It is permissible to build a fire in a fireplace in October. But no heat yet.

Already, as if on cue, I'm getting itchy winter skin.

Well, it's definitely cooler. High today is 86 F. That may not seem like much, but boy is it nice.
No furnace yet.

I don't even really know what a furnace looks like, or what you're supposed to do with this mythical "heating oil" stuff. My heater is part of my central A/C. I grab the little switch on the thermostat and click it over from "Cool" to "Heat." Which is something I'll do when it gets to be about 60 outside, I suppose. We always have a lot of false starts around here--it'll drop to 55, then the next week be back up to 85, and this will usually happen several times before we really settle into the cold weather.

I can feel it seeping into my skin already.

Having two teenage daughters in the house affects my cultural exposure. So it's not so surprising that this thread reminded me of this:

We coulda used some heat today but ended up just staying out all day instead. I hope we have some false starts...

I read that as "false farts" -- which, you know, might work in a pinch.
