Once your body registers too hot or too cold, the temperature crowds out everything else. Conversation, patience and concentration can all narrow around the need to get comfortable again.
- feeling close to tears when a room becomes slightly too warm
- being unable to think while cold air blows onto one arm
- changing clothes several times as the temperature moves
- losing patience quickly when the car heater or air conditioning misses the mark
