Answer 5

It feels like you've started running a fever, you're temp has went up about 30 degrees, you have too many clothes on even when you're wearing nothing.   I start sweating, I get light headed, I can't get cooled fast enough, and I always feel like I need a shower.  I want to stand out in the snow.  I have seriously considered moving to Alaska just for the snow!  My air conditioner is set between 70 - 72 and THAT'S not always cool enough!  There are times I stand in front of the freezer!
