Summer Coolness

Summer is so cold. It's not that the weather is unusually mild, the problem is that my office is under attack from powerful air conditioning, incessantly blasting chilled air at our lightly dressed bodies. A few minutes is refreshing, an hour chills our bones and a whole day renders us shivery and mildly hypothermic. Moving around would seem a logical way to warm up but paradoxically it worsens the feeling by increasing the volume of cool air hitting the skin. So staying dead still is recommended.

I refuse to dress warmly on principle, and I'm suffering for it. I can't wait for the autumn to hit.
