Cold Hands

There are typically two types of people: Cold people and Hot people.
I am a hot person.

If it's cold outside I am okay. If it's hot outside I'm pretty miserable. If your thermostat is anywhere above 73, I start to sweat. Very rarely am I cold. In fact, I enjoy the temperature where if you stay in a room for more than an hour your toes and fingertips start to loose feeling. Yep, I'm weird like that. I like to crawl under a blanket, but it has to be somewhere near 65 for me to pull that off - and even at that temp my feet will most likely be sticking out from under the blanket to regulate my temperature.

So the fact that my hands are freezing cold right now is very strange indeed. I've been at work for several hours now and still they have not warmed up yet. Normally, at this point, my hands have totally thawed out from any chill they might have received and I am turning on my desk fan to keep from getting too warm. Not today.

Could this be a sign that I might be getting sick?
Could it be that *gasp* my body is beginning to adjust to more "normal" temperatures?

I hope it's just a fluke thing. I like being able to walk around the apartment in shorts and a t-shirt in the winter months, with the temp in the low 60s...
