'Morning, all... Well...afternoon.
The $315 bill was for a month and a half. I left a note on the door letting the roommates know that I need payment by tomorrow and that they have to start turning things off when they leave the room - like the lights and TV - and turn everything off when they leave for the day. I doubt that one of them will pay any heed to my instruction.
I remember my first summer in New York, our electric bills were right around $300/mo. I had never used a window unit air conditioner, so I had no idea how much power they used. Now I know, and knowing is half the battle.
I love "Blow, Gabriel, Blow." It's a great song, and it makes the sick side of me giggle because my mind goes to the double entendre of the title. I know...I'm a sicko.
