59 to 66 in 30 minutes

The alarm went off this morning, and I peeked out from under the covers to see the bedroom heater reading 59F. 
Noooooooo!!!!!!
Second thought:  Why didn't I set up the coffee maker in the bedroom last night?

Thank goodness I was smart enough to wear actual pajamas and socks to bed.

Third thought:  There will be no walk this morning, so how will I wake up and warm up?

Rummaged through my entertainment cabinet and pulled out my workout DVD's - put on Reebok Step Workout (does anybody remember that - Gin Miller & the African Drums in the MTV-like setting? - still my favorite if I have to exercise inside). 

Worked out with the sound off and my iPod on until the first pulse check (30 minutes) - the temperature on the heater was at 66F (wow, guess I'm hot huh??) ;-)

Only downside is after I had to take a shower (and then get out of the shower.....Nooooo!!!!!)

You would not like where I live.

I went to 1 year of college in Massachusetts. I was born there (moved before I could walk). I was utterly miserable. My friends said I'd get used to it, but I didn't stick around long enough (went home the following spring). Sometimes at night I'd breath in and I'd swear my lungs were freezing!
