Excessive sweating, restlessness, inappropriate mid-day yawns&#8230;.this is not fun.<\/p>\n<p>On the plus side, tomorrow is the annual Santa Speedo Run in Boston (a bunch of folks run through the wintery cold streets of Boston in nothing but speedos and sneakers\u00a0&#8211; an event founded here many years ago).
