Temperature

Why is it that in the winter I have my thermostat set on 72, am wearing long sleeves, jeans, shoes and socks, and still feel a little cold while in the summer the thermostat is on 78 and I, in my shorts, tank top, and bare feet, feel warm? It's only a difference of 6 degrees! And my dress is so different in each case. Is the human body that sensitive to a few degrees of temperature? Is it all in my mind?

No, it is not just in your mind. I am the same way. And I only like to drink hot things when it is cold outside but still 72 in doors, yet I keep it 72 indoors in the summer too and won't drink hot things or eat hot soup. Weird? This makes me want some hot chocolate.
