Me too. I will often cut the grass in the hot part of the day. My wife thinks I’m nuts. I seal off my office so its not air conditioned. When I go into the house, it feels like an ice box.
I’m always wary of exertion in the heat and going into a well air-conditioned building.
I once rode my bike from home to a music shop to set up guitar lessons. The ride was a little less than 2.5 miles, and I was wearing jeans and a black T-shirt at the time (bad idea in the summer).
So I lock up my bike and walk in. Pretty small place, and very cool inside. Walk up to the counter feeling fine, but only for about a minute. I notice my vision start to slowly close and go black. I’m grabbing onto the counter trying to keep myself up, leaning down and forward seeing my vision become a small circle, trying to give the guy my address.
Next thing I remember, I wake up on the floor and someone asked me if I wanted an ambulance. With the luck I had (fairly poor luck, and I still have it), I fell on a pedal display on the floor, and had a small cut on my eye socket. If I fell just one inch the wrong way, I probably would’ve lost the eye; I didn’t weigh much but it’s still body weight falling on something extremely important but soft.
I definitely feel for people that need extra care when it’s pretty hot out, as I didn’t know I should’ve cooled down outside before walking in. Heat exhaustion is a terrible thing, and you can also screw yourself up pretty bad if you go down. I think I was around 16 or so, so it would be almost 10 years ago.
