1. This reminds me of me...
The temps in the morning can be in the 30's or 40's now. We walk our dogs and pass others wearing coats and scarves. I wear a t-shirt because I am not cold. Until they get used to seeing me, the neighbors will say "Aren't you cold?" or "WHERE is your coat?" which tells me they think I am 1) cold or 2) stupid.

Put me in cold water and the headlights will come on. 30 or 40 degrees? Nope...smooth as silk.

I want to ask "DO I LOOK COLD?" and point to the chest. :D

2. I was raised in Connecticut 'til age 6, then Michigan. I felt no cold.

The last 5 years or so, one of the concrete signs of my aging
is the fact that, for the Tucson winters -- even when I had jus
my RV witn no real insulation, I used to sleep just covered by
sheets. Then I needed a blanket... now I'm comfortable with two.
.
.
.
Being Fucking Immortal, if this progression keeps up, sooner or
later I'll just completely FILL a room with blankets and crawl
into them at about the 5-ft level.

On the plus side, it's be like the coolest fort in the world!!!

3. Is one bigger than the other?
I keep thinking the one on the left is a tiny bit bigger.
