What's your personal normal body temperature?
I always run at 97.6 degrees. Which makes it a bit interesting at times- I tolerate cooler weather a bit better than some (I was just out walking in shirtsleeves, and it was 42 degrees and windy. To me it felt enjoyably brisk!). On the other hand, it takes a bit less for me to feel "feverish"- I felt a hot sweat come on this afternoon, and when I took my temp I discovered I'd shot up to 98.5. It makes me wonder what would be considered critical for me.

Odd, the things a human body can do to itself...

3. Let me just say this
The human species is a trip biologically. So I'm finding out.

I wouldnt be suprized if there was some correlation.

I'm learning hella just following this whole breastfeeding thing. That is a cool system. It is like some sorta Star Trek symbiotic relationship!

:hi:

4. 0.8 Kelvin
It would be lower, except that I cannot keep light from touching me.
