Am I a reptile?

Nov 12, 2009 11:28

A friend and former co-worker of mine recently moved about seventy miles east of here for school. It's much colder in her new town than it is here, and it gets considerably more snow in winter.

While we were talking about this the other day, she mentioned that she prefers to let the temperature in her bedroom drop below 60° at night, because she finds a 60° room uncomfortably warm for sleeping in.1

This nearly caused me to faint in startlement. My bedroom has been hovering around 60° at night,2 and I have been spending my nights curled tightly around a hot water bottle under a gigantor pile of blankets. And I still wind up chirruping and kitty-kittying to try and coax the cats to come sleep on top of me4 for extra warmth.

So now, of course, I cannot rest until I know what you guys think is a comfortable sleeping temperature. Therefore, here is a poll!

Poll Brrrr?

1 15.5 °C for you shameless Fahrenheit abstainers.

2 Because I haven't turned the heat on for the winter yet.3

3 Because I am a cheapskate.

4 Fortunately, this is their preferred method of sleeping anyway, so very little coaxing is required.
