I come from an odd family, and I’m sure we all think our family members are odd in their own ways, but mine is really weird.
My family has the strongest cold tolerance I have ever seen, and even when it is below freezing, they will only take a light jacket and capris. When I would ask if they were cold, they would look at me funny, as if I am a weirdo, but these are also the same people that will eat ice cream on these cold mornings and go visit the skating rink. We particularly just went to the skating rink yesterday. When my mother mentioned going to see the skating rink, I felt a sense of dread. I was not ready to visit the skating rink at all, it was way too cold, and I am not a fan of the cold at all, but regardless we decided to go anyway, and I got to spend the next many hours of my time shivering in my jacket and trying not to fall on the ice. Meanwhile my mom and sister were having a grand ole time, skating around in circles and chasing each other. I stood in a corner and couldn’t wait to go home. I started thinking of the heating unit back at home, and it only made me more eager to go back. When we finally did go back home, I shut myself in my room and had the space furnace in my room turned up all of the way. The area furnace quickly got to heating my room up to warm temperatures. After the furnace had heated up my room enough, the skating rink and the cold was forgotten.
