Internal Thermometers

OK, I know that I don't often wear the same styles as the people around me. Let's face it, I'm just a tad older than most of the crowd I hang with all day. I also don't really give a crap if I am making a fashion statement. (At my age and my proportions, the only statement I ever make is MIDDLE-AGED FAT WOMAN anyway.)



I am going somewhere with this folks. Most of you know that I live in Syracuse, NY. Most of you also know that I go to Syracuse University, which sits on the highest hill in Syracuse, NY. OK, today it was 40 degrees out and raining like a son of a gun. I thought I dressed appropriately in my jeans, a long sleeved sweat shirt, and I figured I was pushing it with a very light rain coat. (40 is not that warm when there are 40 MPH winds accompanying.) I saw people today wearing mid-winter parkas, with zippers up higher than the sky, full-faced ski masks, winter boots, ear muffs and scarves. I also saw people in short sleeved shirts, shorts, open toed sandals and even sun glasses. (The sun has gone south for the winter and spring here.) Am I crazy or did someone really screw up with the internal thermometers? Who is in charge of setting those suckers?
