temperature

97.8 F last night;
98.2 this morning.

In high school, my normal temperature was 97.6 F. Votania says to expect that I'll be running a little hotter than normal as I progress.

Any resistor heats up a little depending on how much power flows through it.

Eek. You must have a really slow metabolism.

If you want to feel the power, and raise your basal temperature somewhat, I recommend combining the following ingredients - pick one from each category.
A. Caffeine, theobromine (chocolate), or theophylline (tea)
B. Ephedra, Ephedrine, Amphetamine, Methamphetamine, Cocaine, Methylphenidate, or Phentermine.
C. Aspirin or Ibuprofen (preferably aspirin)
D. Thyroid hormone. I prefer the "synthroid" - levothyroxine (sintrocid)

If you want to be all witchy about it, you can get acetic acid (an aspirin precursor, equally effective but harder on the stomache) from Willow Bark, and Ephedra from Ma Huang. Norephedrine is also obtainable from "Mormon Tea" - the Ephedra Nevadensis strain. Thyroid hormone can be obtained from animal thyroids, in fact the "Armor" brand of it is obtained from pig thyroid extracts. If you have acecss to leaves of Katha Edulis, it contains Cathinone for up to 48hrs after picking and drying, which is a much more potent stimulant than in the ephedra species.
