I once asked my grandmother (on my dad's side) what my grandfather was like.

He was a cold person, she said. He didn't tolerate any mistakes.

Like your dad, she'd added. Your dad's cold like that.

I think I'm a cold person. My dad used to tell me I had a cold heart, but this may have just been his amateur medical opinion of why my hands are freezing and, Appa, it's not that my heart is suspended in ice, it's that I have poor circulation.

I don't think you're a cold person at all. I think you're very warm.
