 I walk my dogs in the morning wearing flip flops[1] and a hoodie.
 People wonder how I'm not cold. Living 10 years a couple of blocks from
 the beach in San Francisco endeared me to cold, foggy weather.

 I could walk to the beach, hear the waves breaking from my living room
 and hear the Seals barking at Seal Rock.

 I lived, worked and went to school in the Fog Belt on the west side of
 the city, in the ironically named Sunset district. We had one summer
 where we didn't see the sun all year. You'd start to get depressed,
 then realize that if you drove a mile east, you'd get sunny weather.

 The next year, I remember being at Ocean Beach the day after
 Thanksgiving in a t-shirt. Not a cloud in the sky, and almost 70
 degrees. Odd.
