Electric Bill Blues


It looks like I'll have to get a paper route to keep myself in Chanel. My electricity bill is an astonishing $246.19, and that amount even includes a $20 monthly credit I enjoy for the solar panel on the roof which provides hot water for the house. The bill for the same this time last year was just over $100.

I guess my plan to pay an extra $10 each month for clean renewable energy sources will have to wait until I can afford it without having to turn to a life of crime to pay for it. Too bad.

I better go turn some lights off.

Good for you about using some solar energy! They should credit people more for that...
