I See a Metaphor in There Somewhere

This morning, a pleasantly gloomy, humid morning in Torrance, I walked my dog Gretchen and when I returned my wife Carrie asked me if we should dress our twins in shorts or long pants for preschool. I said it was hot out.

She said, "I don't trust your sense of the weather. You run hotter than everyone else."

I detect a metaphor in there somewhere.
