open and the fan blowing. No, I am not hot flashing - we just prefer living in cool temperatures.
My friends know that I don't own a winter jacket. They offered to loan me one when I visited my daughter in the Arctic a couple years ago. I reluctantly took it with me for the trip, but I never zipped it closed – the temperature was a balmy MINUS 30 degrees. At that temperature, it doesn't matter if it is Fahrenheit or Celsius – your breath freezes in mid-air. Barely fazed me. Always been this way.
I grew up in Midwest USA. Over 40 years ago the man I chose to spend the rest of my life with informed me he wanted to move to the West Coast.
“Don't believe what you read, it rarely rains in Seattle” he lied. Blinded by love, I believed him and helped to fulfill his desire to live and die near the ocean.
I realized very quickly that it rained a lot more than I had even imagined, but it didn't matter because the bonus to living here was the summers were cool.
