Well....how is the weather there? Or are you (or your folks) worried that Sweden is close to Norway and.....

Going to be in a place where the high won't go above the mid-60s. :noob:

"A place"? You're just a big tease, Loki. :sour:

You could always go on weather.com and see the type of places Loki might conceivably visit that have those temperatures. :o

Too much trouble looking up longitude or latitude, really. Israel shares a horizontal line and climate with other countries. Loki could just state the place so we could all go ahhh, ohhh, lucky Loki. :p

Going from England to Scotland.

If you're 3 feet from their A/C unit and it's too loud....then close your windows and get a new A/C unit for yourself. Or earplugs. :p

They are closed...

Gorgeous! I actually had to put on a jacket for a little while. One of my hostel roommates is bringing me out tonight. :)

Make sure he doesn't murder you like in that movie about hostels. :noob:

Yeah sleeping without A/C would be annoying. That's why I keep my house at a cozy 68.

You tried this troll line before and no one fell for it. You need more material :o

My spouse regularly tries to kill me via hypothermia...65 at night...and then takes all the blankets.

It's cause he normally travels 3-4 nights a week, and LOVES hotel air conditioning...then bundles himself up with blankets.

I just sit there asking why not cut out the middle man???? (And I don't mean me!)

Well, same way for me. I sleep best when the room is cold and I can cuddle up in thick blankets.

That's so cold that no number of blankets would make it comfortable, though. I use a down comforter, even in summer. My kids want the house cooler than I find comfortable.

60 degrees at night, with cats to cuddle and down comforter as needed. Perfect. :D

Ya, even with the thermostat set at 74F I still run the ceiling fan all night. And cuddle under the comforter. :p

I do the same thing. I like to cool the house to 68 in summer, heat it to 62 in winter.

What are your utility bills for that luxury? [Summer electricity is always more expensive than my winter natural gas plus firewood.]

$50 in the summer, $80 in the winter.

When I was in Va, it was $25 summers, $15 winters, but that was natural gas heat instead of my current electric.

Per week, right? Were you living in a one bedroom or studio apartment? My budget billing for nat gas is $130/month, and that's just for heat which we don't turn on until late October, and turn off after April.

So it's you taking my blankets then?

You just need more cats, Veldan. ;)

I have 2 cats and 3 dogs!

All 3 dogs sleep on my side of the bed...and they are freezing too.

Aw, what kind of dogs are they? Tiny little dogs who need sweaters in the winter? :p

I'm not THAT gay.

A 60 lbs Basset Hound, a 30 lbs Cockapoo (okay maybe kinda that gay), and a 80lbs Weimaraner.

We had a cockapoo for a few years. Never ever again. Gave it to my sister a few weeks ago.

What behaviors were you not liking?

My Marty is a loyal companion...his only annoying trait is his piercing howl when someone comes in the house/rings doorbell.

I've been corrected. We had a peekapoo. Its the high pitch barking and never ending energy that I had a problem with. A dog that can out last a tween with ADHD is a dog I'm not going to get along with. If he wasn't outside digging under or climbing over the chainlink fence (never seen a dog do that before) he was inside terrorizing the other animals. I can't count the number of times a flying cat woke me up or I had to answer the door cause a neighbor found him wondering around. We went through so many fabric and metal leashes with him.

I think anything that ends in poo is off my pet list.
