I meant to ask: when you're awake.
Er, and right now / during the winter. For heat.

I like to be able to wear fuzzy socks and sweaters in the winter.

Under 70 F by default. Usually 60 F when it's not bitter cold out, then up towards 62-64 F when it's getting chilly. I'd rather be too chilly than overheat. (And yes, I've had both frostbite and heat stroke. I prefer frostbite. Pins and needles and burning extremities win out over passing out, choking on air and hallucinating.)

I could be odd; I just asked the maintenance people in my building to turn my heat down. I'm waking up panting from the heat, and that's with my window opened.
