Well That's No Good

All winter I froze. The office I shared with Eugene was freezing in the mornings and only chilly in the afternoons. I would go home and put on the warmest clothes I had to get my core body temperature back to something like normal.

Then spring came (finally). The sun blaring down on our office windows in the afternoon last week sent the temp rising and heat induced napping started to occur. It was awful.

Today another co-worker comes in the office to speak to me and says, "Man its warm in here." I begin to complain about the heat. She says while pointing to the ceiling, "Well why don't you uncover your vent?"

I look up and see the vent taped shut with paper. What the hell?! I look at Eugene and say, "I'm taking that off!"

"Better speak to Gabe," he replies mentioning the previous office occupant. "He said he freezed in the winter and too hot in summer." I look across to Eugene and say, "How's that different from now? We can always close it if it doesn't work out."

So far this afternoon the heat induced coma has not set in.
